Barbara PATER
Barbara has lived in Chapel Hill since 1997. She and her husband had decided that they wanted to find the "perfect" place to raise their children. They were living in Southern California, and although it was beautiful, it did not offer what they ultimately wanted for their kids.
She has worked in several capacities and all of her experiences have prepared her to be a great communicator and negotiator. Since moving to North Carolina, and before she became a real estate agent, she worked as a flight attendant with Midway Airlines. That helped her hone her negotiating skills...put people on a plane, and you are in charge of making the best of every situation!
She loves riding horses, dogs, gardening and cooking.
She is high energy and tireless when it comes to either selling a home or finding the perfect next home. She has enjoyed an active and thriving business. She believes everything she has done until now has led her to her favorite career. She have earned the International President's Circle Award with Coldwell Banker 5 years running.
She looks forward to working together!

I cannot express enough how incredible Barbara Pater has been as an agent. While we did not know her before our home search, she is certainly a friend now. We could not believe how accommodating she was in our search, how insightful and well-connected she was, and how committed she was in meeting our needs as a family.
In spite of a challenging market, Barb continuously put us in the best position to purchase the best possible home at an affordable price. We are still convinced that she is the reason why we were able to buy our home, which we absolutely love!

After 30 years in our home in Chapel Hill it was time to down size. Barb Pater was referred to us by a friend, who had recently sold a home, Barb was grate to work with. She always kept us well informed on every showing and answered all inquiries quickly & thoroughly, our home sold & closing date was set, Barb would be away on vacation at the time but assured us she had taken care of everything and she did ! everything went smoothly. What can I say !!! Barb is an awesome realtor & an awesome lady. Thank you Barb

Our experience with Barbara has been exceptional. So much so that we utilized her unique skills to both purchase our home when we relocated to NC and sell our home when we departed.
Barb has years of experience in the business and an intimate knowledge of the local area. We knew nothing of the Raleigh area prior to our move. She found us the perfect home for the right price. When we were preparing to sell our home, her pricing recommendations and home decor suggestions were instrumental in the sale of our home earlier this year.
Barb is a true professional with the utmost integrity - a straight shooter whose only goal is to assist her clients. We would certainly use her services again in the future. The five stars says it all!

It was a very pleasant experience to buy a house with the help of Barbara.
Her expert knowledge and energetic sales approach resulted in a successful search and purchase of a house in a short time period.

We recently relocated from the West Coast and Barb was a great help to us during our transition. When visiting for house hunting, she spent full days with us, showing us around the area and helping us find the right location for our family. When the perfect home came on the market while we were not local, she coordinated many details with us from afar. She worked well with the sellers' realtor and checked up on the property for us before we were able to move in. We love our home here and are convinced that everything worked out because of Barb's professionalism and expertise.

My family and I, my husband, son, & daughter in law, met Barbara as an agent when my son and his wife decided to move to Chapel Hill almost 3 years ago. They did purchase a house with Barbara and they are just thrilled. They love their new home in Briar Chapel and felt well taken care of with Barbara every step of the way from beginning to end. Shortly thereafter my husband and I decided to buy in the same area as my son and connected and bought with Barbara. We are so happy we did. I being a Broker in New York for almost 33 years am very impressed with Barbara and her skills and knowledge. We appreciated how she took the lead and navigated us into our new future retirement home.

We interviewed several agents and Barbara Pater was the most responsive and interested in selling our property. She worked with us to determine the things that needed to be accomplished in order to better show and market the house. She was always respectful of our wishes but gently steered us to arrive at a reasonable price for our neighborhood. We were in somewhat of a difficult real estate situation with our location and competition but she worked diligently to market the house with excellent photos, write up and several open houses. She followed up on potential buyers and in doing so was able to sell the house to someone who had expressed interest previously but then had backed away. We would highly recommend Barbara as an excellent real estate agent. Besides she is fun and delightful to be around.

Anne,
Thanks so much for this sweet review! I absolutely LOVED working with you and Don, and felt as though I had made new friends. I was sorry to see you move! I hope life in Utah offers everything you had here.

Barb Pater helped me to see my mom's home after a very emotional time with her passing. Not only was Barb a true professional, she never lost site of the sensitive and emotional time it was for me. Her photos of the house were amazing and she has a great eye for what needs to be where. Her process with Docusign couldn't be easier! In the future she definitely will be my agent for any real estate transactions. A TRUE professional

Barbara was amazing working with us for both buying and selling our home. She was extremely knowledgeable about the area, things to look for, and how to prep our home for buyers. She was absolutely exceptional handling the selling of our home. We had to move out in a rush, and didn't really have a chance to get the home prepped for selling before we left. She spent an immense amount of personal time into both doing and arranging for cleaning, repairs, repainting, outdoor maintenance, and staging... handling it all while we were not there and didn't have to worry at all. The house looked amazing once she was done, and with her recommendations it was sold at asking price within a week of putting it on the market. Her experience is unmatched, she is open about her opinions and thoughts, and goes the extra mile to make your experience wonderful. I cannot recommend her strongly enough.

Barb was my real estate agent for my home in Chapel Hill. Not only was Barb very knowledgeable of the area but she did an absolute fantastic job of promoting my home and creating demand for it. Her presentation materials were perfectly done and she was a tremendous asset in helping advise and prepare the home for sale. I've sold many homes and without question she is the best agent out there!

We worked with Barb to purchase our farm and really can't say enough good things about her. She is knowledgeable, approachable, personable, professional, and incredibly generous with her time. Buying a home in the Chapel Hill area can be challenging, but working with Barb made it a much easier process. She knows the market and works tirelessly on her client's behalf by staying in front of the market. We fully recommend Barb.

Barbara was fantastic throughout our entire experience. She is very knowledgeable about the geographic areas as well as the neighborhoods within them. She was always responsive and helped us navigate and negotiate during this process. We also liked the other vendors she connected us to, such as title, insurance, etc. I was so pleased with this entire process that I recommended her to my mother, who is also relocating to Chapel Hill. This is the fifth house I have purchased and I was very, very pleased. Barbara was definitely the best Realtor we have ever had.
