Testimonials

Well you Did it again!

"It's not the agency but the agent that sells real estate!  One can list with the biggest and 'supposed best' but if your agent doesn't work for you, the property will not sell, especially in depressed times.  
You spent both your time and money promoting the property, which resulted in a sale.  And unlike with the initial 'super star' who never talked to agents who showed the property, you talked to each, learning their clients feelings as to price and etc.  I'm confident it was your persistence that ultimately rsulted in the 'contract'.  
Liz and I really appreciate you, your efforts, and integrity.  Needless to say we are pleased to recommend you to anyone needing the services of a competent, hard working agent."
   Fred C.

 "My wife and I wanted to put in writing our recommendation of Barbara DuFour as the best real estate agent we have ever had the privilege to work with.
 Over the past thirty years I have moved my family eight times.  In 2001 I was transferred to Memphis to be president of a local distribution company.  We hired Barbara to be our buyer's agent.
 When we interviewed her she told us that she worked with executives that moved frequently.  She said her job would be to get us into a house we would like, but that we could financially get out of in three to five years.
 In negotiating for the house we bought she bargained for more than I would have asked for.
 We were transferred again.  We hired Barbara and Marx-Bensdorf to sell the house for us.  Despite the slow down in high end houses, and the decline in market value across Memphis, she got us a great deal.
 True to her word, she put us in a house we loved that we were able to get out of in three to five years.  Barbara DuFour is a fantastic real estate professional."
John & Cindy W.

And, judging by the many notes and comments from her clients, that's exactly what she's doing. "She educated, advised and expertly represented us throughout our house hunting all the

And Barbara's clients thank her over and over again by referring their friends and relatives to her... 85 percent of her business comes from repeat clients and personal referrals.

Those who entrust Barbara with the purchase or sale of their home can count on her solid education and 30 years experience buying and selling homes in the Memphis market. She also brings a special skill base to her clients who are faced with relocating in or out of Memphis.

 "I have training and wide experience that serves my clients well in all aspects of  their relocation, both selling and buying," she said. "I am also a certified Relocation Specialist with Leading Real Estate Companies of the World, Weichert, Prudential and many other nationally recognized relocation networks."

Once again, her clients agree. "We were transferred again. We hired Barbara and Marx & Bensdorf  to sell the house for us. Despite the slowdown in high-end houses and the decline in market value across Memphis, she got us a great deal," said John and Cindy W.

As a native Memphian, Barbara also cares about the welfare of her community.

 "I give a portion of each closed transaction to local charities such as St. Jude Children's Research Hospital, the Church Health Center and Union Mission, just to name a few."
