I believe that real estate is more than just a transaction. As a REALTOR® with CENTURY 21 Signature Real Estate, I build my business by referral, and therefore my goal is to provide every home buyer and seller in Iowa with an extraordinary experience that puts people before sales.
Closing the sale matters, but more important is having a trusted advisor in your corner who has your back every step of the way and is able to keep you safe from potential pitfalls.
Reach out if you want to talk about selling your home, buying a property, investing in real estate, or learning more about your local community.
“Chris did an exceptional job! She went above and beyond when it came to showing me countless properties and getting me into them quickly. She even came to show me a house with a 30 minute notice! She was attentive and knew what I was looking for and helped me find the right property. Always available and answered any questions I needed in a timely manner. I'm glad I got the chance to work with her and I will be recommending her to anyone that's looking in the future!”

“Christine was assigned to me when I expressed interest in a property. I'm very grateful we were matched up! Christine Barrows brought great market valuation information to every showing. She reached out to me regularly with ideas and to check if I wanted to go to any showings, She showed genuine care in helping me find the perfect home, and traveled to so many properties outside the Des Moines metro. Her expertise in home value, pros and cons of properties, and persistence in a very challenging market were outstanding, and truly appreciated. In a very challenging market, I was able to realize my dream of owning my own home because of Christine Barrows at CENTURY 21. She went above and beyond to keep me moving toward my goal. I couldn't be happier.”

When we decided to not put an offer on the home she was listed as the agent for, she was very diligent I helping us find a home that worked, even if it wasn’t a 21st Century home. We ended up purchasing a for sale by owner home, and she did a phenomenal job navigating the whole process. I would highly recommend working with Christine!”
