Tom helped my family purchase a home in Arcola, IL during 2014 and sell the same home in 2016 in record timing. In the sale, not only did Tom coordinate the sale, but he also assisted in some unexpected items that came up with the house to allow a timely sale.

Tom has shown us a few properties and we have purchased through him. His down to earth professionalism is refreshing in this cut throat world we live in. He has always been open and honest as to what he knows about a property and always knows his properties well.
When we decide to purchase other properties we will definitely call on Tom for his expertise.

Tom always works hard for his clients, goes above and beyond to ensure a successful transaction for every client, every time. Tom has been our real estate agent in past years and we have been 100% satisfied with his work, communication, and knowledge of the properties, community, and surrounding area. Most recently, he assisted with looking over the next property we are getting ready to sell and provided some excellent insight on improving our chances to get the most for our home sale. He will be our real estate agent with the sale of this property as well. We will certainly continue doing business, both professionally and personally with Tom. Highly recommend Tom Bariether for all of your Real Estate needs!

Tom has sold me my last two houses. In both cases, they were not houses I would have found on my own, and in both cases they were the perfect house for my family! Tom is very familiar with the local area, he is honest and ethical and truly knows the real estate business. Unlike some real estate professionals who sell houses part time to make money - Tom is a FULL TIME realtor, allowing him to obtain the knowledge necessary to find you the perfect house or find the perfect buyer for your house.

Tom worked extremely hard to help us find the perfect home. He was very patient and showed us countless houses on multiple occasions. He was very honest with his thoughts about home locations and conditions. We won’t ever use anyone else!

Tom is great! We listed our house with him and it sold very quickly! What is usually a stressful process was a breeze with Tom. He knows all the ins and outs and most importantly we got top dollar for our home! If we were still in the area we would definitely use Tom again!

Tom was a professional when we were looking to buy a house, but more importantly, his down-to-earth friendly demeanor made us feel very comfortable and relaxed with the entire process. What can be an exhausting experience, going from place to place in search of the perfect one, was actually quite fun with Tom throwing in his outstanding humor between giving us precise details and answering all our questions with ease.

Tom was wonderful to work with. He showed my family many homes and worked with us to help us find our perfect home. I was a first time home buyer and had many questions.

Tom is great to work with and has great communication skills. He was quick in his response time and sold the house in an appropriate amount of time. He will work hard to sell any home and will treat each individual with the upmost respect. Additionally he is a lifelong resident of Mattoon and with that has a wealth of knowledge to share with any individual whom is considering a move to the Mattoon/Charleston area.

I have used Tom to sell 2 homes and buy 1. He did a great job on all 3 transactions. I couldn't have asked for better service. He kept in contact with everybody and kept things progressing smoothly.

We cannot speak highly enough of our experience with Tom. When we bought our first property we interviewed several agents. He was the only one willing to take the time to educate us about the local market. Tom invested extra time in us to ensure we purchased what we were looking for. One of Tom's greatest assets is his honesty. He never tries to pressure you into something you are going to regret.

He goes above and beyond what is required of him to ensure that each and every person he assists receives top-notch service. He is an asset to his profession, and I would highly recommend Tom Bariether as your realtor.

tom is a very personable person, friendly and willing to help. Property was a foreclosure. Tom walked us through the process with ease and negotiated for us with issues with the Seller.

We were so fortunate to have found Tom when we moved to Illinois. As our Realtor, he helped us find the right house for us. He was patient as we traveled from West Virginia to look at homes (many homes) over several months and cautioned us about making unreasonable offers when we fell too quickly for overpriced homes.

In short, he was always on our side working to make our house purchase as simple and successful as possible. The best part about working with Tom was that he was always more focused on answering our questions, giving us good advice, and finding homes that met our needs than he was on closing a deal. We would recommend him to anyone.

Tom is one of a Kind!

01/31/2018 - creece63

Tom Bariether is top notch! And let me tell you he went above and beyond, he showed us around 35-40 houses over the course of two months or so, he held a crying baby, corralled a dog, fed us and drove us town to town and county to county. He has become a close family friend we still are in touch years later.

No real estate transaction is too big or too small for Tom, both get special attention from him .
Tom explains everything about the properties and everything about the whole process in purchasing the properties. I haven’t had properties for sale but I have purchased two properties through him and he made it really easy for me .
Tom Bariether will find the kind of property that you were looking for and he will make the purchasing easy for you

Tom is a friendly man with a great attitude. He was very helpful giving advice during negotiations. He was always quick to respond to messages and phone calls. I would recommend Tom to anyone.

01/31/2018 - coffey46

Tom has been a long time friend who has handled several if not most of the real estate transactions for the Coffey Family for several years. He is honest and will tell it like it is even if it is not something you want to hear. Tom has always gone that extra mile in all of the dealings we have had and makes sure everyone understands what is happening and why. I have no problem recommending him highly.

Tom is a great Realtor with extensive knowledge of Coles County and the surrounding area. He is the only Realtor that gets our phone call, and follows up quickly and expertly every time. He has always gone far above the level of support and service expected, and has never disappointed us in any way.

Tom has handled every real estate transaction in Illinois for us in the last 20 years, most recently, this last Spring, and will continue to be our Realtor for many years to come.
