John V Barker

Real Estate Broker, MIRM, CSP, RESNET & Equator Certified

What sets me apart from other real estate agents? I’ve been in this industry since 1988 completing over 1000 transactions. My clients receive the benefit of that experience plus my tool kit of cutting edge technology, negotiation techniques and industry contacts.

I moved to Western Washington at the age of 18, anticipating it would become my permanent home, over the years the region and I have changed and grown together. My career has always been real estate. I was excited to start on this path when I was 19 and I am still excited when a new client contacts me today. I have literally assisted with the purchase and sale of every kind of home from a trailer to a high-rise luxury condo to an estate property with acreage. Though based in east King County, my diverse client base has taken me to areas outside the tri-county region, such as the islands and eastern Washington, my childhood home.

I feel fortunate that I can enjoy so many wonderful things about this area; from boating on Puget Sound, kayaking on Pine Lake, running my dogs at Marymoor Park, RVing in the North Cascades or trail biking Duthie Hill. A large part of my life revolves around my life in Sammamish with my two rambunctious Labrador dogs Tucker and Polly.

Since 1988 I have been actively serving the public as a Broker throughout the Puget Sound region of Western Washington assisting countless people acquire homes combined with representing some of the top home regional home builders including Harbour Homes, Chaffey, Murray Franklyn, Lozier and Polygon, Blackwood Homes along with many other corporate clients.

Over the years I discovered that having different life encounters, both good and bad, affords me an understanding and connection with my clients during the life changing experience of buying and selling their home. Real Estate is a tricky road these days. I am honored to have this opportunity to be your experienced advocate and guide.

TESTIMONIALS


“

John made the process easy and stress free.

He went out of his way to get docs to us and provided great advice through the negotiation.
He responded to us within minutes day or night and was honest through the process if we were
making an error or wanted to ensure we had all the information going in.

Above and beyond service: Simply awesome.

I am a professional real estate investor and John is the best realtor I have known in 40 year.
I was out of the country when some unexpected circumstances developed. John was a true
professional and arranged for workman to handle issues. He is reliable like none other.

From the moment I met John I knew he was a great realtor and a nice guy.

He gave me the information I needed without being pushy about selling me a home.
He seemed genuinely understanding of our situation. His confidence made me feel like
he would make our dream of home ownership a reality. Thank you John for all your help
in getting us into our dream home.

Would HIGHLY recommend!

Had the opportunity to work with John on two occasions over the past 10 years, once when
purchasing the property and again to list the property. On both occasions John went above
and beyond in my opinion, he is a true professional.
