Rebecca Barnes

Rebecca Barnes understands that real estate is more than just buying or selling property—it’s about guiding people through major life transitions with confidence, clarity, and ease. With over a decade of experience in residential, country, and investment properties, she brings a hands-on, strategic approach to every transaction. Her background as a property investor, landlord, and short-term rental manager gives her a unique perspective, allowing her to advise clients beyond the traditional scope of buying and selling.

Rebecca’s passion for real estate began when she bought her first home at just 23 years old. She was fascinated by every step of the process, from touring homes to reviewing contracts, and soon realized she wanted to help others navigate these big decisions. She quickly moved into property investment, managing rentals, and exploring short-term rental opportunities, gaining invaluable experience that now benefits her clients. Whether she’s helping a first-time buyer, guiding sellers through a major transition, or assisting investors in maximizing returns, she is known for her patience, problem-solving skills, and ability to simplify even the most complex transactions.

What sets Rebecca apart is her deeply personal approach. She doesn’t see real estate as a transaction—it’s an opportunity to help people make meaningful, life-changing moves. She takes the time to understand her clients’ goals, ensuring they feel supported, heard, and confident throughout the entire process. She leads with integrity, honesty, and a strong work ethic, making sure her clients know she has their back in every negotiation and decision.

One of her most rewarding transactions involved helping an older couple transition from their long-time home in Folsom to a new construction home in Oregon. The process went far beyond listing a house—it involved sorting through 15 years of memories, organizing sales and donations, preparing the home for market, securing a bridge loan, and coordinating out-of-state movers. She even helped connect them with a trusted local agent in their new state. The bond she built with them turned into a lasting friendship, proving that real estate is about so much more than just the sale.

Originally from Texas, Rebecca moved to California to raise her family in her husband’s hometown. She has lived in the Bay Area, Elk Grove, Herald, and Galt, giving her strong connections throughout Sacramento and San Joaquin Counties. Outside of real estate, she loves shopping and supporting local businesses, believing that when we lift each other up, everyone succeeds. A true advocate for community over competition, she’s passionate about helping others thrive — because success is sweeter when shared. Rebecca’s love for teamwork and community runs deep.

A former student athlete, she carries that team-oriented mindset into everything she does. Highly competitive yet always humble, Rebecca never brags or displays a bad attitude — a trait that has helped her thrive in real estate. Her children are local athletes, and she stays active by playing coed volleyball and softball. Rebecca also gives back by coaching youth sports and staying involved in her church activities — always leading with heart and dedication.

For Rebecca, success is measured by relationships, not just results. Her clients trust her because she genuinely cares, and she takes pride in making every transaction as smooth, stress-free, and rewarding as possible.
