Cindy Baker and her team are amazing! I have worked with her over several years. If I ever have a place to sell or looking to buy, she is the first person I will call.

Cindy Baker team was amazing. They were very helpful. Our process to find the house we want was tedious. They were very patient. They answered all our questions. Gene was very knowledgeable about the houses, he had a keen eye on what’s wrong/ broken and needs to be fixed at the house. He was always very responsive to my texts and calls. He was always on time on submitting the offers and forms required. Abby was awesome too. My husband has worked with Cindy 10 years ago to buy our current home and this is the second time we work with them. We will definitely work with them again if needed.

The Cindy Baker Team did an exceptional job of assisting with the home buying process, again! This experience was just as great as the first time when we purchased seven years ago. Gene Baker continuously goes above and beyond as an amazing Realtor. We would highly recommend working with him. He is honest, trustworthy, and knowledgeable. We appreciated all of the guidance he provided to make buying our new home as easy as possible. Thank you Gene and Abby for your clear communication, organization, and knowledge. We appreciate you!

My husband and I have never had to sell a house before and everything I have heard about doing this sounded very intimidating and a little scary. I wanted to do everything the right way but wasn't sure of all the how's and what's. After talking with the Cindy Baker team members, they explained everything step by step and reassured me so that I felt confident of what was going to happen. This whole experience of selling a house was not the hassle I expected and Cindy's team was there for us every step of the way. I would recommend them to every one I know. Thank you for being there for us and working with us to make this happen.

As a new homeowner, Cindy was great at answering any questions I had along the way and was not afraid to go to bat for you if any issues came up. Gene Baker was also fantastic during the home hunting phase and answering any questions should Cindy be unavailable. I would definitely recommend the Baker team to anyone who is looking for a realtor!

The Baker Team helped me with two real estate transactions this year. When I was coming up against some roadblocks in my second transaction, Cindy was my rock and helpd me stay calm and get all of the necessary documents in order. Buying or selling your home can be a very stressful time. The Baker Team are professional and knowledgeable real estate professionals and great friends as well. Thank you Baker Team!

Boy I tell you ....I thought I could do it without Cindy and her team at first, but I learned quickly that I needed her expertise and assistance. She answered my call and set in motion a wonderful experience. Although we hit one or 2 hiccups, Cindy was always there guiding me. I have worked with and know Cindy for over 20 years - she continues to amaze me with her dedication to real estate, her expertise in the rules and regulations and her tenacity to get things done! I highly recommend this dynamite lady and her superb team!!!!

I have used realtors before but none like Gene Baker. In every house we looked at, the first thing he did was to look at structural issues. This was immeasurably helpful to me. Every time I contacted him to show me a place , he was immediately responsive.
When I did find my perfect place, I bought it because Gene assured me that he would help me through all the renovations, and that’s exactly what he did. My list of all he has done is a mile long.

Cindy Baker did an excellent job selling our home in Ballwin. The house had been on the market only a few days when she held the first open house, and we received a contract. Cindy was always available to answer a question. Our home was built in 1968, and it needed updates to meet the City of Ballwin’s strict requirements to bring the house to code before an occupancy permit would be issued. Cindy had tremendous recommendations for businesses to help me with repairs, and that made the process of selling our home so much easier. Cindy’s assistant was very helpful, and the title company Cindy uses (Freedom Title) was very helpful, and this made the process of selling so much easier.

There are not enough words to express my confidence in Cindy Baker and her team. I have worked with her on several transactions and always know that we are in the most capable hands in the real estate business. Sellers, take heart--Cindy is extremely aggressive with her marketing and will move your property fast! She sold my last home in 2 days. And if you're a Buyer, she's patient, thorough and truly advocates for you through the entire process. I absolutely love working with Cindy Baker and her team and could not possibly recommend her more highly. Hands down, BEST IN THE BUSINESS. Thank you, Cindy...yet again!

Cindy was excellent In facilitating a quick sale with our house. She was very professional and helpful. We relocated out of state and Cindy as well her team helped in every way.
I became aware of Cindy after moving into ballwin 4 yrs ago. I would see her signs , as well news letters all the time . She is well established in the neighborhood and liked by many. I am happy she was our agent , as I left the final time I again would see Cindy’s signs all the way out! She is a great agent!

Cindy and Gene were ready willing and able to help us through the multiple issues that come up during a home sale. They were especially helpful when a gas line leak occurred while we were out of town. They also recommend local companies and repairmen the did the work in a timely manner with reasonable rates.

Cindy Baker is absolutely the Best Real Estate Agent in St. Louis, Mo.
Her expertise, knowledge, personality demonstrate her ability to list, and sell a home. She and her outstanding team assist in any way to update information, answer questions, and guide you through the process.
Condominiums in my area, generally are on the market approximately 3-4 months. Cindy had mine sold in 6 days!!
Thanks for the great service.

Cindy is a dream to work with. She is on top of everything and makes sure her clients are taken care of at all times. She's a wonderful asset to your organization! I hope I never have to move again, but if I do I will definitely be giving Cindy a call!

