Barry and his wife spent 2 days with us, giving local information as well as showing us properties that homed in on our long list of must-haves as well as "nice to haves". Throughout the process, Barry was always extremely well prepared and accommodating. He created floorplans as well as aerial views of the properties, along with a book of information about the various places we saw. Additionally, his communication skills are topknotch. whether in person or by Email and teleconferencing. We ultimately decided on another geographic location but wish we could have Barry as our agent in Oregon! I have no hesitation in recommending Barry. I know he will make any search a pleasurable and low-stress process. Service provided Showed me homes or lots Area Pismo Beach, CA Year 2015
- Rick PortuneErin and Aaron Burt Buyer Dear Barry, Words cannot express how grateful we are to have you as our "Right Hand" man during the selling and buying process. The task is sometimes such a nerve wrecking frustrating process, but you had the skills to ease our nerves and know what we needed before we knew it. It was so great to have you as a front seat fan as we close and open chapters, we are forever your #1 clients. Aaron, Erin, Dylan and a lot of fuzzy pets!
- Erin and Aaron BurtDarin Grandfield Buyer Barry is the one-stop-shop of realtors on the central coast. His intimate local knowledge and comprehensive understanding of the real estate process made him an excellent agent. He is incredibly responsive (an absolute must for me) and he will communicate very effectively on your behalf. Barry helped me buy a great property in Pismo Beach and he was available to me every step of the way. I've bought a few houses with other good realtors and Barry was the best so far. I look forward to using his services on a rental property I'd like to buy and I will ask him to help me sell when I move.

After signing him as our representative, we were gratified to find out that he is as energetic and positive as he was in the interview. We have sold (or tried to sell) two houses in the past, but our experience with Barry was outstanding. He did such an excellent job of marketing that we had three offers in the first weekend of listing. He expertly helped us through deciding which offer was best, and then he was fully involved in all of the rest of the important phases of the transaction. Barry is a professional, in every sense of the word. We couldn't have been more pleased. Service provided: Listed and sold a home or lot/land Street address: 104 Ruby Ln, Nipomo, CA 93444 Year: 2015

Words can not describe how lucky we were to work with Barry. I would highly recommend him to everyone. When I first met Barry he had done a proposal of the area which was done very nicely. He took the time out to explain the process, always had time for any questions or concerns, day or night. He gives 110%. He is all about integrity and excellence. Extremely detailed and patient and on top of all this, he is such a kind soul. I really can't imagine getting any better service than this. Working with Barry was great. He's smart, personable and reliable. I knew what was happening every step of the way. I don't think I ever waited too long for a return phone call or a return e-mail. Thank you Barry for being so awesome at what you do. I defiantly enjoyed working with you, your knowledge, experience, efficiency is outstanding.

- Kelly and Kimie ChenikCandace Rushing Buyer I just completed the purchase of my new home, and I couldn't be happier! There were a few twists and turns along the way, so I feel really fortunate to have had Barry Brown as my realtor. The home that I ultimately purchased wasn't at all what I had in mind when I started, and yet I know that it's exactly right. Barry was very patient, and I always felt completely confident that he was managing every detail, competently and professionally. In a couple of negotiations, he was able to secure a better outcome than I'd asked for or expected, so I was happy to have him in my corner. Barry's wife, Sherie, did the driving on home tours, and that worked out nicely, because Barry was able to give me his full attention and answer my questions on the way to the next home. In addition, Sherie's insights and observations were very helpful, and I found that having her along was a nice bonus. I highly recommend Barry Brown, and I plan to use his services when I buy my next home! [ link omitted ]

Local knowledge:5 out of 5 Process expertise:5 out of 5 Responsiveness:5 out of 5 Negotiation skills:5 out of 5 Barry did not know this when we worked with him, but I really did my homework before my wife and I started the realtor search. I studied several books on home buying. Many talked about what to look for in a realtor and some things to watch out for. I played a little dumb when I met with realtors to see if they would try to take advantage of us. I was surprised at how many did before we started working with Barry. Barry is amazing. Completely honest, no games, trustworthy, and loyal. All of my hidden test to see if he was truly a good realtor, Barry passed. He then exceeded my expectations of what I was looking for in a realtor. I would work with him again and he is truly as good as it gets. Im confident that anyone who has worked with Barry would tell you the same thing.

