Most people remember me by my slogan and not my name. I'm Jill Barsky, the "Pet Friendly Realtor - Finding Homes for People and Animals". That's okay with me as I feel honored to have the privilege of combining my two passions - helping animals and selling real estate.
Recently, I was profiled in the New York Times about my penchant to help stray animals and furry friends in need. I was quoted as saying, "if I see a loose animal, we will stop house hunting and assess the situation...The joke in my office is that if you are working with Jill and you don't have a pet - you will by the end of the transaction".
My firm belief that one must give back as one gets. Part of every one of my commissions goes to an animal rescue league of the client's choice. I also spend many hours volunteering for a number of animal-related organizations. I believe that it is not only important for me as a Realtor® to find you your DREAM home but, HOMES for other 4- legged clients as well.

For those of you who are not yet familiar with Jill Barsky, I can assure you
that working with her has been a very positive experience!? She is the most easy
going person, very up front about everything, very knowledgeable, and NEVER
pushy.? I especially appreciated this as a first time home buyer.? She was very
patient with me and took the time to explain everything (sometimes multiple
times) until I understood.? I feel that she really?went above and beyond to take
the time necessary to make?purchasing my first home a success. ?Her values and
integrity?are more important to her?then?any commissions or status.? She is a
realtor because she loves to see people's dreams of buying a home come true.? It
is always important to her that things be "right".? Inevitably,?the process of
purchasing a house can get hectic, yet she?remains focused.? Her love for
animals is endearing and you can see proof of this in the time and donations she
gives to help them.??If a?good, honest, knowledgeable realtor with many years of
experience is what you are after, then Jill Barsky is the realtor for you.? She
made my dream of owning a home come true and she made it a pleasant experience.?
I will never forget what she has done for me... we are friends to this day.
Sincerely,
Derrick Baranowsky
I first learned about Jill through her work with animals. But, I will stick with Jill and recommend her to my friends due to her devotion to her clients! I was a first time home buyer, and completely clueless. She went out of her way to hold my hand throughout the entire process. She even spent hours on the phone with my father, working the #'s and reassuring him that it was a great deal. I LOVE my new home, and more importantly, my cats love it too!:-) I recommended Jill to a coworker, and she just raved at the service Jill provided, and how much she loves her new home. I will definitely work with Jill for my next home purchase. ---Eric in Rockville
Jill is the best. I've known her since 1995 or so. We are great friends and she has been my agent through the sale of 3 homes in Maryland, 1 purchase in Maryland, and she was also an enormous help to my wife and I when were purchasing our home in North Carolina. Jill is so much more than a real estate agent. Yes she knows the business inside and out. Yes she knows the area inside and out, but she goes so far beyond the sale. She makes buying and selling a home an absolute pleasure-the way it is supposed to be! She is a wonderful person. She is extremely bright, very smart and an absolute pleasure to work with. I wouldn't consider using anyone else and highly recommend her to anyone thinking about buying or selling their home.

We had the benefit of working with Jill Barsky for our real estate purchase. Jill was very thorough and responsive. She is very experienced and knows exactly what to do to help benefit her clients in the real estate process. You never get the feeling in working with Jill that she is out to make a sale - the feeling you get in working with her is that she's helping individuals and families find the perfect home to meet their budget and needs. She knows the areas she works in extremely well which his very beneficial in knowing what areas to rule in or out when looking for a home. She has a tremendous list of resources she trusts as well, if a family needs this, which I found extremely beneficial (i.e., electrician, plumber, etc.). She is very patient in showing homes and goes above and beyond the call of duty in many cases. Jill has a tremendous reputation among those that know her. I would highly recommend Jill Barsky to anyone seeking a responsive, trustworthy, patient, experienced, knowledgable and caring realtor.
