Very pleased with Barbara and would recommend her. She answered / got answers to our questions in a timely manner. Very helpful through the closing process with a title company (not her selection, the seller's) that is average at best. Thank you!
Barbara was recommended by a friend and she was amazing. She made our first home buying experience a pleasant one. She was kind, patient, knowledgeable, and understanding. She walked us through the ups and downs of the process and made sure we got the best deal for our dream home!
My husband and I were looking for a home and had to find one quickly. Barbara made it happen. She made herself available anytime we were available to look at homes. Also being first time home buyers we weren't sure what we were doing. Barbara walked us through every step. She was always very honest with us. We had a budget and our wants and that's what she stuck too. She never tried showing us something we couldn't afford. We couldn't have been happier with her and would recommend her to everyone. We were hesitant about the location of our home but she told us that the area would grow in value and we have been in our home less than 2 years and are able to sell for a profit. There is a reason why she does her job and it's because she is great at it!!
Barbara worked with me persistently over the past two years helping me to find a home - early in the morning before her coffee or late in the evening on her way home from work, Barbara was always ready to get to work. Barbara was professional, highly knowledgeable, and furthermore, a fun person to be around during the stressful times of looking to purchase my first home - I'd recommend her to anyone.
We were very pleased with Barbara and would enthusiastically recommend her. She answered all of our questions, calls and emails in a timely manner and we appreciated her knowledge of the local community.
Barbara is a true professional and a delight to work with. She is knowledgable, organized, and an effective communicator with her clients as well as the other agents. Barbara made herself available to us during the sensitive times of our negotiation and we felt very confident with her representation. We highly recommend!
About six months ago, I was searching for a condo/townhouse close to TCU. Not knowing Fort Worth, I contacted the agency and Barbara was assigned to my search. Barbara clearly understood my requirements and the price point. She was thorough in her search, regular in her communication and clearly demonstrated that she was advocating on my behalf at every step of the way. I a now the proud owner of a town home in a sought after neighborhood close to TCU. I highly recommend Barbara because of her professionalism, honest pleasant and no nonsense dealings. She made my purchase experience extremely pleasant. I am sure to call upon her for all my future needs and highly recommend her to folks searching property in Fort Worth. Thank you Barbara!!
I cannot recommend Barbara enough! As a young buyer, I was very upfront with her regarding the fact that this could be a long process, and that if she was patient with me we would reach the finish line together. And after 4 months of searching, she made sure I ended up in the right property! She hung in with me as we toured house after house, listened to my comments and concerns regarding specific features, and ended up helping me expand my list before putting me in the right home. She took the "no dumb questions" motto to heart and made sure I had every question answered satisfactorily and taught me so much about the process. She was also an incredible asset in the negotiation and closing of the home, making sure it smoothly! I've already recommended her to several of my coworkers, and will most certainly call her again should I ever decide to move!
We had a great experience with Barbara. They came in and filmed our house using the high tech matterport technology. Once we had an offer, she was great at negotiations and we were happy with the outcome. We had a bit of a high maintenance buyer but she handled them with grace and skill while being firm. She was great at communicating with us and I appreciated her positive energy and ability to remain calm while we were having a meltdown. I highly recommend Barbara as the person to sell your home.
This woman is amazing. We were relocating out of state but wanted to find a place first so that we didn't have to live in a hotel with our dogs. Barbara took the time and effort to look at the houses we wanted her to. She showed us houses using FaceTime and took her time to look for any problems that would stand out. She never rushed us and did everything she could to help us in our situation. She met me at the title company to sign paperwork, which was great. When it's time to buy again no hesitation would I contact her again.
Available, professional, friendly. Offered list of vendor contacts for needed repair work. Willing to follow through on my requests for plat info, survey, adjacent neighbor info, inquiries of seller/seller agent.
Barbara gave an honest assessment of the improvements we need to do to make the house a must see for potential buyers. She presented us an accurate list price for the house based on the sales of the houses in the neighborhood and gave us an extensive check list to use for showing the house. The pictures of the home were very professional and included a 360 online tour. The house had solar panels, that provided an extra layer of complexity in the sale and she was able to assist us in getting the closing process completed in a timely manner. We got everything we wanted in the sale of the house could not be happier with our experience.
