Susan Barnes
Susan Barnes works with clients with one goal, a smooth transition to the next phase of their lives. Whether selling to downsize, or buying that first home, there is one goal that remains the focus throughout the process: a successful move.
A career in customer service, hospitality and management with companies like Biltmore Estate and J.Crew were the prefect training grounds for a successful real estate career. Susan's professional approach and personable nature are two things that continue to be acknowledged by past and current clients. She understands the magnitude of buying and selling a home and how that experience is individual to each buyer or property owner.
Now, a veteran in the business, having survived the bubble and burst, experience serves Susan and her clients well.
Kim Lawing
I view guiding the process of buying or selling one's home as a unique responsibility and I strive to match your lifestyle and interests with a home that will serve you well, functionally as well as personally. I began my career in Atlanta as a sales agent, spending many award-winning years working with the commercial/hospitality interior design industry. Prior to returning home to Western North Carolina, I was an agent with Harry Norman Realtors of Atlanta. My experience as an independent agent, combined with my creativity, project management and accountability to my clients has afforded me an excellent foundation to successfully guide you through the process of buying or selling a home. I've strengthened the services I offer by teaming with fellow Realtor Susan Barnes, whom I call mentor, friend – and sister.

Susan Barnes
Helping people realize homeownership has created a profound awareness of those who do not have, and may never have, a place to call home. Susan works with local support agencies and serves on the board of the Haywood Street Congregation, a downtown church that ministers to Asheville's homeless population.
In her free time, she and her husband, Steve, enjoy hiking or biking in the mountains with their dog. They also spend as much time as they can on their sailboat on a nearby South Carolina lake.
Kim Lawing
Being a Western North Carolina native has fostered an appreciation for its natural beauty. I have an attraction to the water as well. Whether it's hiking Mt. Pisgah to see the remarkable views (and to check out the deck I helped build in high school!), or sailing the British Virgin Islands and snorkeling for a glimpse of a seahorse, outdoors is one of my favorite places to be.
Another "North Carolina natural" is that I am a graduate of UNC-Greensboro (Spartans), and many in my family are graduates of UNC-Chapel Hill, so I am a Tarheel basketball fan! I grew up with and continue to follow the team, and it is a fun family tradition. My other sports interest is tennis. I'm a novice, but enjoy the social aspect and working on improving my skills - and, again, being outside! I am also looking forward to starting a West Coast Swing class in the fall.

What is my home worth?
Ask An Expert
How should I approach holiday showings?
Homes often look inviting during the holidays, but sellers should be careful not to go overboard. Over decorating can crowd your home and distract buyers. Consider seasonal winter decorations rather than specific religious themes to make your home as inviting as possible. And despite those hectic schedules, don’t refuse showings. Home buyers searching during the holidays usually have a good reason. Both buyers and sellers are often motivated at the end of the year, so a win-win might be perfect for ringing in the New Year.

Susan was the broker for our Son when he purchased his home in Pisgah Forest. Not having purchased a home through a broker before, I had a lot of questions on the process. Susan Barnes was very patient with me in answering my questions and solving my worries. Since we live in Florida most of our correspondence was long distance. Susan did an excellent job in handling everything. I have complete trust in her abilities and honesty in dealing with people.

This is the second property my husband and I have purchased with the help of Susan Lawing Barnes. Our first purchase was 10 yrs ago, a house in Brevard. Both times, our "Shopping on Line" from Florida was time consuming, and yet Susan never seemed annoyed, tired, or impatient. It didnt matter what time I texted, emailed or phoned, Susan always got back to me with an answer or explanation within 24 hrs. I am not easy to work with. I am quite intense, ask lots and lots of questions and need help sorting through my many concerns. Susan proved to be the perfect ally. She had a knack for communicating a difference of opinion or correction of my assumptions without sounding annoyed or patronizing and THAT, for me, is essential. She was and is always calm cool and confident. I love the fact that she is a Native and knows many details that transplants do not. I know she will be the first person I call when we are ready to do this again. I definitely recommend her as your next Real Estate Agent.

verifiedThis is the second property my husband and I have purchased with the help of Susan Lawing Barnes. Our first purchase was 10 yrs ago, a house in Brevard. Both times, our "Shopping on Line" from Florida was time consuming, and yet Susan never seemed annoyed, tired, or impatient. It didnt matter what time I texted, emailed or phoned, Susan always got back to me with an answer or explanation within 24 hrs. I am not easy to work with. I am quite intense, ask lots and lots of questions and need help sorting through my many concerns. Susan proved to be the perfect ally. She had a knack for communicating a difference of opinion or correction of my assumptions without sounding annoyed or patronizing and THAT, for me, is essential.
