Cory was so easy to work with and told us exactly what was needed to be done to get our house on the market. Because of his expertise, our house not only had an offer within 1 day of listing, but we were able to get $8,000 more than another realtor had recommended we list our house for. All the final paperwork was seamless, even with us having moved out of state!

Cory has been our familys realtor for many years and has helped us both buy and sell homes in the Cedar Rapids area. Cory is very professional, but also provides personal attention tailored to our familys needs. Corys team utilizes various online tools to ensure that new listings are immediately visible and they are also flexible to accommodate showing times that work with our busy schedule. All in all, I would definitely recommend Cory if you need to buy or sell a home in the Cedar Rapids metro area!

Cory Barnard is an excellent Realtor! He also just happens to be one of my best friends. He has been there for me since high school and has always listened to me and supported me. We worked together when I was in the mortgage business for 12 years and he was and is one of the best Realtors I know.If it wasn’t for Cory Barnard, Gabe and I wouldn’t have been able to purchase our dream property. We had been thinking about moving for years, but werent even looking. We viewed properties online, but never actually went to see one in person. We knew what we wanted, but it was extremely difficult to find.Cory continued to listen to me ALL these years about the type of property we were looking for, the location, the features, etc.I never promised I would use him as a Realtor, he was never pushy or nosy, he listened. When this property was going to be listed, Cory reached out to us immediately to let us know. He drove out to show us the property the next day and spent 2 hours walking around with us answering our numerous questions. Cory then, on our beckon, came over at 10pm that night for us to write an offer.We found out we were in competing offers the next morning. If it wasn’t for Cory pushing us on the timeliness and suggesting we send a personal letter with our offer, we would have lost out on our dream home. Cory not only knew what he was doing, but he set the right expectations. Low and behold, less than 24 hours later, our offer was accepted and we were buying a house! And that house is now our HOME.I tear up writing this as it has changed a lot for us. We couldn’t be happier and love our new home!! Cory Barnard, you have no idea how grateful we are to you. You listened, you showed up, you worked hard and you gave us our dream. Yes, you are one of our best friends, and you always will be. Thank you for being an awesome Realtor and a wonderful friend. We are forever grateful!

Cory was great to work with and was so helpful as we were first time homebuyers. I highly recommend him to anyone buying or selling.
