She is such a go-getter and made communication a breeze. Jamie was super fun and fantastic during the whole process as well. He showed us over 30 house and knew exactly what to look for. He was extremely knowledgeable on what repairs would cost and what we should pay attention to in buying a home. He ended up taking us to more houses than on our list, and by doing that, we found our dream first home. Without these two helping us every step of the way we wouldn't have had the outcome we did.

This process had more then fair share of obscure obstacles but Julie was transparent with us every step of the way.

Their experience and knowledge of the industry is top notch. They both truly care about their clients and went above and beyond throughout the entire process.

Even after a few frustrating set backs with this crazy market… he consistently showed up with optimism and professionalism. I know we weren’t his only client but he made us feel that way.

They went above and beyond - especially considering what a crazy market we’re in right now. They guided us along the way and never left us in the dark as to what to expect each step of the way.

Experiencia fantástica: The Barnes team took such good care of us in buying our first home. They take the time to make sure you understand everything about the process, and make themselves available to you whenever you need it. I KNEW I was searching for a needle in a haystack with everything I wanted in a home, and the Barnes team had patience with us and kept assuring us to “not worry” and that we WILL find our home. And we did. And it’s perfect and exactly what we were looking for. BUT WAIT! THERE’S MORE! They don’t just help you out with buying your home, they are there even AFTER you settle in. When our AC blew, they stepped in with the right people to call. When we wanted new floors, they had the people that could do it. They never forget a birthday, or a Home anniversary. They make you feel like family, and for that, I will ALWAYS use the Barnes team, and refer them to my family and friends. Thank you guys for being so wonderful to us.

Experiencia fantástica: Vanessa and her team made the selling of our home in Champions Gate a pleasant and stress free experience! Although it took longer than expected, their encouragement and positive outlook reassured us at every turn! Thanks, Barnes Team!!

Experiencia fantástica: The Barnes Team was amazing with their communication and helping me find a home. They were always prompt with responding and answering any questions I had. We were rushed for time to look at houses as I was buying from out of state to move, but they were always accommodating and willing to look at houses virtually or look at soooo many houses in one day. Great people to work and and I felt like a valued client.

Experiencia fantástica: The Best!! Vanessa and the rest of the Barnes Team were incredible. Not only did they help us sell our home quickly, she helped us find our new home quickly and was an advocate and help to us throughout! We couldn’t recommend Vanessa and the team more highly. Ultimately, she cares about people and wants them to experience the best. Selling and buying a home can be stressful, but they supported us throughout both processes. No way to say thank you enough!!!!

Experiencia fantástica: Vanessa and her team went above and beyond time and time again. In a hot market when timing is everything they came through. Setting appointments, conducting showings and writing offers were great.

Experiencia fantástica: The whole experience from listing to closing was done very professionally and the communication with her entire team during the entire process was by far the best experience I have had.

Experiencia fantástica: Awesome experience with the Barnes Team I specifically worked with Raymond Nicole who was our agent from the Barnes team. Everything about the experience was great. He advised us against buying in certain areas as he was very much knowledgeable about it and gave us pros and cons on certain properties. He always made time to go out and give us an amazing virtual tour for the numerous properties we looked at remotely. We didn't feel like we missed out by not being in Florida for the home buying process. His experience showed throughout the process and made us feel at ease about every step of the way. Looking forward to working with the team again in the very near future. If you are looking to buy a home, Ray is your guy.

Experiencia fantástica: Vanessa (Barnes Team) has been great! They continue to be extremely helpful. We have purchased 2 homes from Vanessa and both times have been out of town during the walkthrough. They have been very helpful with providing all the information we needed to make informed purchasing decisions.

Experiencia fantástica: Very satisfied and highly recommend Vanessa and Jamie Barnes were the perfect team who helped us find a home that met our needs. They were honest, professional and knowledgeable. We are from out of state and it took us a while to finally decide where we want to be. They were very patient and Jamie was always willing to show us properties even on live video. All the paperwork were well executed by Vanessa until closing and Jamie did all the inspections and walk through for us. The Barnes Team is the best!

Experiencia fantástica: A great team! We used Vanessa, Jamie and their team for the sale of and purchase of 2 homes. They were informative, stayed on top of everything. Answered all our questions regarding the sale and purchase. Jamie is the eagle eye of the team when it comes to the walk-thru. Excellent service, we would highly recommend them for either the purchase or sale of a home.

Experiencia fantástica: Thank you for helping us buying vacation home at Florida. Under COVID, everything is well organized and smooth through phone and email communication. We appreciate Vanessa and her teams due diligence. Highly recommend their service!

