Maria Barreiro

My husband and I couldn’t recommend Maria Barreiro and the Falkwin Group enough. Maria helped us both sell and buy, and from the beginning, we knew we were in good hands. Initially, we were nervous about selling and buying. Not only did we remember very little from our first home purchase 10 years ago, but this time we also had to sell our house. The anxiety was HIGH. Not to mention the post-Covid market — we were nervous, but we knew this was absolutely something our family needed to do. From our initial chat with Maria right through to the closing of both our sale and purchase, Maria made the anxiety manageable. She helped put things into perspective when I was spiralling and always made us feel very comfortable. She was optimistic and approachable throughout the entire process. She explained everything clearly and helped us understand each step of the way. She was warm and kind, but also confident and tenacious when it came to negotiations. She fought hard for us, and we are so happy with how she represented us. The entire Falkwin Group was just as accommodating, knowledgeable, approachable, and kind throughout the process. We are so happy with our choice in realtor. If you are looking for a realtor, you will NOT be disappointed with Maria and the Falkwin Group. Their contacts, resources, and recommendations are invaluable. This process would not have been nearly as easy or smooth without them. Not only are we beyond happy with how everything turned out, but we learned a lot along the way too. Thank you, Maria, and thank you to the Falkwin Group. You are true gems in the real estate market! ❤️ - Katie

Working with Maria was absolutely wonderful! She's so kind and helpful. She went above and beyond to make sure it was a positive experience. I would definitely recommend her to anyone looking to buy or sell their home. - Meghan Pushie

Maria is extremely knowledgeable and professional. We would recommend her to anyone who is selling or buying a property. It was an absolute pleasure to work with her and we will definitely call her back if we need an agent in the future! - Laurie Bouchard

This is the second time we’ve worked with Maria. She is excellent to work with - very professional, pays attention to details, and gives great advice. 10/10 would recommend. - Matthew

Maria was excellent, super knowledgeable, and well connected! Her help was invaluable as our family navigated purchasing a home from out-of-province on a tight timeline. We are so pleased with the outcome! - Jessica Wallingford

Maria was fantastic to work with. She's very knowledgeable, friendly & professional. She kept us up to date on all information and guided us perfectly through the negotiation process. - Natasha Heighton

Professional, friendly, expedient, accommodating, adaptable, knowledgeable, provided sound advice every step of the way… Everything you would want to help get you through this process (and ours was not straight forward due to our personal circumstances). Maria handled everything we threw at her with ease. Would highly recommend! - Christian Oickle

Maria was exceptional. She provided honest, authentic advice that proved to be incredibly well grounded in her knowledge of the market and market conditions. We appreciated her responsiveness and care in both the buying and selling process. Maria kept us focused and realistic in a competitive buyer market, which led to us buying a home we loved at a price that aligned with the market (even in a multiple bid situation). Her strategic selling advice (on timing, staging, pricing, etc) also led to our home selling for well over asking within a few days of being on the market. We couldn't be more pleased with both experiences. - Kate Snyder

We've bought and sold with Maria. She's knowledgeable, strategic, and highly professional. She gives confident, practical advice backed by real expertise and sound judgment. A true pro across every stage of the real estate process. - Laura Mackenzie

This is my second experience with the Falkwin Group. Maria has been splendid throughout. She explained every step of the process of selling a home and answered any questions I had promptly. My condo was sold on the market during the average time in Halifax while others in the same building have not been sold yet. In the end we had multiple offers and I was able to select the best option. I would highly recommend Maria for any real estate needs. - Tristan Bankasingh

Maria is extremely knowledgeable, takes the time to explain the process and answer any questions, is adaptable and flexible, and always advocates for the best for her clients. Her sensitivity, interpersonal skills, and frank communication style inspire trust and confidence. I have returned to Maria and her team many times over the years, and recommend her to everyone I can. - Amy Hamilton

What a great experience! Maria is a consummate professional, in all aspects of her work. Her expertise, thoughtfulness, and calm, reassuring personality really won the trust of our entire family during the sale process. We would describe the entire process as smooth and painless - which is a triumph in any real estate transaction. We highly recommend Maria! - David Conrad

Maria and the Falkwin Group staged our house beautifully and we sold in less than 48 hours from time of listing. We found our dream home quickly and the knowledge Maria brought to the table to help us make an informed offer was instrumental in securing our forever home. - Jeremy Huffman

Thanks to Maria for the persistence and experience that we relied so much on to get this deal done. We feel quite confident about real estate matters but this tough sale really reiterates the value of a good realtor. Very thankful we chose Maria and we look forward to using her again in the future! - Mitchell Hartigan

Maria is not only a great realtor, but a great friend of ours, and we wouldn't have chosen anyone else to help us navigate the purchase of our first home. She is knowledgeable, friendly, and always had our best interest in mind. She took the necessary steps to inform us of the curry market and had a simple yet fair and realistic approach to the current market. In her absence, we worked with her colleague Heather, who made us feel comfortable and was also a great advocate for our needs. We appreciate both Maria and Heather for all their hard work. Thank you! - Roya

