Josh Barker

KJ was amazing to work with throughout the entire escrow process and I highly recommend everyone to him when purchasing a home.

We can't say enough good things about Tristyn Barker. We started our home search with her back in 2025, and it turned into a long journey. We put offers on two different homes and backed out of both after inspections turned up issues. Tristyn never pressured us, never made us feel like we were wasting her time, and never pushed us toward a deal that wasn't right. She just kept showing us houses, probably two or three dozen in all, until we found the one this past June. She's knowledgeable, personable, and endlessly patient, and her whole office was great to work with. By the end of the process she felt less like our realtor and more like a friend. If you're buying in the Redding area, call Tristyn. We'd recommend her to anyone without hesitation.

Very satisfied with me. Tino he helped us out in every part we did it understand and guided us every step of the way. In the end we got exactly what we asked for . Very impressed

I have worked with Todd on multiple occasions for both residential property and multifamily. Todd was excellent to work with, knowledgable and responsive. On several occasions when it looked like we would loose an opportunity, Todd had a creative idea to problem solve and saved the opportunity. Would highly recommend work with Todd!

Lacie is not only the best agent I've ever worked, Lacie is a better agent then I ever hoped to find. Seriously, she exceeds expectations. Her memory for your preferences, professional knowledge, and integrity are all 10 out of 10.

I can’t say enough good things about working with Kyle German. After having struggled in the past with feeling like my needs weren’t being heard or things weren’t getting accomplished with other Realtors, working with Kyle was a completely different experience. He was professional, hardworking, honest, transparent, and always took the time to listen. He made the entire home-buying process feel effortless. I would 10/10 recommend Kyle to anyone looking to buy a home. If you want someone you can genuinely trust to have your best interests at heart, he’s your guy!

Kyle did great job and helped me in buying my new house . He has excellent negotiation skills which helped me in getting house at lower price . I strongly recommend him without any restrictions .

Tristyn was and is amazing as well as extremely patient. My husband and I have a four year old and sometimes he can be a little rowdy but she was rowdy right back with him. We were able to find our house and move in very quickly. Despite my husband being hard of hearing and me asking alot of questions, she was very thorough and spoke up and clearly for both me and my husband to hear and understand. She is just extremely amazing and a wonderful person to work with!

Kyle german made my first time buying a home one of the best experience of my life ( I own my own house yeah !) Kyle went above and beyond to be there for me any time of the day if I had any questions or concerns . He is a very caring and professional agent . Being a first time buyer i still call him today with questions and he is always there to answer them, he really is the best, thanks again kyle !

I would like to share our most recent experience with Josh Barker Real Estate. We have done a few transactions with the company. First, let me say that Josh is truly a market expert bringing insight about the general market conditions, the specifics of your neighborhood real estate activity, and how best to price your home considering your time line to sale. Once you have a price and marketing strategy, which considers your goals and objectives, his fabulous team engages. Your first encounter when either calling or visiting the office is with Kaitlyn. She is very welcoming and makes you feel like you are their most important client. She connects you with the appropriate person in the office aligning with your respective point in the selling price. McKenna manages the listing process. She helps you get the details of your property properly displayed in the marketing materials. As the home is marketed, she keeps you abreast of the number of showings and the general feedback on the home’s condition, appealing attributes, and the feedback on pricing. Then, when you receive an offer or prepare a contract for sale, she is assisting in accurately completing the many forms and ensuring accuracy in how they are completed. Once the home is in contract, McKenna hands it off to Jenn. Jenn manages the closing process. Now you are in contract so the next steps include inspections, appraisals, more forms to manage, and tracking of any mortgage approval. Jenn will keep you abreast of the schedules for all of these things plus provide regular reports as to the outcomes of these items. In parallel, Jenn is working with the Title Company to ensure that all of the items needed for closing are moving as planned. Once the home closes, you will get a call from both the title company and Jenn to reassure you that the transaction is complete. You will also get a friendly reminder about switching utilities are other things that you might overlook. At various times during the selling process, Josh will check in with you just to make sure that things are moving along to your expectations and that you fully understand where you are in the process. It is all very reassuring. If things arise that are out of the ordinary the team can always call on Josh to help move things forward. Overall, you are in good hands with Josh and his team. There are many agents out there. However, Josh Barker Real Estate is more than a real estate agency. It is an integrated, process oriented, organization with the knowledge and resources to make your transaction flow smoothly and successfully.

Taylor is amazing so thoughtful and kind. Always checking in to make sure everything was going well. Any question or concern I had she got right on it to give me the answers I needed. I highly recommend her and her team.

I worked with KJ to find the right home. He was so patient and helpful as my strategies changed to meet my family’s needs. He even kept in touch after the sale, wanting to make sure I had what I needed. Overall, I had a great experience, I learned a lot and am keeping KJ in my contacts!

