Leslie was extremely professional and knowledgeable regarding the real estate market in our area! She always kept us up to date with inquiries and any questions! We wish she was the real estate agent when when bought the land and our home. We highly recommend Leslie! When we retire out of country in a few years, she will have our home to list. Burnt Store Title, who she recommended was excellent as well! We couldnt be happier!
Lesley Navigated the most insane and difficult circumstances around the sale of my mothers home wyn grace, dignity, compassion, professionalism, attention to detail, dedication and knowledge that landed us 85k above asking price for a home that was being sold as is after hurricane damage.
I cannot express my gratitude enough. I would recommend her services to anyone and everyone selling or buying my home with absolute confidence they would be in the hands of one of rhe beat in the business. Run dont walk to work with Lesley. You wont regret your choice ever!
Couldnt have asked for a better experience in buying a home. We are snowbirds with training, wheels, and Lesley, in fact, her whole team, was exceptional. We not only got insights on the regional marketplace, but we also got specific knowledge virtually block by Block.

We can't say enough fantastic things about them. Lesley is extremely knowledgeable, professional, and goes out of her way to help in any way she can. Selling a house is always stressful, but Lesley made the process so much easier. I would never buy or sell a house in the Punta Gorda area without her!
I have bought a lot of houses over the years, Lesley was hands down the best realtor I have ever dealt with. Incredibly informative and honest. I would rate her an 11 out of 10 !!!!!!
Working with Lesley was an absolute pleasure. As a client she makes you feel extremely cared for, has great communication, and fights for the best on your behalf. Just sold my first deal with her, and am in the middle of signing another listing with her.
Ive been working with Lesley over the past 6 years through various purchases and sales and not only is she a pleasure to work with, her knowledge of the area and ability to quickly adapt to the changing landscape of South Florida Real Estate is exceptional. Her caring nature, work ethic and communication skills have been the foundation of her award-winning Real Estate career. Look no further than Lesley. She will not only meet your needs, she will exceed them.

I recently had the pleasure of working with Lesley for the sale of our waterfront land, and I am delighted to share my overwhelmingly positive experience. Being a real estate agent myself in another state, I had specific criteria for an agent, and I was fortunate to find Lesley, whose approach closely aligns with my own business practices. Lesley managed the transaction with an unmatched level of professionalism, dedication, and expertise, ensuring a seamless and successful outcome.
My Moms home was a challenging sale. The market had change so much that her adorable, update and water property just wasnt selling. After taking the advice of Lesley and Berle, we dramatically reduced the price and it sold right away! Bottom line - listen to your agent and price it right from the beginning!
Thank you Leslie Barton for selling my house. You are truly exceptional and your level of knowledge, promptness and communication is impressive You never let me down and was always available to answer all my questions and concerns.
Lesley Barton is a fantastic realtor, bar none. Lesley helped sell our double lot in Port Charlotte, FL. Not only is Lesley a top notch agent, she is an expert in her field. Lesley and her team are the best in the area, hands down. Her knowledge of the market, professional business contacts, regular communications with us throughout, availability, and her never-give-up attitude have made us fans for life. If you are looking for a realtor that genuinely cares about delivering an above average and positive experience, then you need to contact Lesley right away. Youll be glad you did!
We definitely picked the right agent!! Lesley and Berlie worked diligently to find the perfect house for us! Hold onto your hat if you choose this team.....they are COMMITTED to the task. We used the word 'unbelievable' to describe this duo more than once. They were determined to find us just the right home to fit our needs when we ourselves were not even sure what that was. Non-stop energy (we saw 13 homes in 1 day, and #13 was it!!) and a champion with a challenging negotiation. We truly believe we wouldn't be in a home we LOVE, LOVE, LOVE today if we would not have contacted Lesley who, *BONUS POINTS*, answered her phone on the 1st ring every time we called!! You would be doing yourself a disservice to use anyone but Lesley!!
Lesley did a great job! She was attentive to our price range and our needs. She sold our home in about 3 weeks in a questionable market, for a price we were happy with. Lesley stayed on top of our sale from the beginning to closing day. I recommend Lesley if you're thinking of selling your home, you won't be disappointed.