The Baker team went above and beyond my expectations with specific recommendations and suggestions on getting my house sold and they were spot on! Sold it in 2 days!

Brilliant

Would not use any other agent

Knows of houses for sale before they are on the market

Cindy ensured a smooth transition from sale to purchase. She is an asset to BH. More importantly she secured us a great house & has the contacts for any improvements/repair to the property. Closing was easy & painless. Overall a very good experience.

Our realtor seemed very knowledgeable. There were a few things that we would have been better prepared for if we had more information up front, but I guess that's why you have a realtor.

Cindy is always really great at getting back to us.

We love Cindy. She is helping us to buy our new home also.

Agent found us our house before it hit the market.

Wanted someone who knew the area.

Can't say enough good things about Cindy and her associates. 5 star plus.

Would be glad to talk to anyone about Cindy and her knowledge of the Ballwin area and getting the job done.

Presuming you mean Cindy Baker, not me.

Cindy helped me through a particularly sticky situation. I can never thank her enough -- I now have my dream home. RE #5: While browsing real estate sited, I saw Cindy's smiling face beaming back at me. I instantly felt a connection and thought she'd be someone I'd like to work with. I was SO RIGHT!!

Already have, several times.

Cindy was incredibly knowledgable. There were a lot of twists and turns as we went through four buyers. Each had unique issues and Cindy plowed through each. On the one occasion where she did not know the answer, she went right to her broker for assistance. I think that is really important because she is a very experienced agent. Still, she had the confidence to not try and bluff her way through but instead, she immediately sought assistance.

Always responded promptly. Note that we live in Michigan so all interaction with Cindy and her team was by phone, email, text etc. We were always in contact.

The best.

Excellent at communicating - both listening and explaining issues to us as they arose.

Again - outstanding - and with this house there were a LOT of details.

There were a ton of problems and, because we were in Michigan, Cindy had to take the lead representing us on every issue. She did a terrific job.

We have bought and sold a total of six homes in Texas, Missouri and Michigan. Cindy is the best agent we ever had!

The sale of our home was extremely difficult due to a whole series of issues, none of which was Cindy's fault. She plowed through each issue as it arose, was open with us every step of the way, and somehow was able to keep the buyers coming long after my wife and I had become discouraged. I recommend her to everyone. To repeat, she is the best agent we ever had !!!!!!!!!

We purchased this home while moving from an apartment. This was our first time selling a home after failing to sell this home with other agents in previous years. Cindy was key in making sure we understood the value of our home and negotiating during tough circumstances.

There is a reason Cindy sells so many homes. She responds whenever news happened. It didn't matter when. It may have been hours that most agents wouldn't work, but Cindy was eager to pass on information or respond to our inquiries.

Cindy educated us on comps in the neighborhood and let us know how to make the proper decisions in pricing/negotiations based on the current market. She also helped us see what the past/future may hold based on market trends.

Call, text, and emails. It always fit our needs based on our schedule. She quickly addressed the best way to communicate with us during a specific time of day.

I don't know how anyone could be more on point when it came to the details.

I can't even begin to touch on all the issues the buyer provided yet Cindy had the answers to each one. So awesome.

You bet!! We tell everyone

We had an older home on a busy road with no basement. Good luck right. Not with Cindy. She said she could sell it and did. We knew we had few buyers that fit the home and had to be aggressive. I remember sitting with my wife one evening during negotiations and saying Cindy is awesome, we have to follow her lead. We did, and it worked out. We now live in our dream home and our kid is loving her new school. Thank you Cindy and team!!

Either knew little or misled us. See below.

Either knew little or misled us. See below.

Misled us often for the purpose of pushing deal through. See below.

Her tactic in resolving issues was to tell us what she thought we wanted to hear to make the problem go away.

The first property that she showed us, it was obvious that either she had no market value knowledge of the property, did no research before showing the property, or simply misled us and told us that the price was fair to encourage us to make an offer (we had done our research prior to the showing and knew her information was inaccurate). We had additional properties that we wanted to see but she did not call us back. Regarding the property that we ultimately purchased, when it came to discussing the selling price, she again either knew little about the market value, or misled us to push the sale through. She also told us that only one property had sold in the neighborhood in the past year, but our research showed five properties. When negotiating through the house inspection repairs, she misled us and said she had sent pictures to contractors to obtain quotes, but we later discovered that she had not. While we felt that ultimately we got a fair deal, it was only because we advocated for ourselves and did our own research, and had our own knowledge due to past experience buying and selling homes. (Between the two of us, we have experienced 15 home purchases in the past 25 years.) Also disappointing was the fact that we never received a thank you note, card, phone call, gift, or any acknowledgement that we put $9,000 in her pocket in commission. The happiest day of this whole process was the date that we closed, knowing that we would never have to deal with her again. We are currently looking at additional income property, but Cindy Baker and Berkshire Hathaway will not be getting our business. We have never had such a disappointing experience.

Cindy dominates the sales in the neighborhood.

Definitely in that neighborhood.

I told Cindy we wanted to sell fast and it sold in 1day.
