Barb Derizzo was great. She was honest with getting our house ready and well versed and knowledgeable about how to best price our home in this market. We received multiple offers on the first days on the market selling well over asking price and with little delays in closing. I would recommend her to anyone looking to place their home on the market.

Barbara Derizzo is a hard working and trusting agent who genuinely cares about her clients. We used Barbara as a buying and selling agent. She was totally committed to us and was incredibly knowledgeable of the industry. We are grateful for her expertise and HIGHLY recommend her for all of your real estate needs. Buying and selling a home can be an extremely stressful experience. But Barb gets it. She has your back and walks with you through the whole process with compassion and understanding.

Barb is terrific - we would highly recommend her for her work with either an area person or someone like us who was relocating. I just did a strong recommendation for her online, whichI would be happy to refer you to. Peter Konwerski and Leah Rosen

Very, very prompt communication. She knew the ins and outs of everything needed, followed up after the sale, and directed things a realtor normally wouldn't have to due to the lacking nature of the attorneys. I would give an 11/10 if able. Very pleased.

Barb is a true professional. We were impressed by her knowledge of the Saratoga area. She provided us with any and all information we needed to make the best choice for us. She responded quickly at all times. She communicated efficiently with the associate for the builder and all interested parties. Throughout the process it was clear that our best interest was her priority. There is honestly nothing more that we could have expected or needed from a sales associate. Her authenticity and friendly personality made the process of purchasing new property a pleasant experience. She came very highly recommended and we are very thankful to have the opportunity to work with her and get to know her.

Barb, Thank you for all of your help throughout the process of purchasing our house! We are endlessly thankful for our new home and could not have done it without you!

As first time home buyers, we were so thankful to have Barb's expertise in guiding us through the process. Not only did she help us secure an excellent deal on the perfect house, she helped us navigate inspections, securing mortgages, and was with us the entire process. Barb was always responsive, knowledgeable, and a pleasure to work with. Will absolutely recommend to all of my friends and family.-- M.Erby

Barb has been a savior during this process as a first time homebuyer. She's so professional, knowledgeable, as well as just enjoyable to be around as we were viewing houses together. She was extremely flexible in working with our schedules (given I'm a physician and have not so flexible hours). On top of that she was amazing in negotiating a great deal for our house during one of the most competitive markets ever seen (post-covid). We loved working with Barb and would recommend her to anyone in a heart beat!

Barb made what could have been a disastrous situation, a very enjoyable and profitable ending. Our house had some inspection issues that could’ve detrailed the transaction, but Barb was a consummate professional and got us over the goal line. I have referred her regularly and am very confident in doing so.

Barb was an outstanding, detail oriented real estate agent. She found the right buyers for me quickly and diligently. She has very strong business acumen and knows how to price both to sell and maximize profits. Barb was extremely helpful in staging my house also. I felt like a partner the whole time. She was always available. Barb made selling my house a priority. She is an experienced negotiator and can be trusted immensely. Barb was able to creatively negotiate a rent back into the sale price that was advantageous to me financially and allowed me to stay in the house for the extra time I needed. I highly recommend Barb to anyone looking to sell or buy a home that wants to optimize their experience in all aspects!

We made a great decision to have Barb DeRizzo be our agent to sell our home of 20 years. She was very thorough when reviewing the timeline from putting our house on the market, as well as preparing us for what to expect along the path to closing. The process has changed significantly over the past 20 years. We were grateful for this since the home inspection turned up a finding of minimal mold. Thanks to Barb’s contact, we were able to find a professional mold remediatorwho also fixed the cause. The work was able to be completed in a timely fashion. The photographer Barb worked with did an amazing job of showcasing our home. We had so many questions along the way and Barb’s responses were immediate, even when she was away on vacation. She was always patient, even when we weren’t. We have no reservations to refer Barb to be your realtor. She is an excellent real estate agent, and more importantly she is an honest, hard working woman.