Leslie preformed at a high level for us throughout our entire sale process. While many agents of her caliber spend little time and attention on transactions less than $100K, Leslie proved to us that she has a tremendous focus on all transactions both large and small. Leslie kept us apprised throughout our transaction on details to allow us to close the transaction at the lowest cost to us, and (most importantly) in the most the lowest expense to us as the seller. We will recommend Leslie to many of our friends that look to buy or sell a property in the greater Punta Gorda area, and on a scale of 1 to 10 on her performance, we would rate Leslie's work a 15!
Lesley and crew were AWESOME to deal with on the sale of our Condo!!! We had a couple of issues and she and her team handled/resolved them with true professionalism!! Thanks Again!!!!
Lesley & her team have been through so much with us! Even after Hurricane Ian ripped through our property her team was patient & persistent. Our property finally sold today!!! We are so grateful for them all!!!!
Lesley and her team did an incredible job in selling our home. She is incredibly knowledgeable of the area and its many assets as well as the technical requirements for a successful real estate sale. She has a great talent for successful negotiations. We were happy and grateful with how things turned out. Thank you Lesley & team for all your help!
Experience is a must. While many have experience not everyone has experience in how, where and why youre selling. We wanted someone who would listen to us and not be pressured to sell just because. It took some time to sell but we got the price we wanted and it was no hassle and stress free. (And no delays)
Leslie and her team did an amazing job with the sell of my home. Sold in 28 days! I will always have her help me with my slice of Paradise. Great job for all of them
Leslie Barton was the best realtor I ever worked with plus she is efficient and moves quickly to get things done. Not sure I could have sold my house so quickly without someone like her who from start to finish oversees everything and gets it finished quickly. Kudos to Leslie and her team especially Berlie Hochmuth who is her right arm lady.
Berlie Hochmuth who is Leslies right hand woman handled our sale. Berlie was helpful, great communication and got the house sold fast. Will definitely use the Leslie Barton team again!
Lesley Barton helped sell my property at a fair price. Lesley knows the market, knows the business and knows how to communicate with her clients. I am satisfied with my experience and recommend Lesley highly. She will keep you informed, provide insight and get your property sold. Lesley is the best!
Lesley Barton is knowledgeable, professional and thorough. Lesley priced my property to sell but at a good price. She kept me informed of all offers and assisted me along the way. I highly recommend her services and will use her again for my real estate needs.
We have worked with Berlie in the past and are happy with her knowledge and excitement with regard to our needs. Leslie along with Berlie are a great team. We will definitely use them in the future.
I was looking for a secondary home that I could also VRBO when I was not in town. I had specific criteria of low HOA fees, not extremely restrictive but maintained, close to a convenient airport, not far from the beach and had to have a private pool and lanai in a well kept neighbor. I am a Realtor in my home state, but I needed someone local to be my eyes and ears as I was doing showings virtually. We made a plan and adjusted as we needed to. I closed on my property 6/9/23. Leslie and her team made sure my requests and needs were met. I have already referred more buyers to her!
Leslie showed great perseverance during a difficult property to sell. She was able to identify serious buyers from non-serious buyers. This helped in saving time and money.
Lesley and her team went above and beyond throughout the entire home buying process. There was never a request too big or too small. Not only did she spend an exuberant amount of time assisting us in finding the perfect home, she handled every single detail promptly day or night, even making showings happen after hours due to our hectic schedules. Lesley spent a great deal of time learning and understanding what we as her clients needs were and was promptly able to notify us or remind us why a property would or would not work for us. Due to her deep knowledge of the market area as well as the market in general, we were able to have 100% confidence in her ability and the advice she provided was spot on. We have searched for a realtor that would go this far above and beyond for a long time, and we knew from the beginning that the right paths crossed. The proof was in the results and we couldn't be happier in our new home. I would highly recommend Lesley and Berlie for any of your real estate needs, large or small. You wont be disappointed.
Lesley Barton is an excellent realtor. Her knowledge, professionalism and dedication to her clients is amazing. Lesley reviewed my properties and made recommendations on selling prices that were realistic, not over inflated to get my listings. Lesley communicates extremely well. She kept me informed of all offers, issues and signed contracts! She negotiated on my behalf when we got offers to maximize my return. I listed three properties with Lesley, have closed on one and have signed contracts on the other two. Lesley does her due diligence on offers and provides good feedback on the viability of closing. Overall, a wonderful experience and I highly recommend her as a Realtor.
