Making Your Real Estate Dreams a Reality

With dedication to exceptional service and a passion for the details, Barbara LePine has established herself as a trusted real estate professional at Advantage Real Estate. Her commitment to clients and deep community connections make her the perfect partner for your Lincoln County real estate journey.

A Commitment to Marketing Excellence

Barbara's philosophy is simple yet powerful:

"A house needs to be seen to be sold."

This guiding principle drives her comprehensive marketing approach, which includes correct pricing, aggressive advertising, community involvement, word of mouth, updated MLS information, professional photography, broad internet exposure, and catered broker open houses. These proven strategies ensure both agents and potential buyers are aware of all her listings.

Barbara's success speaks for itself, with much of her business coming from referrals outside Lincoln County, and recognition as the 2010 Newport News Times Readers Choice Award winner for "Favorite Real Estate Agent."

Dedication to Client Service

For Barbara, real estate is about more than transactions; it's about building relationships through exceptional service. As she puts it:

"My passion is in the details of the real estate transaction."

This dedication translates into timely communication, prompt paperwork processing, attendance at title and escrow closings with clients, and unwavering support until every key is delivered and clients are fully satisfied with their new home.

Community Leadership and Artistic Talent

Barbara's connection to Newport extends far beyond real estate. She serves as an Ambassador for the Greater Newport Chamber of Commerce, demonstrating her commitment to local business growth and community development.

As a talented musician, Barbara contributes to the cultural fabric of Lincoln County as the vibraphonist for the Lincoln Pops Big Band, a celebrated 22-piece orchestra that plays swing, Latin, and jazz music throughout the region. She also lends her percussionist talents to many Broadway-style productions at the Newport Performing Arts Center, and can frequently be seen as part of smaller ensembles at various venues around town.

Barbara's compassion is evident in her volunteer work with Samaritan House, a nationally recognized organization in Newport that provides shelter and support to homeless families. Her commitment to community extends to her personal life as well, having hosted a 17-year-old AFS exchange student who went on to study architecture in Austria.

Barbara's clients consistently praise her resourcefulness, enthusiasm, and dedication. As one couple from New York shared:

"If you should choose Barbara LePine as your agent, you will have chosen the most delightful, resourceful real estate partner you could."

They described working with Barbara as "an adventure" and emphasized her meticulous attention to providing the information needed for decision-making, her understanding of their unique needs, and her willingness to go the extra mile to ensure they were well-represented throughout the buying process.
