It's All About You and a little about me...

It's All About You:

While it would be great to say that I have 50 listings and am actively working with 20 buyers, I would never let that happen because I would be spreading myself too thin and that wouldn't be fair to my clients. I like to work with a handful of buyers and sellers so I can devote quality time to each of them to help them obtain their real estate goals.

 

My clients' needs and wants always come before mine and I always have their best interests at heart. I also feel it's important to work with both buyers AND sellers so I can experience and understand both sides which helps me be a more valuable Realtor to the side I'm working with.

 

 

and a little about me...

I've lived in Northeast Tennessee for three and a half years and I love it. It's beautiful and affordable and the people here are real. If you choose to relocate here you'll love it too. I truly enjoy the challenge of helping people buy and sell houses and I wouldn't trade my job for anything.

·  I was born and raised in California

·  I graduated from the University of the Pacific in Stockton, California with a B.S. in Business Administration

·  I have an M.B.A. in Marketing from Golden Gate University in San Francisco,  California

·  I moved to Tennessee with my family in 2005

·  I have a husband, Tom, who is a physician in the Pathology residency program at East Tennessee State University

·  I have a ten year-old son, Riley, who loves video games

·  I have a six year-old daughter, Kimberly, who loves Hannah Montanah

·  I feed and clean up after one adorable gerbil and am considering a canine addition

·  I love to travel, try new recipes, drink good wine, read good books and explore old homes

.  I love all these newfangled social networking platforms. Check me out on Facebook, LinkedIn and Twitter.

I Like To Work With....

Sellers: I am enjoying the challenge of helping my clients sell their homes during these trying times and while it is often frustrating, it is also very satisfying when I know that my hard work and marketing efforts have allowed me to place a SOLD sign over a For Sale sign.

I have a B.S. in Business Administration and an MBA in Marketing and I'm not afraid to use them! I follow my own 10-Step Marketing Plan (actually 11 Steps but 10 Steps sounds better) to get my listings sold. I have a variety of ideas that I put into action and I am very organized and great with details. I answer my phone 99% of the time and I return phone calls and emails promptly. I do not have another job (except raising my children and volunteering at their school) so I spend my days getting my houses SOLD!

Buyers: I have worked with quite a few first time home buyers, quite by accident, and have thoroughly enjoyed the experience with each one, although they have all provided me with a challenge or two. I've also had the pleasure of helping many people relocate from out of town and out of state and I absolutely love introducing them to my neck of the woods and helping them find a great home.

Investors: I am tenacious about sleuthing out investment properties for my clients. There are tons of investment opportunities here in E. Tennessee because of the many colleges and the medical community. If you're looking for an investment property to rent out or to fix up and sell down the road, there are many options here with new listings coming up almost every day.

What Johnson City Tennessee Homeowners Say About Me...

• "Mrs. Barklow is well-organized, technology savvy, and attends to every detail in the selling of our home. Importantly Kelsey is personable and demonstrates the highest ethics in her profession. We recommend her entirely." - A Seller

 

• "Kelsey Barklow was of huge help to me in purchasing my first home. She was available at all times of day, and was willing to go above and beyond to assist me in my purchase. Kelsey has a gift at being knowledgeable and accommodating without being pushy. I really appreciated the time she invested with me in helping me find my perfect new home." - A Buyer

 

• "First, without hesitation, I must say that you are the hardest working realtor I have ever met.  Thank you so much for all the time, effort, professionalism and hard working dedication you gave to me as your client after listing my condo with you.  You went above and beyond to do all you could to get my property sold in a professional and very timely manner.  Not only did you check on it often to make sure it was presentable at all times, but you also did several open houses with lots of advertising to get as many as possible to come and see it.  Thanks again for a real success story and for being so dedicated to your work.  I will gladly refer all of my friends and family to you and would use you again as my realtor in the future if the opportunity arises." - A Seller

 

• "I accepted a job in Johnson City and planned on relocating from Washington DC to a rental. Kelsey did a fantastic job in giving me a tour of the area, highlighting the various communities and housing options.  I had planned on renting for the first year, but I found a house and fell in love with it. Kelsey went above and beyond in helping me to realize my dream of buying this house.  Buying a house long distance can be a nightmare, but Kelsey was there every step of the way from making that offer, to the closing. She made sure all the details were taken care of. No home purchase can without glitches, and mine was the day I was moving down. I discovered that I would have to stay in a hotel for three days. Not an easy task to accomplish with a dog and a parrot. But while I did the seven hour drive down, Kelsey helped me to find a hotel that would accept pets and then get utilities turned on at the house. There wasn't any detail too small or too insignificant that Kelsey didn't help me resolve.

  I highly recommend Kelsey to anyone looking to purchase a home, especially first time buyers. She is knowledgeable and very caring.  She is more than a Realtor, she is a caring person who is committed to her clients. She helped me realize my dream of this house and that was no easy task." - A Buyer

 

• "We feel lucky to have Kelsey Barklow as our Realtor and friend. We would highly recommend her to anyone looking to buy or sell a home. We are first-time home owners, and she really went the extra mile to walk us through the process and help us find the perfect home. She is always very accessible, and there was never an issue too big or too small for her to handle. She has been a wonderful asset to us during this process; we never felt overwhelmed or uninformed. Additionally, Kelsey is a wonderful, intelligent person with a great personality and a wonderful heart.  When Kelsey is your Realtor, you truly are in capable, caring hands." - A Buyer