Lesley is great to work with! We purchased a home with her, and recently sold another home with her help. She did several open houses. The sale took several months, but it was finally accomplished.
She helped me so much with all aspects of my closing and is extremely efficient on the in's and out's and also at filling out the paperwork and contracts quickly. Wonderful personality to go along with it and precise!
Truly a professional who cares to provide the best services to clients. She knows the best selling points in the markets she services. I trust her without question and could not consider any other person and company. I am sold on her energy to do the right thing for me, her client. Thank you.
There is no one as caring and positive as Lesley. Even after the hurricane she was messaging to check in on my family and my home. She was providing info for disaster relief on multiple levels. Her team was amazing and did everything they could to assist with the sale of my home. A BIG thank you to all of them, and especially my beautiful friend, Lesley.
Leslie was the best! Very professional and was able to navigate and guide my parents to closing in one of the trickiest of market challenges. Thank you for everything; not only for taking such care in the sale of their home for top dollar, but just being there for the littlest things that mean so much. :) The Lundvall Family

Lesley and Berlie are the best. They found a buyer for our home in one day. Took care of everything from start to finish unbelievable awesome service!!!
We have worked with Lesley and Bernie on multiple properties. Their customers services is top notch. They are there to support you from start to finish!!!!
Leslie was extremely helpful in assisting us find our new home in SW Florida. Her team and staff are there for you to answer questions and her persistence was beneficial to secure our choices as quickly as possible. Would highly recommend Leslie to represent you as a realtor in Florida.
Lesley and her team provided the expertise and guidance we needed. We had no knowledge of Florida life and relied heavily upon Lesley and Berlie to guide us. We ended up going under contract while evacuating sue to Ian. Lesley didnt miss a beat even providing sources for us to find a safe haven during Ian. Her team focuses on lifestyle choice not just finding a house. We came to count on her ongoing guidance throughout as we didnt know anything about flood zones, termites and other particulars that come with purchasing a home in the sunshine state. Thank you from our family as we feel grateful for the gift you given us - finding our own slice of paradise pie and a lifestyle to match!
Lesley and her team were absolutely the best . Professional and Personable I highly recommend Lesley Barton to handle the sale of your home . Use the best and have no regrets ~
Lesley Barton and her Team truly Saved the Day. To keep the story simple she came into our situation and cleaned up the pieces and worked harder and more diligently than anyone could have asked for! Choosing the right realtor will make all the difference when it comes time to sell or buy a home. Dont make the mistake of using anyone else ! Lesley and her team will get the job done and I always felt like I was in the most competent hands ~8 Thank you Lesley and your team and associates for working so hard !
Back in the day I was a seasoned Realtor with my own successful team (23 years). Until I met Lesley Barton I never came close to finding someone who shared my attention to detail and personal interest in doing what's best for the client FIRST. Lesley exceeded my own expectations. She was always available, never hesitated to stop whatever she was doing and take care of our needs or answer our questions. She was ever present and in our corner throughout negotiations and the entire process of closing on our new home. If you are looking for excellence your search is over. Call Lesley Barton!
A wonderful experience Lesley helped my husband and I purchase our second and third lots in Port Charlotte/Englewood for our future vacation home! She was with us every step of the way and really had our best interest at heart! I wouldn't us anybody else, but Lesley!!
Lesley helped my husband and I purchase our second and third lots in Port Charlotte/Englewood for our future vacation home! She was with us every step of the way and really had our best interest at heart! I wouldn't us anybody else, but Lesley!!
Lesley did a great job finding multiple properties for us to check out.Properties that net our criteria.She has great enthusiasm and a positive attitude.She was also informative about possible scams.Unfortunately,those do exist.We really appreciated her knowledge and guidance!
Lesley's knowledge base in real estate is extensive and her ability to explain what is needed and going on through the whole buying process was always explained to our understanding. With so much to track during lot purchase, home builders and working with environmental issue, Lesley was the lead and she ensured things got done to completion. Her availability and dedication too staying in touch with us during all of this was beyond approach. As stressful as it can get Lesley never lost focus or lost our trust. Lesley Barton and her team (Burlie) are truly the BEST EVER. It was our pleasure to have found her and get to know her and will continue to turn to her.
