Obviously, I think she does an excellent job. I have referred her to several friends moving to Florida. All are as pleased with Diane as I am. To begin with, Diane is very responsive to all your needs. You never have to call her to remind her that something must be done. She is always ahead of the process. When I was initially looking for property in the Sarasota/Bradenton/Lakewood Ranch area, I cannot tell you how many real estate agents I reached out to for assistance, and none responded as quickly and professionally as she did. Once I met Diane, I never needed to look for another agent. She knows the local real estate market. For all the services you may require for purchasing or selling (home, roof, pest, or pool inspectors, etc.), she knows dependable service people. In my opinion and past experience with Diane, she is the best you can get for your partner in purchasing or selling real estate.
We are from out of state and she made herself available whenever we needed her. Diane made the sale of our condo a very easy process. It was on the market for ONE WEEK and closed three weeks later. We also purchased a new condo in the same area and she went above and beyond, handling many details that we could not, due to our not being in the area. We are looking forward to enjoying our new vacation home in Florida. We would highly recommend Diane as your choice for a professional, knowledgeable and understanding agent.
I was impressed with her level of knowledge and the amount of data that she provided about the market and the area I was seeking. It was a no-brainer for me to work with her and RE/MAX Alliance Group since I was set on buying in Lakewood Ranch and I’m so thankful I did. Diane Barrington was ALWAYS available for questions and concerns. Her responsiveness was incredible. Buying a new home is difficult enough but to accomplish that dream while still living up North is only attainable by having a realtor that has your best interest at heart. I highly recommend Diane Barrington to make your dreams come true. She went above and beyond for my family and I am forever grateful.
She was so knowledgeable about the market. We purchased out of state and I felt that I could trust Diane's opinion and support throughout the whole process. She is always willing to discuss options, pays attention to details and explains everything. Most of all, she 100% has her clients back. There has not been once that I have not reached out and within an hour things are taken care of. Even now I know she is only one phone call away!
We engaged Diane to sell our home in Lakewood Ranch, Florida recently. She met with us, told us exactly what was needed to prepare our house to sell, put us in touch with reputable vendors to make some minor repairs that were needed and gave us informed guidance as to how to price our house to garner maximum interest. Diane was in constant contact with us and provided timely feedback from showings and made suggestions about adjustments we could make to improve results. I am certain that it was through her dedication and attention to detail that we received a great offer within just a few weeks, but her efforts did not end there. Diane kept us informed through every step of the sale process. She was with us until the very last box was packed and we drove out of town. I can't imagine that there is anyone that could have done a better or more thorough job for us. If you are looking for a Realtor, whether buying or selling, you want Diane Barrington. Period. "
We've purchased and sold several homes over the years in Michigan, Colorado and California before deciding to move to Florida. We purchased a home and sold it six years later with her as our realtor. She is a phenomenal agent and has exceeded our expectations. Her attention to detail and knowledge of the Lakewood Ranch/Sarasota area has been incredibly helpful. Diane is a constant professional; kind, responsive to calls, emails and is always available. She is easy to work with and provides objective data and tons of information on the comps in the area. Her proactive approach makes the buying/selling process very easy. She takes extra steps that other realtors we've dealt with don't (but should). Diane is always on our side working to make the transaction as simple, smooth and successful as possible. My husband and I consider her a close friend and have highly recommended her to family and friends. Our daughter and her husband hired Diane recently to sell their home (which she sold in 3 days!) and put a contract on a new one.... They were very pleased with her along with knowledge of the choices of schools for their young children. If you're searching for a new home or thinking about selling, you absolutely cannot go wrong with Diane.
She provided us with helpful guidance every step of the way and ensured we understood all aspects involved. Thank you again Diane!
