About Barbara

A native Memphian who combines her work with her love of Memphis’ historic homes, Barbara has hands-on experience in buying and saving historic landmarks that gives her special insight into the potential of any house she sees, no matter what its initial condition. She and her husband Hank have renovated quite a few area homes and buildings and restored their current home in 1992, the J.A. Austin house, one of eight 19th century townhouses still standing in downtown Memphis. Barbara’s approach to both her personal and professional endeavors is with a sense of pride and perseverance. As a successful real estate professional for over 25 years, her expertise is not limited to the historic home market. She also sells existing and new homes and represents several major Memphis builders. Her ability to listen intently so that she can understand your specific housing wants and needs enables her to help you evaluate your options so that you can make an intelligent investment decision when buying or selling a home.