Lesley and her team helped us sell our luxury home and purchase a new home and land. Every step of the process was handled professionally and courteously. She was extremely knowledgeable regarding market trends, pricing, negotiation tactics and proved to be an excellent resource for referrals to other services. I would highly recommend Lesley and her associate Berlie to handle all your real estate needs.
Lesley works hard to make sure everything that is needed is done to make your escrow close smoothly. We worked with her for over six months, and during that time we wrote two offers and had both of our offers accepted in this sellers market, a 100% acceptance rate which is pretty unheard of these days. I attribute this to Lesleys assistance in helping us craft competitive offers that were not ridiculously over priced, but strong in other areas of our offer. One of our escrows fell out because the houses condition had issues after inspections. I appreciated how she made sure to get inspectors out there ASAP so we could know the condition of the house before that contingency time ran out on our contract. Because of this, we were able to cancel the first escrow without losing our deposit. With inspection turn times being so far out these days, the inspections could only be done so quickly because of the relationships Lesley has with local inspectors who make Leslies clients a priority. Our second escrow that had multiple offers closed smoothly in a month. One last thing I appreciated was her search tool that gave us automated notifications when listings in our ideal location and parameters came up, allowing us to schedule a virtual showing with her friendly showing agent, Berlie, right away and get our offer in quickly. Overall, I can say with full confidence Leslie is knowledgeable, attentive, and a strong negotiator. If you are local or out of state, Leslie is a great choice.
There are no words to describe how professional and knowledgeable our agent is. Lesley went above and beyond in her duties as a realtor. She did her job, the job of the sellerss realtor, and even the lender. Our sell almost didnt go through because our lender turned in the paperwork late, but Lesley made a miracle happen. We are so grateful that she was an agent. I would recommend her 150%
We appreciate that our purchase was secured during a sellers market. We also appreciate that she recommended competent workers who were helpful in inspecting moving and making necessary repairs. Her assistant was present every time we needed her for inspections, walk throughs, interior decorators, etc.
We live in California and recently purchased a property in Florida. With her expertise, the purchase transaction was closed smoothly. Anytime when we had questions, she provided answers promptly and works efficiently. I appreciate her advice and would highly recommend her service to anyone.
My house sold and closed within 11 days of signing contract! This was only the second house I have listed in 50 years and the help and guidance I received was unbelievable! Thank you Leslie and Kimberly!
Lesley made what's normally stressful a wonderful experience. There was never a question or call left unanswered. It was was a pleasure having her working on our behalf. I will highly recommend her.
I haven't really "traditionally bought" a house before. I assumed my last home, so the process was intimidating to me. Once my loan was pre-approved, again, lost. On a whim, I asked Facebook. The responses were overwhelming to go to Lesley Barton. So I did. Lesley walked me through everything. Including my ridiculous schedule. After I visited the home (I eventually bought), Lesley took over. If there was an inspection or something needing to be done, she got it. I was constantly being updated on every aspect of home buying process. Look, we missed a closing date by 4 days (VAs fault). I met, for the first time, my step sister. If we closed on the original date, I'd have never met her. It was meant to be delayed. Yeah, y'all go see Lesley and Berlie. It'll be the best home buying experience. 2021

I would summarize our experience with Lesley Barton and Kimberlie (Berlie) Hochmuth as excellent. Leslies knowledge of real estate in our area is unmatched. She and Berlie are true professionals, always putting our wants and needs as her priority. They were both fast to react to our requests, and were flexible to our sometimes changing needs in looking for a new residence. I would highly recommend Lesley, and her team, because they will satisfy the needs of their clients - without a doubt.
Lesley assisted us in navigating the real estate market in SW FL to select the best neighborhood and home for us. Berlie was patient and made our search enjoyable and fun.
Lesley is prompt, professional and super positive. I would recommend her to anyone and have!!!! She really has her finger on the pulse of the area, has many contacts and is a huge problem solver.
I have purchased a few properties through Lesley and she will continue to be my go-to real estate agent in SW Florida. Her consistant availability to me throughout the entire transaction process was top knotch as well as her follow through to closing on the land.
