What do Clients Say?

My husband and I love Barbara Monroe from Desert Dream Realty. She sold our house in 18 days and found our new house in 10 more. We recommend her to anyone who needs a hard working, pleasant, and knowledgeable realtor. TY Barbara.

Louis and Mikie S

Barbara is a wonderful realtor. We only had a couple months to look for a new home and Barbara made sure we found the perfect one. With the lack of houses for sale we would get a little stressed out and we had different needs when buying our home, but Barbara was right by our side through it all making us feel less stressed and patient. Now we are in our dream home so happy! Thank you so much Barbara!

Ashley W

My wife and I were unsure about buying our first home. When we met Barbara, she was absolutely wonderful. She got us information to start moving forward, got in touch with a lending Company and with 2 weeks we found our 1st home. We couldn't have done it with out her, and the contacts she has. I would highly recommend Barbara for getting a first home or another home. 5 star customer service. Barbara went above and beyond what I would have expected from her.

Jason Flagg

Barbara Monroe, REALTORĀ® at Desert Dream Realty, surpassed my expectations as my realtor. She went above and beyond to find my husband and I our new home. Barbara treated us like family and worked with us through every step of the home buying process. I would highly recommend Barbara for your real estate needs.
