Barbara Bardach - REALTOR

Barbara Bardach focuses on the premier North and Northwest areas of Tucson: The Foothills, Oro Valley, Stone Canyon, and Dove Mountain/Marana. Barbara has lived in Oro Valley since 2001 and resided since 2008 in Stone Canyon, a private guard-gated golf community in Rancho Vistoso area of Oro Valley. Her primary real estate focus is on luxury homes and land in Tucson’s desirable gated and golf communities, perfect for those seeking a relaxed Arizona lifestyle.

As the 5th largest city in the US, Phoenix is well known as an Arizona destination. However, its sprawl, fast pace, and density combined with the natural beauty of 5 mountain ranges have made Tucson and surrounding areas a welcome haven for those wanting to enjoy a true relaxed Arizona lifestyle. For Buyers unfamiliar with Tucson, Barbara first provides a tour of the North and Northwest areas to help determine appeal before narrowing their search to a specific community or property.

Barbara not only enjoys the hunt to fulfill her clients’ wishes, but she is also exceptional at identifying and recommending the perfect property in her clients’ area of choice. With her extensive market knowledge, strong personal network, and uncanny ability to identify what would best suit her clients’ criteria, Barbara is able to satisfy even the most discriminating Buyers.

With Sellers, Barbara believes presentation is crucial to successful marketing. Her hands-on approach includes, in addition to educating her clients about the market, an emphasis on preparing their property for best market presentation. With her excellent eye for design, Barbara first works personally with Sellers to stage their home to create the most appeal to Buyers. She then engages the services of a professional still photographer and drone photographer to capture the essence of each property.

Barbara’s goal is to present her listings such that prospective Buyers will feel as if they are viewing their future home, not visiting someone else’s home. She stresses that simplification in presentation enables architecture, layout, and style augmented by amenities and location to create appeal for Buyers.

As an individual agent (no team), Barbara provides personalized attention to each of her clients. A former business executive herself, she understands her clients’ time is valuable and excels at making the real estate process smooth and successful. Through her exceptional professionalism, focused market knowledge, passion for real estate, extensive network, and honed negotiation skills, Barbara’s clients achieve both a pleasant and satisfying win-win transaction.