I chose Lesley to handle my offer and purchase of my home in the historic district in Punta Gorda. She was knowledgeable and tenacious in the process. She clearly has helped many buyers over many years. She knew just how to negotiate with challenging sellers and their realtor. Lesley was focused on me as the buyer, and available any time I needed information or had questions. She proactively provided information that helped me make informed decisions. I selected Lesley as I had a positive experience with her counterpart in the agency up north as well as learning Lesleys previous experience. I am really pleased; Lesley exceeded my expectations and provided excellent customer-centered guidance coupled with expertise in complex real estate transactions. She was awesome!
Lesley and Berlie were always reachable and provided sound advice in the purchase of our home. They both went above and beyond in showing us the area and helping us pinpoint what where we wanted to be. Worked with them remotely from California and in person over the course of six months to locate our piece of paradise.
Lesley goes above and beyond any realtor. The service does not stop after you close on house. She will help with anything you need. She has lots of knowledge.
My husband and I were shopping for a second home in Punta Gorda Florida and having Lesley made the entire experience a huge success! Despite the distance, we live in NY State, we felt like we were right there for everything. Lesleys in depth knowledge of the area and the market nuances enabled us to make sound decisions. When it came time to actually be on the ground and tour homes we were able to find our dream home and we couldnt be happier! Lesley is the most professional agent we ever encountered, thank you so much for everything you did for us! 2021
I met Lesley while escaping the brutal Michigan winters in 2019. We were JUST beginning our research into purchasing or building here in SW FL. With her upbeat personality, attention to my every question, and her patience with my lack of knowledge..I knew Id found a good match with my realtor. I spent 2 winter seasons in FL in a fifth wheel and last year in a Cape Coral rental, all the while picking Lesleys brain about building codes, available properties and reputable contractors and tradesmen for our hopeful project. 3 seasons3 .I asked so much of this highly knowledgeable and extremely motivated woman; she answered every question and guided us toward the best people for our needs. Returned phone calls within minutes, extremely efficient and well connected with local businesses. What a blessing for us! August 2021, we finally tied up our loose ends here in Michigan and began a REAL home search. With the market demanding immediate action and response, Lesley investigated all our homes of interest, steered us clear of the big issues = bad homes and we ended up bidding on and landing the best home for us. Lesleys intuitive guidance coupled with her keen prowess regarding the navigation of complicated Florida real estate was the ONLY reason we won our little slice of palm tree bordered paradise. Accurate, agressive and quick is essential in this game and Lesley executes this well as the pro that she is. Even after the sale, she has been a GREAT help to suggest and coordinate our tradesmen and contractors for the anticipated improvements of our 50 year old home. I would not hesitate a moment to recommend Lesley and her team for any real estate endeavor. Im grateful for her expertise and consistently offering her valuable time and advice. We are thrilled to be her clients and now, Florida friends!

I met Lesley when I was inquiring about a house early on in our search for a home in the Punta Gorda area. Seeing that we lived in upstate New York at the time and were searching from a distance it became beneficial to have great agent on site. Lesley isnt just great, she is an AMAZING, OUTSTANDING, DEDICATED, KNOWLEDGEABLE, ACCOMPLISHED agent whose guidance through this process was everything we could have hoped for. Lesleys knowledge of the area was tremendously helpful. She could describe to us the vibe of different neighborhoods and areas, what to expect in the way of amenities and services, ease of getting around just to name a few. She explained to us the differences in the purchasing process in Florida compared to other states, providing us with crucial information that helped us in our search. Any questions we had were answered in a timely manner and with attention to detail at the highest level. Im writing all of this as Im sitting on the lanai of our new home in Punta Gorda. Once we had found the house that full filled all of our requirements, Lesley negotiated the perfect deal for us. My husband and I couldnt be more pleased with our experience with Lesley and members of her team and have no hesitation whatsoever recommending her to others. Lesley DELIVERED and we are loving life in Paradise!
I recently contacted Lesley Barton regarding the sale of a lot I owned in Port Charlotte, Florida. She was knowledgeable about property market in the area. She explained the whole process of selling the property, the costs involved, and who would be contacting me for the closing. She made me feel comfortable through the entire sale. I would highly recommend her as the sales agent in selling or purchasing property. I really wish her the best in all future endeavors!
Lesley was amazing! We were looking for some property to buy for a future 2nd home. Lesley was extremely knowledgeable, experienced and knew the area so well. Her expertise really put us at ease. She was so helpful, it took away any stress or worry we initially had. This was the first time we'd ever bought vacant land. I can't say enough about what a pleasure it was, working with Lesley!