Working with Maria was an absolute pleasure. From the very beginning, she demonstrated a keen understanding of our needs and preferences, showcasing her perceptive and observant nature. Her ability to pick up on the smallest details, which might have otherwise gone unnoticed, was truly impressive. This attention to detail not only saved us time but also ensured that we were viewing properties that aligned perfectly with our vision for our new home. Throughout the process, Maria was always willing to schedule additional viewings, never hesitating to accommodate our requests to see new houses. Her dedication and flexibility were evident in every interaction, making the entire home-buying experience smooth and enjoyable. Her professionalism, combined with her genuine enthusiasm for helping us find the perfect home, made her an invaluable asset in our journey. We would highly recommend her services to anyone looking for a realtor who truly listens, understands, and delivers." - Jerry MacKinlay

The Falkwin Group and Maria Barreiro in particular made selling my home of 32 years very easy. Her knowledge of homes and what was required to sell made every step seemless! She put me at ease and made the process so much easier than I ever anticipated! I would highly recommend her and the Falkwin Group. - Shelda Bishop

Maria knew exactly what I wanted in the complex I wanted. When my unit came available she contacted me immediately and gave me perfect advice on what and when to offer. My offer was accepted same day. It was a great relief. - Moira Hernould

Very professional, knowledgeable, trustworthy, classy, patient, easy going, I had full confidence in Maria, I knew once we said good to go, she was ready, and she got all the info in a timely manner, and was very transparent with all the details 👏 👍🏿 😀 - kadeem grason

Thank you show much for everything Maria! You and Heather were fantastic and guiding me in this process and made everything so much easier :) thank you both for being so responsive and able to answer any questions I had! - Melissa Randall

As always, the Falkwin Group team guided us through the entire process while purchasing our new home. Thanks so much for your professional expertise. We look forward to working with you again in the future. - Matt

I highly recommend Maria. She knows the market very well, gave us great advice, is trustworthy, and was extremenly hard working. I don't think another agent could have sold our home quicker or for more money. - Alex MacPhee

Maria offered great advice, suggestions, and feedback to all of our inquiries. Provided excellent communication, and helped us by providing realistic advice and positioned us with guidance to make a competitive offer within our price range that ended up working out.

Maria was the realtor we chose to sell our previous home in Dartmouth and we had no hesitation in asking her to sell our home in Lawrencetown as she was most knowledgeable on selling strategies, marketing and getting results for her clients. Our home had multiple offers and sold in less than a day ! Maria is so easy to work with, we highly recommended her! - Patricia SMITH

My partner and I had the pleasure of working with Maria and the wonderful team at the Falkwin Group for the purchase of our first home. Maria & team are professional, knowledgeable, friendly, communicative, and made what is generally a stressful experience as seamless and smooth as possible. We were thrilled with the service we received, and would highly recommend Maria & the Falkwin Group to anyone we know looking to buy/sell a home. Thanks for everything! :) - Maxim Roy

Maria was wonderful and so helpful finding all the trades needed to finalize the sale. I would absolutely recommend her to anyone wanting to buy or sell a home - Faye Kafrawy

We could not have asked for a better experience buying a home than what we received from Maria. She was professional, courteous and went out of her way to make the transaction go smoothly for us. Maria gave us multiple options to consider and it was obvious that she had done her research on each property. When it came time to proceed with a purchase, Maria had many professional contacts that we could use when seeking inspections, insurance, moving companies, etc. all communication with Maria was prompt and insightful. Thank you Maria for making this experience as pleasant as possible. Without a doubt we will seek your services again if they are ever required and we would most definitely recommend you to friends and family. - Greg Mumford

Mario was excellent Agent and a pleasure to deal with. I would recommend her services to anyone interested in selling or buying a home.She was very knowledgeable and interested in getting our house sold. - Glenda Kennedy

Maria was the best realtor for the job. She was extremely knowledgeable, compassionate, and efficient. We are grateful we had her in our corner! This agency came highly recommended, and now we know why. We will do business with her again. - Jenifer Bethune

Maria came to us highly recommended by a friend. We had a house difficult to sell, that we had listed one year ago without any offer. The year since was full of private challenges and we felt trapped. When Maria arrived, she made sure to clarify exactly what we wanted - to sell fast - and offered great advice to make it happen. As we tidied up to stage and list, while managing two small children and a puppy, Maria was with us all the way, answering questions and calming anxieties. Then something happened: we got an offer! And then another! And more. With several offers in hand we made the best choice for our family and happily sold our house. In good time, too. Maria was able to get a very fair deal for us and we felt very well understood and cared for. She was a great advocate in negotiations and we were lucky she was in our corner. We can't say enough about Maria's professionalism, market knowledge and ability to get the job done. Her wonderful personality is a priceless bonus. She will be hearing from us again, whenever we decide to make another change. We know we will not be disappointed. If you want an agent who can get the job done, and who will do business with your best interests in mind, we highly recommend Maria. - Andrew Bethune
