'Barbara did an outstanding job. She listened to me, worked with me, kept me abreast on every thing going on, she made sure all my paperwork or questions filled up properly, and answered I would recommend Barbara to sell your home all day'

Every homebuyer should experience “The Barbara Treatment”. My husband and I are transplants from SC and we were fortunate enough to get Barbara Oskam as our realtor. She knows her stuff and is on top of her business! The ultimate professional! We never had to wait on her for anything throughout the process. She literally thinks of everything and made sure all of our questions were answered in a timely manner! She is extremely knowledgeable in the business and did her homework for each and every home visit. We saw MANY homes and as my husband and I picked each one apart, Barbara patiently waited and answered every question we had. She is certainly first class and we couldn’t have asked for a better realtor! Make sure during your homebuying (or selling) process, you get “The Barbara Treatment”! I would recommend her 10 times if I could!

Barbara is Amazing! She is so honest, looks out for both the seller and the buyer and is straight to the point. Not only did she help me with my demanding deadline to sell my home, but she was also understanding and still looking out for me throughout the process. I made a great deal during my sell and also made a friend during the process. I am so lucky to have worked with her. I highly recommend her! Go get it Barbara Keep "Closing Deals in High Heels!"

Barbara did an amazing job helping our organization sell 4 townhomes in the Tampa area. Her responsiveness was a welcome surprise as she always kept us in the loop. Additionally her ability to accommodate our needs were unmatched. She knew our priorities and requests and made sure to express that to all interested parties. I believe that we got the best deal on the sale of our property. Barbara is someone that we look froward to working with again in the future.

I would highly recommend Barbara for any real estate needs. Barbara is very professional and knowledgeable in her field. She helped us in a huge way as we were moving from Ohio to Florida, and she was there for us every step of the way. Barbara went above and beyond my expectations and was a strong advocate for us during this process and even after the sale was complete, she was still following up on items that were unresolved while we were in the process of moving. I don't think I could have found a better real estate agent and was very pleased to have had the opportunity to work with Barbara.

When first exploring the sale of our Bayshore property, we contacted multiple realtors. Barbara immediately impressed us with the seriousness with which she took our initial inquiry. While other agents showed up to our initial meetings ill-prepared, Barbara came with a detailed analysis. She arrived at our first meeting having conducted thorough market research, including a list of comparable properties, recommendations on pricing, and a draft marketing concept for our property. After listing the property with Barbara, she proved just as hard working and dedicated in marketing and showing our home, always keeping us informed along the way. After accepting an offer, she kept us abreast of where we were at in the sales process and what was required to complete each step. She maintained open communication with us through and even after closing, answering all of our questions along the way. While task oriented, Barbara is also very personable, getting along well with us, other realtors, and even the property association. We highly recommend her. If you are considering buying or selling, give her an opportunity to speak with you about your property before listing with another agent. We have no doubt she will impress you too.

Met Barbara through an unrelated Facebook group and then met her in person a couple of days afterwards on a trip to Florida. The intention of that trip was to look around neighborhoods and get an idea of where we might want to live. Barbara quickly understood our housing needs and timing with moving. As we flew back to the Northeast (where we lived at the time), Barbara took the initiative to reach out to the principals of the elementary and middle schools to see what would be needed to enroll our children should we move here. This is just the first of many examples of how she goes over and above what can be expected from a realtor. She is extremely proactive in anticipating the needs of her clients. For instance, without us asking, she provided information on how to estimate property taxes, how to do homestead exemption and referrals for insurance and lenders. She tirelessly served as our local representative with our builders and attended onsite inspections in our absence. We bought our home within two months of meeting Barbara and could completely focus on selling our home in NJ, knowing that Barbara would safeguard our interest. Through this process, she has become our friend. Highly recommend her! Anu & Dan

"Barbara was tremendous during the process of buying my first home! From day 1, she was very responsive, knowledgeable, and so sweet! She is eager to help you, friendly, and easy to talk to! She will be an advocate for you and help you in any way possible. She even came to closing with me! I appreciate Barbara and will stay in touch with her, definitely want to have her again when I buy my next home!" Kennley E.

After interviewing several realtors in the Tampa Bay area, an acquaintance recommended Barbara Oskam. From the initial phone call until we parted ways after closing, Barbara was hands down - spectacular. She is patient, listened to our wants/needs, provided us guidance when we asked, advocated for us in every interaction with others, hardworking (answered all my texts all the time), and most importantly, knowledgeable. If we had a question and she was unsure, she used her vast network to find us the answer. Barbara consistently exceeded our expectations in providing feedback, guiding us through the entire process. She shared our excitement when we purchased a new home and checked in with us periodically to see how our move from out of state to Florida was going and if we had any questions or concerns she could help with. If you’re looking to work with the best – your search is over, connect with Barbara Oskam. * Sarina & Mark

Barbara is excellent! Very easy to communicate with (emails, texts, calls), responds promptly, and goes above and beyond to help find the house you're looking for and making the process/communication with the sellers very smooth. - Alex