Barbara DeRizzo sold our home in Saratoga County in 4 days during the Covid pandemic lock down! Barbara is without a doubt the best real estate agent we have ever experienced! Her strengths are her communication & negotiation skills, her attention to details and follow through as well as her marketing abilities. Barbara's communication skills are exemplary!!! She is articulate and maintains open lines of communication throughout the entire process. She consistently responds in a very timely manner and always answers her phone. Furthermore, we ended up with two cash offers. Barbara skillfully negotiated the offers and advised us of our options, which resulted in an above asking sale price! Barbara insisted that all potential buyers look at our property outside prior to scheduling an inside appointment to insure only the most serious buyers access to our home. This limited the opportunity for Covid exposure since we are both high risk individuals. Everything Barbara does is carried out with professionalism & class. Throughout the process, Barbara conscientiously monitored and adjusted her marketing plan for maximum effectiveness! We highly recommend her, without reservation, as your real estate agent for all markets. Her exemplary skills will benefit buying, selling or commercial markets! We can be reached at collevett@gmail.com for further inquiries. Thank you Barbara! Sincerely, Colleen & William Levett

I couldn't have made a better decision than to work with Barb DeRizzo. Barb spent a long time with me learning and discussing the details of the area, the neighborhood; Learning about my home and me. She has a great eye for detail, and was instrumental in helping me achieve an updated look in the house that would appeal to potential buyers. She does her research and keeps current with the trends. Selling your house can be a stressful experience. Barb was always professional, and understood the history, the work, and the memories that I had in my home of over thirty years. She knows that your home is way more than a structure where you reside. In many cases it's part of your life. Barb is vested in her client's success, and spends a great deal of time at all hours of the day and night in helping and guiding you through the sale. Barb is not only knowledgeable, accessible, and professional. She is understanding, intuitive, and proactive! Thanks to Barb my home sold very quickly, and the entire process from showing to closing went perfectly. She is a great communicator and a pleasure to work with. I recommend her very highly.

Barb did a fantastic job selling our home. From day one she helped us prepare our home for sale by making several key suggestions to appeal to home buyers. She knew the market in the Saratoga area and was able to help us land on a selling price that would move our home in 30 days or so, which we did! I would highly recommend Barb if you are thinking of selling your home - If you are up in the air about selling just meet with her so she can give you insights on the "Sellers" market in Saratoga Co. Thanks Barb!

Barbara was an exceptional Realtor! She’s a 5 star ?? agent in every way. As people relocating to the NY Capital region she provided us exceptional insights on the area and patiently toured us through an array of diverse homes/styles as we explored Albany, Troy, N & E Greenbush, Sand Lake, Poestenkill, Brunswick, Loudonville, Menands, Colonie, Watervleit, Niskayuna, Clifton Park, and Half Moon. Ultimately she skillfully helped us narrow our search across the Hudson Valley until we found just the right place. ??Thanks to Barbara we were able to find the perfect home for our family - close in suburban but on multiple wooded acres, Pet friendly and for a great right price, but with all the essential amenities in a warm, comfortable setting. ??Her help was also invaluable in navigating the complex and unique elements of buying real estate in New York, coupled with her close work with attorneys, the seller agent, and several inspectors, which was always timely and attentive to our needs and concerns in person, online, by phone, and by text. ??We would highly recommend her to friends and colleagues and since our move she’s continued to stay in touch and serve as a great source of insight and support for both our transitional needs and referral resources as we do some initial work in our new place. ????She’ll be a friend for years to come and she is a consummate professional and trusted real estate resource for anyone looking for a residential expert or relocating to the Capital region.

I can't say enough good things about Barb and how she helped me out of a bad situation after I originally decided not to list with a broker. She was extremely supportive and handled my situation professionally, obtaining a second offer only 2 days after an original offer fell through. She managed the final closing process from start to finish and made sure I didn't over commit to any unnecessary demands - making sure I received fair value for the home I was selling. You will not be disappointed by choosing Barb to sell your home.

My wife and I were very satisfied with Barb. She knew the area and understood what we were looking for. She took the time out of her busy schedule to show us around the area. Thanks to Barb we found a house and we love it.
