“Tim was recommended to me by my mortgage broker. Initially I felt that, despite being a first time home buyer I had done considerable research and satisfied my due diligence. I spoke with homeowners who had moved several times, I scoured the internet. To my thinking, if I went in alone I could secure a better price because the selling agent would be motivated to collect his full commission.

The best advice I have ever received was to sit down and talk with Tim. I soon realized that I did not even know that which I did not know! I will not try to summarize all he taught me here, there isn't room. I will give you the bottom line. If I had proceeded without Tim in my corner I would have made a binding offer on a house that could not be mortgaged (not even the listing agent knew about that). I would have purchased a furnace not up to code that might not have made it through the winter for lack of maintenance. Yikes. Enter Tim, a wealth of information; he is client centered and excellent at explaining the vastly complex world of (what looked to me to be) a "simple house sale".

I hope this review 1) shows the importance of having a realtor represent YOU exclusively when buying or selling and 2) that when searching for a sharp realtor who knows the art of the deal and will negotiate for you with the benefit of tremendous knowledge in his field, (as well as having business contacts all throughout the Kingston area), I don't know if they come any finer than Mr. Tim Barber. You helped me realize the dream of home ownership and prevented it from becoming a nightmare! If I am ever in the real estate market again, I know exactly who I will call first.”

“Graeme McDonald came highly recommended as a realtor by friends of my wife and I. His recommendation turned out to be a key factor that ended our years-long search for the perfect home. From our first phone conversation with Graeme, we felt like we were in good hands. He quickly assessed our needs and shared with us the tools and knowledge that would empower us to make informed decisions and, eventually, prepare a competitive offer package.

Our home-buying journey with Graeme felt very much like a “team effort.” He was always willing to answer our myriad questions with sound advice and effective guidance, which demonstrated his professional experience in Kingston area real estate. We were truly fortunate to have worked with a realtor who is as dedicated, professional, and personable as Graeme; as first-time home buyers, we would have been completely lost without him. It was our genuine pleasure working with Graeme McDonald and we have no reservations in recommending his professional services for anyone’s real estate needs.”

“I have purchased many properties over the years and I can honestly say that working with Tim Barber is an absolute pleasure. His level of honesty and integrity are high, especially in an industry where this quality is very hard to find. You never feel pressured to make decisions, and Tim is always willing to go the extra mile to make sure you are comfortable with all the decisions that are made. There is no other Broker that I would use, and I will continue to use Tim for all my future purchases.”