Experiencia fantástica: The Barnes Team is a 10 star team!! Before we drove out of our driveway in Idaho, Vanessa was hard at work searching for our new Florida home. When we arrived she had a schedule set up of homes for us to see. She took our wish list and turned it into a reality. Then we met her husband Jamie, he inspected each home we saw and took time to answer all of our questions and gave us valuable advice. He is really amazing and very knowledgeable!! Then you add in Mariah from the office and you have the 10 star team. They are always helpful and quick to respond to our questions. They made buying a home in Florida a great experience!! You can’t do better than the Barnes Team in Celebration Florida!!

Experiencia fantástica: Very professional, experienced. Highly recommend.

Experiencia fantástica: I recently listed my home in Kissimmee with Vanessa and her team. She was available to answer any questions and also answered questions I didn't ask. She knows exactly what needed to be done and was proactive instead of reactive which is amazing. If I were to buy in Osceola or Orange county, I would definitely go back to Vanessa and her team!

Experiencia fantástica: If you’re looking for a realtor, look no further!! The Barnes team namely Jaime and Vanessa did a marvelous job finding me my family home. If I’m to type everything it’s going to be an award winning story. Vanessa and Jaime were very helpful every step of the way. They listened to my needs and tailored my search, gave great advice and kept my timeline. They went above and beyond for me. Being pregnant at the time Jaime and Vanessa would schedule houses, look at them and video call for my convenience. It got to the point where I trusted them totally to view the houses and give me feed back as they were now seasoned to my taste, wants, likes and dislikes. Jaime would check the houses for everything I saw as no no and I would get nothing but honesty. I never once felt like they were rushing me into a home I didn’t want. And when it came to patience and understanding it can’t express my gratitude. I would fall asleep and miss appointments (being pregnant) but I could still be sure that my appointment was kept, and would wake up to my updates and concern text messages and calls. I could call or text with any concerns I had and I would get them resolved. Vanessa and Jaime are very warm and welcoming. They were easy to reach and talk to. They became my new family. I would never trade them for another realtor. My gratitude is beyond words!!!! Thank you once again Jaime and Vanessa!!!! Best realtors around

Experiencia fantástica: I recently worked with Vanessa to sell my home. She was very professional, responsive and thorough throughout the process. From start to finish, her attention to detail was quite impressive. I highly recommend Vanessa and her team to anyone looking to relocate to or within the Orlando area! Great team! Thanks, Vanessa!

Experiencia fantástica: Vanessa and Jaime just helped us close on our dream Florida home while we were 1,300 miles away in Illinois! Literally going above and beyond at every step along the way to make things as easy on us as possible! The very first thing I noticed when talking to Vanessa was that she genuinely cares about your experience. Her motivation is she absolutely loves her job and loves helping people and it's extremely apparent when you are talking to her. She gets excited at the fact she is able to help others find happiness. Vanessa and Jaime have gone so far to even check on our property AFTER closing because they know we haven't moved in yet. This little thing means the world to me and my family. Vanessa is one of the most genuine people I've had the pleasure to speak to. She is a great negotiator, makes sure you have 100% of the information 100% of the time and presents you with multiple options so you can make informed decisions! We've not met in person yet but she feels like a long time friend and part of the family. Jaime is a wonderful human being! He does not let things slip through the cracks and is not afraid to point things out during home inspections, walk throughs, etc. and he will make sure the builders know they need to fix issues that he points out. I honestly can't fully express how grateful I am for Vanessa and Jaime. They've honestly changed the game when it comes to being a real estate team and I will never buy another house without The Barnes Real Estate Team on my side.

Experiencia fantástica: 4 years ago I had the experience to work with an amazing team. I gave them specifics of what I was looking for and they came thru. Smooth process. Would recommend them to anyone.

Experiencia fantástica: Vanessa is amazing! She was our realtor when we bought our first home in 2012, so when we decided to sell, we knew we would work with her again. My favorite things about working with her, is her level of patience. We were going back and forth on selling our house for over a year and she never rushed us and waited until we were ready. Oh and they treat clients like VIP, with very thoughtful gifts and personal touches! They truly put the client first.

Experiencia fantástica: They helped me buy my dream house

Experiencia fantástica: Amazing customer service!

Experiencia fantástica: Today was the sale of my home after loving it for almost ten years. Vanessa helped me find it all those years ago and helped me sell it in 3 days when I was ready to move on. Sadly I am moving away from her. She is the best you can find! Thank you

Experiencia fantástica: Thank you for helping us buy our first home! Your patience was so appreciated and we're so pleased we found the perfect home for us. Your knowledge of areas in Central Florida, building quality and the mortgage process made the experience enjoyable. We knew you were on our team from the start and you made us feel comfortable and confident during the whole process Thank you, thank you, thank you!