Brian and Jen were amazing working with me on my short sale- it was a struggle and a little at times, but they help ease that stress and they were also patient in the fact of how under water I was on this property and helped me through all options to work the without foreclosing. I would recommend them to anyone and hope to be on the buying side working with them in the future.

Taylor is wonderful to work with! She is professional, personable, and genuinely cares about helping people. She is easy to communicate with and always makes you feel comfortable and supported. I would absolutely recommend her to anyone looking for a great Realtor!

Knowledgable, trustworthy, and reliable. Kyle was a delight to house hunt with and made buying our first home smooth and memorable. Highly reccomend.

I've worked in customer service for over 50 years, and Taylor is in my opinion in the top 1% of all customer service representatives I have enjoyed dealing with. You can teach a lot of people the mechanics of a job, but I've never been able to teach caring and Taylor excels in caring. She listens and responds to my questions and if the answer wasn't readily available, she did the foot work to find the right answer. She is more professional than people twice her age. I will definately recommend her to not only my friends and family but to anyone i come in contact with. Thank you Taylor for your heart.

Kyle has helped me buy and sell two different homes over the past 10 years and each experience was outstanding! Kyle is very knowledgeable and makes things happen. I would highly recommend Kyle as your realtor for buying and selling. He’s the best!

Kyle helped me get a house in my price range with all the things I wanted. I was not living with in the area and was moving from Southern California. Kyle filled me on Northern California living. Went to houses in the area and sent me video reviews. Kyle acted with Intergrity and honesty. I trust that when you work with Kyle you will find what you are looking for and maybe even a hidden treasure.

Kyle was great, very friendly and knowledgeable. He helped us for a few months before we found the right house. He was very patient and easy to talk to took the time to find us exactly what we were looking for five out of five stars. would definitely recommend Kyle to any of our friends or family looking for real estate.!

Kyle was always upfront with information and ideas. I was unable to make deal on my first choice of houses. With Kyle help I was able to move fast and get the house I really wanted. After the sale was made, he was able to recommend a local contractor to help make repairs that were needed. From time to time, he still checks in with me to see anything else he can help with. This been going on for a couple of years now. Very much appreciated.

We feel so lucky to have found Kyle to help us buy our home. He did a great job navigating a tough situation and ultimately got us a great deal. I always felt like he was very transparent and reliable. I’ve recommended him a couple friends and they’ve all been happy. He also is a great resource for after you’ve bought your home and helped members of my family fix things on their new homes. When we buy a new house we will definitely use him again!

Kyle was there for us through the entire process and looked out for our best interests the entire time. We were coming from out of the area and he would consistently rearrange his schedule to show us properties when we were able to come up from the bay area. Working with Kyle was a great experience and I wouldn't hesitate to work with him again.

We've been working with Derek House for over two years to find out perfect home. Throughout that time, our plans and search areas changed several times, but he was always patient, accommodating, and never made us feel like we were wasting his time (although that would have been a valid feeling). He was quick to respond to calls and texts and was flexible with scheduling tours. When we finally made an offer, Derek advocated for us throughout the entire process and negotiated an outcome that far exceeded my expectations. He also kept us up to date through every step of the buying process. I was extremely anxious and lost, but he always explained everything in terms I could understand. He also helped my father-in-law purchase his home a few years ago, and both experiences have been excellent. I would confidently recommend Derek to anyone looking for a knowledgeable, dependable, and patient realtor.

Kyle made the home buying process simple and efficient, he understood what I was looking for, for my first time home. Highly recommend going with Kyle for a home buy or sell, I will be using him in the future if I need to move again!

We have worked with Kyle on the purchase of several rental properties and continue to rely on him to identify new investment opportunities. His market knowledge, responsiveness, and guidance throughout the process have made him an invaluable partner in building our portfolio.

My experience working with Kyle was absolutely outstanding!!! And that word doesn’t even cover it! I’ve shopped for houses, all days of the week, all types of hours; I’ve picked houses, chose to move forward, changed my mind, went back and forth for years!! 8 years to be specific! Kyle did not ONCE lose his patience or rush me into a buy, not even once. Quite the contrary, at times I got so excited about a particular house, it was a for sure sale, and he let me know his concerns and why he doesn’t believe that would be a good house for me. I am the most difficult client, thus the 8 years shopping, and he was always so friendly, understanding and extremely knowledgeable through the whole time. I can’t say enough how he was not once impatient with me! After many years, we finally found THE ONE! The house of our dreams and Kyle walked us through the process and made is so seamless we barely did anything. He did all the negotiations, kept us in the loop at all times, gave his suggestions but still allowed us to decide how (or if) to move forward and was with us through it all. And I will say another thing, Kyle’s networking is absolutely amazing! Just like any house that isn’t new, you find a lot of things along the way that need some help, he knows someone for anything that needs to be fixed or done! It’s now been almost 3 months since we bought this house and I still text him when I discover yet another issue; he continues to be kind and helpful as always! One night I had an emergency issue at close to midnight, I called everywhere and everyone and no one could help - I texted Kyle as last Hail Mary, 15 minutes later he called me and let me know he has someone on their way to help. He’s gained my trust entirely and I’ve learned that he would not recommend something if he didn’t truly believe that’s the right thing, and he has been on our side through all negotiations, paperwork and all the complicated steps that come with buying a house. 10/10 is not enough to rate him, he is truly exceptional and is now helping us also sell our old house because we trust no one else for this like we trust Kyle!