Lesley goes above and beyond of what I had expected. She was knowledgeable of the market and informative to the point of no surprises. She was instrumental in helping us find the home and making it happen. Her expertise didnt end with the sale as she provided us with service companies to repair and maintain our property. I like the way she was on top of things and communicated with us throughout the whole process. Lesley makes home purchasing a lot easier. Im glad we found her through a referral from friends.
My wife found Lesley Barton approximately 1 year ago. Lesley was with us every step of the way from start to finish. Lesley is extremely knowledgeable and knows the SW area of Florida like the back of her hand. Lesley fought for us and will fight for you! Highly recommended with the experience and know how.
I recently purchased 2 additional lots through Lesley and as always, she saw this effort through to the end. This purchase was particularly difficult due to the lots having 2 separate owners, one of which was a no budge, buyer pays for title costs. She hooked me up with a solid title company at a reasonable cost. I used Lesley in the past and will use her in the future once building commences. She is extremely busy but never too busy to ensure her clients are kept up to date on status and sticks with it to see the sale goes through. She is a hard working, knowledgeable agent who goes above and beyond for her clients.
Leslie was Fantastic! She got $30,000 over asking price on our home by setting up a 3 day bidding war (bring your highest offer) She told us the best way to stage our home. She sent her Top Photographer to take the Best pics! Shes actually on 2 MLSs so her listings reach more people! She was in contact with us throughout the process! I would definitely use her again!
Lesley went above and beyond her duties.She is extremely knowledgeable and was helpful in all phases of our selling process..She not only got is several offers,she got us offers above asking..She got us 30k above our asking price..That was so incredible..Lesley is the best out there and we definitely will use her again when needed..She not only was our realtor ,she is like family to us now ..We stay in touch with her and will continue to do so ..
Lesley did an outstanding job in staying in touch with me regarding my recent property purchase in Florida. She took extra steps to understand my wants and needs pertaining to location and price. She also was exemplary in providing a comprehensive knowledge of the Florida Real Estate market. I highly recommend Lesley and her team as a leading Real Estate consultant and sales person.
Very thorough and knowledgeable regarding Florida property . Lesley was attentive to every aspect of my buying process. She understood my needs and concerns then matched that with the qualified properties. She was also able to smoothly navigate me through the closing process. I highly recommend her as a efficient real estate consultant.
Greg and Dana Townsley , a seller from Punta Gorda, FL
Lesley was our agent in the purchasing and the selling of our home. She did a fantastic job walking us through the whole process and could answer any questions or problems we had during the whole experience. We would highly recommend her to anyone needing an agent for buying or selling a home. 2020
I had the privilege of working with leslye, on the purchase of my home! She was thorough the entire process and continues to aid me in issues coming up as a new homeowner! I give her the highest rating not only as an agent but as a person who truly cares, and is not in it just for the business sense! She is outstanding! 2020
We were interested in purchasing a home in Punta Gorda but lived out of state. The current market made it seem impossible to pull off until we contacted Leslie. She walked us through the process. At each step she contacted the service providers we needed. For example, what does insurance cost on a particular home? In 24 hrs. Leslie had us three quotes. She also had the contacts to get quotes and ultimately service providers to fix the issues from the home inspection report. She stayed in close contact with us and ALWAYS returned calls immediately. I didn't have to research anything. I forwarded all my questions to her and she found the answers. It took most of the stress out of the process. She even follows up with you after the closing to continue making the transition to the area an easier process. I feel she definitely earned her money.
Leslie has a vast knowledge of the area, construction, flood levels, etc. We were out of state buyers and she made sure we made a sound decision. She is not overbearing but instead educated us on differences we may not have known about the locality. She went above and beyond with insurance quotes, repair estimates, and lender selections. She worked with all of these folks to make sure all was done. I cannot recommend her enough! Superstar Realtor!
This is the third property I have bought with Lesley. She provides me with all of the information I need to make educated decisions throughout the whole home buying process.
