ABOUT BARBARA PARLAVECCHIO ORTIS
Since beginning her nearly two decades long real estate career with a “Rookie of the Year” award, Barbara has become one of the most knowledgeable, experienced and respected Realtors specializing in South Broward properties. Living in South Broward since 1979, originally from New Jersey, Barbara is familiar with the character and amenities of each community and neighborhood she serves. Familiarity and extensive networking with other agents often result in Barbara discovering properties before they become available on the MLS.
Barbara’s impressive list of loyal clients and referrals is testament to her expertise, as well as her integrity, attention to detail and reputation among her colleagues for always negotiating toward a win-win transaction. In addition, working equally and effectively with home buyers, sellers, and investors are a testament to her success. Barbara has added many certifications to her credentials, making her an even more valuable asset to her clients in any market situation. Being certified as a Short Sale Specialist, REO Specialist, as well as Broker Price Opinion Certified, only adds to her knowledge and ability.
Barbara has worked for several banks assisting with the sales of their REO properties giving value and turning these properties over to buyers so they may live the American dream of home ownership. Her keen eye for pricing and value has well assisted the banking industry in the sale of literally hundreds of foreclosed properties.
Barbara believes her commitment to her profession, service to her clients and respect for her colleagues is more a privilege than a duty. She considers her time spent as a Realtor more a passion than a job. Her biggest joy, she says, is looking at homes, finding one that is just right for her client, then watching the happiness that new residence brings. For Barbara, each transaction is much more than just a commission, it is an opportunity to shape her client’s future and make a lifelong friend!
Barbara loves all her repeat business and new referrals!