Kristina is an amazing realtor! She was patient with us when we were not sure want we wanted to do and ready to get to work when we figured it out. She answered our endless questions without making it feel like we were being a burden. She has great insights to the area and was very responsive. We truly enjoyed working with her!

Todd was exceptional in helping my wife and I. We had a difficult checklist of what we wanted in a home/mini farm property. For three years we patiently looked, then Todd who was always “on the hunt” for us found the ideal property very early one morning. It had just been listed the night before. He got us the first showing and we put a cash offer on it. The price was a steal. Seven other people asked for appointments that day but we got it. 13 years later we still love it and it has doubled in value. Todd was excellent. He is a man of integrity, honest, business savvy and fast to act on a great deal. He is also a lot of fun to work with and very practical in his style. You can’t go wrong with Todd. He did the impossible for us and we are thankful for him.

Kyle is an excellent agent. Very quick to respond and made every attempt to meet our scheduling needs. Growing up in the community added to his knowledge and charm. So easy to work with and helped us when we needed resources to help us. He maintained contact with us before, during and after our purchasing process. We highly recommend him!

We worked with Michelle and we were so pleased with her efficiency and communication. She moved quickly on our behalf and explained every part of the process. We will definitely work with her again.

Derek is awesome. He makes everything very easy to deal with. Any problems you have Derek has the solution. We have Sold 3 Homes through Derek and we have one left that I’m sure he will sell also. I highly recommend Derek for his Skills and Professionalism. He will get the job done for sure.

No matter how many questions I had, Derek always took the time to explain everything clearly and made sure I felt confident every step of the way. His communication, professionalism, and dedication made what could have been a stressful process feel smooth and exciting.

We’ve really enjoyed working with KJ during our home search. He has made every step of the process easy to understand and has been incredibly patient as we’ve looked at different homes. His communication is excellent, and he always makes time to answer our questions and give honest advice. KJ and Josh Barker Real Estate have been wonderful to work with, and I would absolutely recommend KJ to anyone looking to buy a home. He truly makes the experience enjoyable and puts his clients first.

Kj Carter and his team at Josh Barker Real Estate have done an amazing job. I have enjoyed learning about the buying process through his knowledge as well as getting to tour homes as we are actively looking for my dream home. I would highly recommend KJ for anyone with real estate needs.

Kristin did an excellant job and has made this process so easy for us she is very helpfull and gets things done and is very good at what she does i would recomend her to anyone that is wanting to buy a home. We really appreciate how much she has helped us and has made this process very smooth for us we ar greatful for her and cant wait to move into our new house she made dealing with the sellers easy as well eventhough they lagged on stuff and took a little longer than should have but because of kristin being persistant the sellers have done everything we asked we are just very pleased with how smoothe this whole process has been for us and hasnt been stressfull i thought it was going to be very stressful tryin to buy a house but when you have a amazing realtor that knows what they are doing it makes it alot less stressfull again thank you for everything you have done for us and have helped us with buying our first home we really appreciate it and couldnt of asked for a better realtor

Our agent was Matt Mets and he went the extra mile for us from the beginning to the end buying our new home, also helped us coordinate the sale of our own house to make the transition smooth. A real no pressure just help when things needed to be taken care of.

Tristan is a amazing person and the best at her job. Tristan helped my family find the perfect home, she was always available for any questions and concerns we had. Tristyn we'll forever have a place in our family. Thank you Tristyn for everything you have done for us.

Helped us find the right house and helped us through the entire process. Knew what we were looking for in a home and neighborhood. Highly recommended.

Kj was very good at his job was going above and beyond for us. He would answer any questions. really look hard for us for our future house. I will be recommending KJfor future family and friends.

We had an outstanding experience working with Matt Metz. From the very first meeting, he was knowledgeable, patient, and incredibly responsive. He took the time to understand exactly what we were looking for and guided us through every step of the process with confidence and clarity. What impressed me most was his attention to detail and genuine care. He never rushed us, and always provided honest insights, and made sure we felt supported from start to finish. Thanks to his expertise, we found the perfect home and closed without stress. I cannot say enough good things about Matt. I highly recommend him to anyone looking for a dedicated and trustworthy real estate professional.