Leslie was great to work with in finding our Beautiful Florida Home. She is a real go getter & knows to get stuff done!! She set up all inspections we needed, any appointments with repairmen & was able to connect us with local companies for several things we needed. She is extremely knowledgeable about SW Florida & even after moving in she is still helping us with getting around town & is available whenever we have questions:) Her personality is Happy & Upbeat, you can instantly tell she Loves her Job & Living in Paradise here in Sunny Florida
Wrecking ball in a good way! She answered questions faster than I could ask them. She communicated often and always kept us in the loop. She was all over the inspections and any seller responsibilities. Very familiar with the area and market.
I recently closed on the sale of my townhouse in Punta Gorda Fl. She responded quickly to all my texts, emails, and phone calls. Her knowledge of the Real Estate Market In SW Florida is second to none. I would recommend her to anybody buying or selling real estate. She is exceptional in all areas.
Lesley is a true expert at what she does! She truly cares about her clients and forms lasting relationships with them. She always goes beyond what's required of her to make sure her clients have the best experience possible.
As trustee of a CA trust which held a home in FL, I needed a professional that could be an honest, straightforward, and capable individual to do everything necessary to get the house sold at a fair price. This was no small task- the house had been held for 15 years and had not been maintained. Doors didn't lock, sliding doors fell off tracks, too many dogs had ruined carpeting, the pool heater was broken, and the house was dirty. Lesley assessed the condition of the house and pool and recommended professionals I needed to improve the home so that it could be sold. She gave me SEVEN professional's names and numbers, each one gave excellent service, promptly. They included a professional cleaner, door repair, pool inspection and repair, plumber, electrician, drywaller, and probate attorney. This woman has the years of experience and connections that exemplify the ideal professional realtor!
I am a local attorney in Charlotte County. Lesley did a wonderful job selling my clients home for the highest price. She made the experience easy for the them. She worked well with both attorneys involved and always kept us fully informed in the process. She would immediately return my phone call or email as well as my clients phone call. Lesley went above and beyond for my clients in this difficult time. I would absolutely recommend her and will use her services again in the future.
Thats what it seemed like. She was always available, and she answered my many questions. She prepared me for each step of the process, and kept on everyone to make sure everything went smoothly. I would highly recommend her without reservation. Shes a lot of fun to be around, as well!
We went to look at open houses and met Lesley. We hit it off right away. We ended up buying a house in Punta Gorda Isles. Lesley is thorough and kept us in the loop of what was going on and what we needed to do. Lesley is personable and easy to get along with. We highly recommend her for your agent.
Lesley Barton is knowledgable in all things Florida. She is always willing to share her expertise with her clients, who soon become friends. She hears what her clients need, and does everything within her scope to fulfill thier real estate dreams in a timely fashion. She walked us through the various Florida state laws and issues as our purchase came to fruition. We highly recommend Lesley Barton!
Had about 15 realtors talk to me 2 years ago trying to make me sell for a lower price not concerned about me but their commissions. Then i met Lesley who went above and beyond to help me out with my needs. She listened and delivered no nonsense approach.
I have dabbled with real estate strictly as a consumer and have never met a realtor like Lesley. She was referred by a friend and I am so grateful for that. I cannot say enough to express how great she is! Buying property in a different state is difficult but Lesley made the process easy! I will always be forever grateful for her! I could list the reasons why but no need it was everything about the process. I looked at 11 properties in 2 days, it was a marathon but the end result I now have a beautiful home in Fla because of her and super happy
As a buyer Lesley is always looking out for our best interest and takes care of the entire process for us. We are going to use Lesley as our Realtor again and again!!!
My family and I have always dreamed of living in Punta Gorda. My meeting with Lesley not only resulted in the purchase of our first condo in Burnt Store Marina, but she left such a positive impression and shared so much about Punta Gorda that our dream is finally becoming a reality.
I chose Lesley to handle my offer and purchase of my home in Punta Gorda. She was knowledgeable and tenacious in the process. She clearly has helped many buyers over many years. She knew just how to negotiate with challenging sellers and their realtor. Lesley was focused on me as the buyer, and available any time I needed information or had questions. She proactively provided information that helped me make informed decisions. I selected Lesley as I had a positive experience with her counterpart in the agency up north as well as learning Lesleys previous experience. I am really pleased; Lesley exceeded my expectations and provided excellent customer-centered guidance coupled with expertise in complex real estate transactions. She was awesome!
It's an absolute pleasure working with Lesley. This is the 2nd property she's helped me purchase and I'm still impressed with her level of expertise and market knowledge.