She worked with us while we were still in Michigan. When we arrived in Florida, she already had showings for us to see. She is an extremely knowledgeable real estate agent and was always available for us. Even after the purchase she helped us connect with local services and vendors. We would highly recommend Diane Barrington to buyers and sellers. Jim and Cheryl Hess
Second time we have used Diane for our real estate needs. 1st time 9 years ago to purchase our home in Lakewood Ranch. We were moving here from NY. And our second to buy investment in Lakewood National.
She exemplifies professionalism, possesses extensive knowledge of the real estate market, and was unwaveringly committed to finding me the perfect home. Whether it was exploring resales or new builds, Diane's expertise shone through, demonstrating her proficiency in both areas. Throughout the entire process, her communication was exceptional, and she consistently went above and beyond to address any concerns I had, particularly during negotiations. I truly felt supported and advocated for every step of the way. Thanks to Diane's expertise and tenacity, I was able to secure the ideal property within my budget and timeline, nestled in a family-friendly neighborhood. I wholeheartedly recommend Diane to anyone seeking a dependable and effective real estate agent familiar with the Sarasota and Lakewood Ranch areas, including specific neighborhoods and schools.
She is the ultimate professional, handles every detail and negotiated a price that was $10K higher than two similar condos that sold in the same time frame as mine. And the offer came within 10 days . I could not be happier.
She helped us navigate the purchase of our Florida home. Being out of state residents, Diane was invaluable in managing the process. After closing she also lined us up with trades people to refresh our home before taking occupancy. She is very knowledgeable and pleasant to deal with. We highly recommend her
I can't say enough about our wonderful experience with her. Her knowledge and professionalism ensured smooth, stress-free transactions all at prices we were very happy with. We would never consider a real estate transaction without Diane's help!
She has helped me with the purchase of two properties in the last couple of years and they have both gone smoother than I ever imagined. She's always on top of it and negotiated on my behalf for things that I didn't even know I needed/wanted. She is the best and I would 100% recommend working with her.
She was with me every step of the way through a new build and such a strong advocate during the process. She is readily available and such a kind and caring person to work with. I am thankful to have met Diane and would highly recommend to all. She is simply amazing!!
I know she always had our best interest in mind. Great attention to detail and very knowledgeable. Would highly recommend her.
Her many years of professional expertise, strong familiarity with the local market, incredible attention to detail, and delightful personality make her one heck of a realtor. No matter how nerve-wracking buying or selling can be, she remains optimistic and steady. I'm grateful for all her hard work and for always going above and beyond- I can't recommend Diane highly enough!
Extremely hardworking and knowledgeable. She helped find our dream home years ago at a price we could afford, which we thought impossible. When our circumstances changed years later she helped us sell quickly and easily at an great price!
I trust Diane as her experience and skills in this market are second to none. Diane asks the right questions and is able to find properties that fit every time. Her attention to detail ensures a 5 star transaction with each purchase and sale. Thank you Diane. I am very grateful.
In 2010, she found me the perfect condo, working tirelessly for 4 months across 12 states to find me the perfect condo in Sarasota, Florida. When it came time to sell that condo this past year, I immediately called Diane and worked with her again, to get her advice about getting the property up to snuff and getting it on the market in a timely manner. We sold it within 5 days in a smooth-as-silk sale. All thanks to Dianne!
She is knowledgeable about the market,. Extremely thorough, and has her clients best interest in mind. She helped us find a beautiful home and made the process seamless.
She was very proactive throughout the whole process of purchasing our new home, guiding us through each step of the process and providing the support and contacts we needed for a successful close and to ensure we were completely satisfied with our new home. She and her team were always available with immediate follow up and resolution to our inquiries and requests.
She successfully assisted us in the purchase of our very first home in FL. Will definitely be giving her a call for our next home purchase.
..she took the time to understand what it was that we wanted for our home. Diane was patient, knowledgeable, knew the area very well and such a pleasure to work with. She was consistent and readily available to help us from our first phone call all through to closing. We would highly recommend Diane Barrington as a Realtor. Julie & Perry - Massachusetts