Working with KJ was an absolute 10/10 experience from start to finish. As a first-time homebuyer (or even a seasoned one), the process can feel overwhelming — but KJ made every step feel manageable and even enjoyable. From day one, KJ was responsive, knowledgeable, and genuinely invested in helping me find the right home, not just a home. What really set KJ apart was the combination of sharp market knowledge and outstanding communication. I never felt left in the dark — questions were answered quickly, next steps were always clear, and I always felt like a priority. When it came to negotiations, KJ went to bat for me and delivered results I didn’t expect were possible in this market. If you’re looking for an agent who brings expertise, patience, and real dedication to the table, look no further. I can’t recommend KJ highly enough — and I’ll absolutely be reaching out again for any future real estate needs.

KJ was excellent through the entire Process especially since he was dealing with Me a buyer from North Dakota and the second buyer who lives in California. Everything had to be quartenated so that we could make a decision when I flew into California for only 5 days. KJ helped us find several houses on line that met our specifications and then help us narrow down our search to our top 8. When he showed us the houses is informative an non pushy. He was a pleasure to do business with. We chose a house and he was by our side all the way from offer through closing. He helped us find our dream house and made the entire process enjoyable. If you are looking to purchase a home in Northern California I would HIGHLY recommend Kj you are not going to find a better relator. He goes above and beyond what you would expect from a good realtor He is the best.

Very knowledgeable about the city of Redding & the surrounding areas. Willing to show numerous properties in one outing. Solid & practical advice on questions/issues that arise when making a home purchase. Great sources for referrals to local home inspection, insurance broker, etc. Very personable & eager to help. Takes into consideration buyers likes, dislikes, budget, etc when finding possible properties for showing. Offers suggestions (cleaning & painting versus remodeling) from his point of view with no added pressure. Very reliable & always easy to reach.

We had an outstanding experience working with Tino Alba as our real estate agent. From start to finish, Tino was knowledgeable, responsive, and truly dedicated to helping us achieve our goals. He took the time to answer all of our questions, kept us informed throughout the entire process, and always made us feel like a priority.

If you’re looking for an agent to sell your home for top dollar (even in this market) Lacie is the one for you. I had numerous agents reach out to me when my previous listing ended. At the time I wasn’t interested in selling my house anymore since I already had a renter in place. I spoke to 4 different agents. 3 of them told me I could MAYBE to get $400,000 for house. Lacie from the begging told me I could get $425,000-$430,000. The confidence and professionalism in which Lacie spoke led me to go ahead and give it one more try. I don’t live in Redding so it was hard of me to be on top of everything during the process. I didn’t have to. Lacie took care of everything from open house working with my tenant to not inconvenience him for showings. The process was smooth from beginning to end. Although she suggested $425,000-$430,000 I felt discouraged by what the other agents told me so I asked her to list it at $420,000. She respected my opinion. Needless to say I sold my house for asking price. I should have listened to her. Even though Josh barker real estate is a big company, I never felt like I was pushed aside. Lacie and her team were in constant communication with me since the moment we listed the house. My family and I are thankful for Lacie and everyone at Josh Barker real estate. Highly recommend Lacie as your next agent!

We had an amazing experience working with Kristina throughout our home buying journey. As first time homebuyers, we had a lot of questions and were unfamiliar with the process, but Kristina was incredibly patient, knowledgeable, and informative every step of the way. She always took the time to explain things clearly and made sure we felt comfortable and confident in our decisions. What stood out most was how much she genuinely cared about helping us find the right home, not just any home. She always had our best interests in mind and worked hard to ensure we found the perfect fit for our needs. We are so grateful for her guidance, expertise, and dedication. We highly recommend Kristina to anyone looking to buy or sell a home!

Tino is a wonderful agent! He is super responsive. He works hard to get you the information you need. He will literally respond in like 2 mins. I chose him because of his persistence, though I didn't feel pressured. He told me he doesn't mind showing a hundred houses until I found the one I liked. Luckily It didn't actually take a hundred showings. He is especially skilled in negotiation. I came out with a fair deal. I love my new house!

Todd has done an amazing job helping me purchase my last two properties. I never feel pressured to rush through the process and in fact he is very honest about pros and cons to specific properties I have looked at. I always feel prioritized and cared for when working with Todd. I couldn’t recommend him enough.

We won the lottery getting to work with Kristina to find our home. She is focused and prompt and genuinely cares about making sure you are happy with the outcome. She knows what she's doing and we could not recommend her more!

Derek House was super great to work with! He helped us buy our first home! He listened to what we were looking for and help us get that. Derek was very professional, messaged me right away, really stuck with us when we didn’t know what we wanted, and knew what he was doing! Thank you to Derek for getting us into our first home!
