" Barbie Lange did a great job selling our home. She was always prepared and always listened carefully to find out what was important to both my wife and myself. We appreciated the way she found ways to bring attention to our home after a pending sale did not go through. Barbie understood that we really liked our home and only were selling it to move out of state to be close to our grand children. We wished we could have picked up our home and placed it in our new location. She trusted that God would help us find the right people to sell our home to. I would strongly recommend Barbie Lange to anyone who is selling their home as the best realtor I have had the pleasure to deal with. "

" I don’t even know where to begin singing Wendy’s praises. When looking for a realtor, her name sort of fell into our lap. Since we live in another state, we had to trust that she would do us right. And right she did! She did a phenomenal job from beginning to end. Because of a family tragedy, we were put in a very difficult position, but Wendy was there to help us through it all. I’d never sold a house before, so I didn’t have a clue what I was doing. Wendy was very patient guiding me through every detail and answered all my questions, especially with signing all the forms. I was on a huge learning curve figuring all this out and she was a great help. She even listened as I spoke through my tears on the occasions I couldn’t hold them back. Her compassion and understanding made a world of difference. The house sold very quickly and she handled all the details since we do live in another state, but she kept us updated every step of the way. I would highly recommend Wendy as a realtor. She won’t let you down, and I know she will work as hard for you as she did for us. Thank you, Wendy! I don’t know what we would have done without you! "

- Karen Langford

" I would recommend Greg to anyone who is selling their home. He is professional and kept me informed on showings and possible clients.

- Sylvia Zimmerman

" Thank you so much for sharing this kind review! I’m so glad I could be there for you through the home buying process and now as your selling agent.

I’ll be with you every step of the way as we get your properties sold, and I’m grateful to have clients who feel like friends. "

" Wendy was great to work with during a very stressful time. My parents had moved in with me so I could help care for my dad who was on hospice and confined to bed. We needed to sell their home and the task was daunting. Wendy was very accommodating and worked with us to make everything as easy and smooth as possible. She was informative and honest yet not pushy. We trusted her every step of the way and have no regrets. The marketing was phenomenal from the staging, online photos and video, facebook posts and even the description on the listing. This was my childhood home and my parents home of 35 years and she captured our love for the home in the listing details. We were very pleased. We were also very surprised as we were in contract within 24 hours! Sadly, my dad passed away before closing but Wendy compassionately helped us through the final hurdles and we got the house officially sold. We had an excellent experience with her and would definitely recommend her to others. She is kind and trustworthy and very good at what she does. "

- King O

" We first contacted Wendy through a mutual friend who told us about “Lucy” , the free to use Next Home Next Stepp moving truck for Ashland County residents. We didn’t really need a large professional moving company to move our parent into assisted living, so finding this smaller, quicker to schedule option was great for us. It was such a great experience that when it came time to sell our parent’s condominium , we chose Wendy with confidence. Her local knowledge of the market, her timing and business networks were critical to the success of our sale. Wendy and her business networks freed us up to focus on moving our parent into assisted living. It was an emotional decision and Wendy was understanding and patient with our family. Wendy made the whole experience as seamless as possible , working with family located from three different states! The condo sold in record time at slightly above asking price. Wendy utilized social media, efficiently paired with local coverage to sell the condo. The McInturf family certainly appreciates Wendy’s professionalism, knowledge, and genuine compassion throughout this process. We couldn’t have done it without her! "

She was very thorough with her market analysis and explained how she arrived at the price. She was quick to get our house on the market and signs up. She gave us plenty of notice before showings and kept us updated on them as soon as she was able. She was great at explaining every line on all the paperwork we had to do from listing our house to looking at offers to getting ready for the closing.

" Our house sold much quicker than we thought it would and we had more offers than we ever expected. She helped keep us focused on what we needed to do to bring the property to a marketing condition. The videography, the photography, the staging - everything - was absolutely stellar and well worth the price. Wendy was so easy to deal with and always kept in touch. She truly went above and beyond what we expected her to do. She made this a wonderful experience. "

- Cindy Schuette

" I have known Barbie many years and she was always the person to get something done so when I decided to sell my house I asked her to be my agent. Needless to say, I made the right choice. Barbie did the work of 10 people and always kept me up to date with everything going on, down to the last detail. I was always notified of potential buyers, showings, open houses and all the other things that go on in the background most of us never know about. So, while I could write a chapter about why you should choose Barbie Lange as your agent, just know you will be getting the best person to help you sell, or buy, you home. One Hundred Percent Approval Rating from me. Thank you Barbie. "

- Tim Chandler

" I can’t say enough good things about NextHome Next Stepp and Wendy Anderson! My mom recently sold her home in Delaware and was looking for a fresh start near my sister in Ashland, Ohio. After my Dad passed away, she had been living in a house filled with tough memories, and moving was an incredibly emotional journey for her. Wendy was absolutely amazing throughout the entire process. Buying a home from out of state isn’t easy, but Wendy went above and beyond to make it smooth and stress-free. She treated my mom with kindness, compassion, and professionalism that really stood out. Wendy didn’t just help find a house; she helped my mom start a new chapter. One of the most touching moments was when Wendy gifted my mom a beautiful wall hanging for her new home, symbolizing her fresh start. It was such a thoughtful gesture that meant the world to her (and to me, too!). If you’re looking for a realtor who truly cares and will go the extra mile, I can’t recommend Wendy Anderson and NextHome Next Stepp highly enough! "

" What a great experience Wendy provided for me while purchasing a new home from a different state. She gave me the time to view houses from her phone on FaceTime then was available to walk through with my daughter as well. I made an offer on a house without physically seeing it from what my daughter and Wendy showed me from their phones. Then made time for me to actually see my new house for the first time. I had numerous questions dealing with closing electronically and she walked me through the process patiently. This is one real estate agent I would highly recommend! "
