My interests are varied for sure. Mostly I love to market homes and figure out new ways to sell properties. Believe it or not real estate is my life. It all began when I inherited the "family farm". I subdivided that land and built a road according to the subdivision rules and regulations set forth by Wake County. Afterwards
I sold some lots and remodeled a 1950's farmhouse. Sold the farmhouse and built new construction home. In the end
I sold it all and thus began my real estate career.

Jo Barnes Realty is proud to be a part of this area's renaissance and we strive for continued contribution to the Triangle's economic rejuvenation. I am a native of Raleigh and have been a part of this community for over 50 years. I am a member in good standing of the National Association of Realtors and have earned numerous achievements during my years as a REALTOR. I am proud to be a member in good standing of the Raleigh Regional Association of Realtors as well as holding a secondary membership in the Carteret County Association of Realtors. In fact, I was a committee member of the Multiple Listing Service for two years in the Crystal Coast MLS. And finally I am a member in good standing of the Triangle MLS. I am certified by the National Association of Realtors as a Short -Sale and Foreclosure Resource as well as a certified Senior Real Estate Specialist. And I proudly am associated with a network of local investors who's resources are in the millions of dollars. And I actually represent a group of investor clients right here in the Triangle who are always looking to pay cash for a suitable property. Marketing and negotiating skills are superior because I actually list AND sell houses. After I acquire a listing that's when I really get to work. I market my properties to over 60 platforms and search engines on the internet as well as listing properties in my local multiple listing services. Additionally, I recently began marketing to international markets including Asia, Europe , and Canada. Did you know that Canadians purchase more US residential properties than all other European and Asian markets combined? I am a Top Producer and in 2012 -2013 , my average selling time for a residential home is 43 days.
