I am Joshua T. Barrett, Investor, Entrepreneur, Dreamer, and Leader in real estate sales in Central Ky. 

I use advanced marketing techniques to help sellers sell homes faster and buyers find the property of their dreams. Remember, when they told you in school that business was all about networking? Well, they weren’t lying, and I take full advantage of that statement. I work the networks we have to find active buyers and active sellers, no sticking signs in your yard and praying someone else brings a buyer, I seek out the buyer. Often times turning transactions in a number of weeks, a majority of my listings are on the market for under 30 days! How is that for quick turn around time?

I understand that buying or selling a home is more than just a transaction: it’s a life-changing experience, its more than a house, its a HOME to grow, learn, rest, and enjoy. The MOST important investment in ones life. That’s why my team is dedicated to providing exceptional, personalized service for all of our clients, we have the effective tools necessary to move you through the process of buying or selling with ease. I focus on the PLAN not the PROBLEM. 

Without a doubt I can tell you that I represent the best, the brightest, the hardest working, and I strive to lead the field in research, innovation, and consumer education. Today’s buyers and sellers need a trusted resource that can guide them through the complex world of real estate. My extensive knowledge and commitment to providing only the best and most timely information to my clients, I am your go-to source for real estate industry insight and advice.

Since 2012 we have continually set goals and doubled in business each year, in 2016 we closed over 45 homes and closed over 6 million in sales, in 2017 we again have set our goal to double that number and are on track to do so; in 2017 I was awarded Entrepreneur of the Year for the state of Kentucky, and ranked as #1 agent in the #1 office in Central KY. (Rankings as of June 2017 per MLS data) 

I would be honored to add you to our family of raving fans the next time you consider buying or selling real estate! I pledge to be in constant communication with you, my clients, keeping them fully informed throughout the entire buying or selling process. Please, don’t judge by our winners, judge by our losers, because we have so few. I believe that if you’re not left with an amazing experience, I haven’t done my job. 

I was born in Lexington, Kentucky and moved to California at a young age, growing up in the beautiful resort community of Indian Wells, famous for its fantastic weather, golf courses and tennis facilities. After graduating from high school, I returned to my roots and graduated from Eastern Kentucky University with a BA in Public Relations. There, I met and married my husband, Brian, who is a native of Richmond, and we have been blessed with three lovely daughters. Besides dedication to family life, the last 15 years have also been spent working hand in hand with my husband- buying, selling and renovating residential and investment properties.

Real estate runs in the family, and I was fascinated by the profession at an early age. It’s a natural fit for me as I can apply my creativity, along with my organizational and tech-savvy skills, while helping my clients meet their goals. Client satisfaction is very important to me, as I work ethically, professionally and tirelessly toward a positive experience and outcome for both Buyers and Sellers.

For further information to assist you in the Sale or Purchase of your home, please call me. I look forward to working with you!