- Brian ChavezSandra Svoboda BuyerOur experience with Barry Brown was outstanding in all aspects of the purchase of our vacation home in Pismo Beach, CA. His knowledge of the Central Coast was extremely helpful and he was very kind, professional and patient with all our requests. From the first day that we met until the end of the escrow process he was always available for any questions and information we needed. We certainly recommend Barry Brown, he is a great realtor.
- Sandra SvobodaJohn Livesey Buyer Barry helped us both buy and subsequently sell a house in San Luis Obispo during the time our daughter was a student at Cal Poly. His knowledge, experience, professionalism and just-plain-hard-work were impressive. I don't see how you could do better than doing business with Barry Brown.
- John LiveseyBabs Mondschein Buyer I used Barry as my realtor to help me find the home I am currently occupying. We started off with emails and narrowing down areas and working with ideas as to what would best suit my needs. All the while, Barry knew that I was not even sure that I would actually be moving to the central coast. He worked as hard for me prior to my deciding on a definitive move as he did once the decision was made. I found Barry easy to speak with, a good listener, incredibly professional, knowledgeable, honest and passionate about finding the right home for me. Once negotiations started I was delighted he was on my side. He negotiated an excellent price for the property. Barry was such a joy to work with for the purchase of this home, that I have asked him to be my realtor for the sale of the same home, since I am moving out of state. I have no reason to believe that this experience will be any less stellar than the last.
- Babs MondscheinCharlette Dahl Buyer Patiently worked with me for about 1.5 years to help me find the right home in my price range. Available to show property at my convenience and upon short notice. Gave me factual information about properties and did not pressure me to buy. Provided comprehensive information about the real estate market, properties and the local area throughout the process. I was not in the local area during escrow, and Barry took care of several tasks for me that saved me from having to travel and be away from my work. Provided quick and thorough responsiveness to my questions, requests and processing of documents. Quick to respond to me regardless of time of day or day of the week. I was impressed by the ease of handling the transaction remotely using electronic resources provided by Barry. Coordinated the process and worked hard to close escrow within my moving timeline and the sellers timeline.
- Charlette DahlDon Carrington Buyer Mr. Brown is perhaps the finest realtor I have encountered over my many years of purchasing property. He is thorough, professional, and, above all, patient with the buyer in seeking the exact property that meets the criteria as initially determined. I would strongly encourage anyone seeking to purchase or list real estate in the central coast area to contact Barry Brown and allow him to assist you in reaching your real estate goals.
- Don CarringtonCasey Drexhage Buyer Barry lined up prospects for me when I called him from Stockton on a Saturday morning. I found a potential property on Zillow that morning and he said he would line up a visit and would schedule any more I would be interested in seeing. We drove immediately to Paso Robles that Day and met with him Sunday morning. We visited 4 more sites that day and put in a bid for the first one. He has helped me and kept up contact with me for 5 yrs now. I consider Barry the one stop expert in the Area and have drop his name off to several contacts in case they wanted to search for property in our area.
- Casey DrexhageAl Medina Buyer Jan and I are fortunate in having connected with Barret (Barry) Brown in July of 2013 while searching for a home on the Central Coast of California. He has (to this day) proven to be a consummate professional in handholding us through this stressful and complicated process. I have purchased 4 homes and have not ever felt the level of satisfaction before, during, and after what can be described as a life-altering transaction. He has gone above and beyond and epitomizes unparalleled professionalism. Please feel free to contact me if you need voice-to-voice confirmation of what you can anticipate if you enlist Barry in pursuing your real estate goals. H 805-904-4206

- Tammy Rosell"Barry is definitely a 5 plus as a realtor. He cares about his clients. He never fails to return phone calls or follow up on properties no matter how trivial the request is. Barry treats every client like they are a multi- million dollar buyer or seller. He treats all clients with the same respect regardless of the dollar amount or difficulty of the clients needs. Barry is the only agent we would refer to in the Five Cities area. I am a past broker with almost 30 years experience and over 1400 transactions. My wife is a retired attorney and a licensed real estate agent. Over the years we have had the unpleasant task of working with very unprofessional agents with a complete disregard for their clients needs. These agents are only looking for the rainbow at the end.
