As first time buyers, we feel very, very lucky to have had Barbara as our agent!
At our first meeting, she gave us a helpful pamphlet and walked us through the process. Every step of the way she kept us informed as to what was going on and what would happen next, always being very helpful and responsive to all our questions. There was never any pressure, and she really helped us make informed decisions. We actually worked with her for almost a whole year for 2 reasons: (1) Our price range narrowed our options somewhat - but Barbara was always happy to show us all the houses that we were interested in (2) Unfortunately we had to cancel the contract of the first home we chose. This was not Barbara's fault at all. The home was new construction and the seller was simply not able to deliver as agreed. Again we were very fortunate to have someone as experienced as Barbara to guide us through the issues we had. We were able to resolve the issues and get all our money back. Once we finally found the perfect home Barbara helped us immensely, patiently working through some issues that came up, and getting us moved in. We are very happy with our new home and very happy we had Barbara as our agent! We would recommend her strongly to anyone! Doug and Pei Fang, San Jose |
Barbara really knows her stuff and she is easy and pleasant to work with. What else do you need? We had a focused, rapid and successful home buying experience with her.

We searched for a buyer's agent because we wanted someone that looked out for our interests. We found Barbara and we are so happy we did! She made the process very easy while also looking out for us at every step. We dreamed about a nice house in a good neighborhood, but we thought it was out of our price range. With a little patience and a lot of Barbara's help, we found the perfect place! Thank you Barbara!

Barbara helped us buy our first home. She was the perfect buyer's agent for us. She was incredibly responsive, both by email or phone. She laid out the whole process for us, so we knew what to expect and could make informed decisions. She was very patient about answering our questions and doing research on the many houses we looked at. We ended up looking for several months before finally buying a house and at no point did she ever rush us or make us feel pressured to hurry up and choose something. We felt like she always had our best interests at heart, and simply wanted us to find a house that we'd like, at the best price we could get. We especially liked that she didn't just tell us what we wanted to hear, but used her extensive experience to help us make the best decision. We are thrilled with our new home, and very likely wouldn't have gotten it without her guidance. We can't recommend Barbara highly enough. Nerissa & Erik Fremont

Barbara was wonderful throughout my home-buying process. She walked me through each step, and was very responsive, always quickly answering any questions or needs I had. She was also efficient with my time, showing me many houses that fit my criteria in each time block I had to view houses.

Barbara assisted us in buying our first home. She patiently answered all of our many questions about the process and made sure we understood the market. When the right property for us went on sale we were ready to make an offer. There were multiple bids on the first home we wanted, and with Barbara’s guidance we were able to buy the
property at a fair price with no buyer’s remorse. Her knowledge and professionalism helped us to reduce our stress through the multi-step buying process and we enjoyed looking at properties with her. We’re happy in our new home and recommend Barbara to everyone without hesitation. KT and SG, Sunnyvale

When I decided the last minute to look for some place, I didn't have any clue who I should turn to. What I did was to email my friends to see whether they were happy with their broker and whether they were willing to refer their broker to me. The result of the cross-reference came to the name of Barbara...
Barbara is the person who is willing to listen. I didn't realize this until my wife pointed out to me one day that Barbara remembered that she had classes on Thursday afternoon and didn't arrange house-related activities on that day. Things as small as remembering our schedule gave me the impression that Barbara really cares about us. Barbara showed her professionalism throughout the house purchasing process. I was a hands-off person, and she did most of the heavy lifting and tighten up all loose ends. Again, this is important to the first time home purchaser like us. Barbara showed her care beyond the escrow closing, a small gift of carbon dinoxide detector, a useful binder with all the necessary envelops to help us sort things, and a stamp with our names and new address so that we could stamp on our letters. Barbara does not just do business. She made a difference. JM and WF, Sunnyvale

| Barbara truly knows how to take care of her clients. As first time homebuyer’s we were extremely anxious and worried about the home buying process. Barbara was with us every step of the way – answering questions with patience and understanding. We initially worked with a seller’s agent, which proved to be very unsuccessful; but after meeting with Barbara we were optimistic about getting back into the market and immediately she presented us with properties that met our needs. Fortunately within a very short period of time, we found exactly what we were looking for, and with Barbara’s excellent communication and negotiation skills we received the best deal ever!
Barbara goes above and beyond for her clients – from being readily available for phone calls and meetings, to minor details such as ensuring that our refrigerator (in the new house) had baking soda in it before we moved in! We would definitely recommend Barbara Delantoni to our friends and family, and will certainly seek her if we decide to purchase another home in the future! G. O.G. and T.G, Sunnyvale

Barbara was recommended to me by someone I trust and who is as detailed and thorough as I am. I recently bought my first home with Barbara as my agent,and the experience was very positive.
Barbara quickly got a feel for what I wanted and gave me useful advice on various listings. She obviously stays well versed in the current market. She answered the many questions I had about buying my first home quickly and accurately. She independently previewed some properties from listings that had caught me eye and helped focus my search, but she never pressured me in any way in terms of buying. Barbara’s ability to evaluate sale potential and competitive offer prices on properties was impressive. Her role as an Exclusive Buyer Agent helped keep stress to a minimum too. I got to enjoy expressing my enthusiasm about certain properties, knowing she was always working in my interest, and not worrying that it might affect her guidance on what a competitive offer would need to be. It was easy to develop high confidence in her knowledge and opinions. Barbara worked with me through the close of escrow, and I am very happy to now be in my new home. Barbara’s extensive knowledge about the Peninsula and South Bay, both personally and professionally, was clearly valuable during this whole process. Furthermore, she has a good sense of humor and is just nice to be around. I would not hesitate to work with Barbara again in the future or recommend her to anyone that is thinking of buying a home.

We're pleased to recommend Barbara to anyone looking for real estate. As first time home buyers, we found her experience and patience in answering our many questions invaluable. She knows the real estate industry inside and out, and we were the direct beneficiaries of that knowledge. Barbara also has a keen sense of current housing/property valuations, and when we did find the right house, she proved herself to be a fantastic negotiator. We came away feeling that we had paid a very competitive and fair price for our home. Another point that was a source of comfort to us is that Barbara is a Buyer Agent, so we knew her loyalties were with us during the negotiation phase, and she was out to get the best deal for us, not the highest price for the seller!
We recommend Barbara without hesitation. She's great fun to work with and really knows her stuff. HW and JC, Sunnyvale

We would like to thank you for your effort and patience in helping us get our new place... Thanks for keeping our spirits up and for guiding us through the home buying process! Once the offer was made and accepted, the rest seemed simple. Thanks for making it that way... We will certainly refer people your way.R & S A-H, Sunnyvale |
We are enjoying our new house... Thanks you for making the house buying process so smooth for us. We still can't believe that we are in our own house! Feels like buying a house was easier than buying a used car :)SP, Foster City |
