Why sell with me in Barrington
I'm Laurie Arslani, a REALTOR® with eXp Realty in Barrington, with 12+ years in the business and over 100 homes sold. I'm a Certified Real Estate Negotiator (CREN), which taught me the give-and-go of negotiating, so I know what to lean on when offers come in. I don't like rushed decisions. You choose the price, and I make sure you choose it with real information.
How I sell a Barrington home: what to expect
Barrington and the greater Barrington area are not the same thing. Before anything goes live, I'm clear about which one your home is in: the Village of Barrington, with its traditional downtown and older neighborhoods, or a surrounding community like Barrington Hills, South Barrington, North Barrington or Lake Barrington.
Then the steps are the ones on my How I Work page. We talk about what your home is worth and I give you a clear recommendation. I walk through your home with you and help you stage it. Professional photographers and videographers come on a set date, and on some homes I make a narrated video. Paid ads run behind the video and your new listing. When offers come in, I negotiate for you. After closing, I stay involved with pop-bys and check-ins.
Local context for Barrington sellers
Barrington is known for its historic downtown, mature trees and equestrian properties. There's a Metra station in Barrington, and many people shop at the Arboretum of South Barrington. It's about 35 to 45 minutes to O'Hare and a little under an hour to downtown Chicago when there isn't a lot of traffic. Barrington's main school district is District 220, and buyers check which schools go with an address, so I make sure that's clear in your listing. For more on the town, see my Barrington page.