Very friendly and knowledgeable in all areas and related to the market. Gave great suggestions! Personalized service and very accessible. Helpful in getting repairs and inspections completed and made sure we kept on schedule for everything.
Barbara stream-lines the whole process! She was always on time and answered any phone or text promptly. She also went out of her way to prepare a housing list to compare homes similar to the one we were considering buying in order to help us know if we were making the best decision. She always had a recommendation on any additional service needed including inspectors and so on. She was absolutely perfect in helping us buy a home.
I never expected I would be in for such a fight when I found the home of my of my dreams. But, boy what a roller coaster ride it was. I'm so glad Barbara was there to keep me calm, guide me in the next strategic move, and stand by me when the negotiations got tough. Barbara is a consummate professional with the right amount of diplomacy, sass and humor. She has a firm grasp of the art of the real estate deal. Whether you're selling or buying, you'll be glad you have her on your side.
Barbara Tumlin is absolutely excellent! We purchased a new build home, from out of state. The entire transaction from start to finish was smooth and very professional. Barbara is always available to answer any of our questions, requests and assist with any necessary steps.
Barbara did a fantastic job finding us our new home. She started off showing me around the area and houses that fit what we were looking for in a home for our family. We spent the better part of two weekend looking at everything in the north Fort Worth area. We were able narrow it down to the few we were interested in and finally to the one we wanted to make an offer on. With Barbara's help, we decided on the offer we were going to make. After taking Barbara's advice on the offer, the seller's counter offer was better than we had hoped for originally and we accepted the counter. Since we had a very tight timeline, Barbara also recommended a lender who was able to get everything done very quickly. Her recommendation for the home inspector also did a great job. In less than 30 days we went from making an offer to moving into our new house. From the first meeting to the walking in the front door of our new house, Barbara was right there with us every step. I would highly recommend Barbara for anyone moving to or from the Fort Worth area.
The purchase of this home was our very first and heard many horror stories. It didn’t help that we basically went through the purchase process via email, long distance phone calls and numerous photos of the build because my family and I were in Okinawa, Japan. However, we would not have chosen a different realtor or realtor company through the course. Natasha and I felt you had our best interest in mind to ensure the process went smooth. Thank you for that! We love our home and sincerely appreciate your help in obtaining our home of our dreams! Natasha has been busy taking care of it and finally has grass growing on our yard. It took some time, but it feels like a home with our belongings in it. Please stop by our home if you are ever in the neighborhood again, it would be nice to catch up.
We are writing on behalf of Mrs. Barbara Tumlin, a realtor with Kirk McDonald Realtors. Mrs. Tumlin has been the epitome of diligence and accommodating when it came to helping us look for a house. Almost immediately, we found a house that we fell in love with, and within a short time, with the help of Mrs. Tumlin, were able to acquire a new home. She made the entire process easy and stress free, knowing that we were in the hands of a capable and hard-working realtor. We would have no issues in working with her again, and in fact, would look forward to it in the event we seek a new home in the future. We recommend her without hesitation.
Barbara Tumlin is a wonderful advocate for her clients. She is calm, professional and extremely well informed. She presented several options and possible homes in the area we were looking in. Our neighborhood is old and some of the homes required careful inspection by specialists. She provided appropriate lists of resources we could draw upon. We enjoyed working with her and would not hesitate to highly recommend her to other buyers. Thank you very much, Barbara.
As stated before, our experience with Barbara was nothing but “Perfect”. From our first walk through to the closing she was professional and personable at all times. Each issue we had with the house was dealt with swiftly and with the results we desired. If we ever purchase another property here in Ft. Worth we hope it’s Barbara that has to “put up “with us. We especially appreciate the care after the purchase she has given us. The names of people to help us when the need occurs have been perfect. From a 1-10 this experience has been a 10 Plus. Our relationship with Barbara has continued over the years since. We know that we can call her and she will send us in the correct direction for "After care" of the house.
Working with my Barbara Tumlin made what might have been a challenging experience - as a first time home buyer - an actual treat. She is a fantastic Realtor - efficient, thorough, enjoyable, insightful, patient and constantly in communication with all the parties in the process. Kudos for a great job. All our thanks to Kirk McDonald Realtor and Barbara Tumlin.
