I am editing this review to reflect more business done with Mason. We recently came back to Georgia, and I called Mason to see about finding some land and/or a house. The first property that we had an offer on was an estate sale that the seller ended up dropping the contract on, and then we came to our current purchase, which was a HUD home. Mason's experience shone throughout, as HUD paperwork has very little room for error. We met for coffee one night, went through the entire stack of papers, submitted with overnight delivery, and everything was accepted by HUD the first time around! We have since closed on and repaired the house, and are in a great position for later. As a carpenter and avid (to a fault) do-it-yourselfer, I am not the greatest client to have for a realtor, but Mason is a champ, and has pushed through contracts and attempted contracts on short-sales, bankruptcies, FHA, VA, estate sales, and now HUD transactions with me. He is constantly working behind the scenes, usually having answers ready before I even get a chance to approach him with my questions. He isn't one just waiting to collect a commission, Mason acts as a true agent for you as a buyer or a seller. Original Review: I've worked with Mason twice, once to buy and another time to sell. When I bought the house, he helped me get a great deal and close in a timely fashion, especially given that the house was a bankruptcy. When I sold the house a couple years later, we had showings all the time (sometimes multiple showings a day), and we got exactly what I wanted to get for the house. Can't argue with results! read more

I would highly recommend Mason Barrett to anybody who wants a good and knowledgeable realtor who truly listens well to the desires of his clients and genuinely cares about them and their needs. I saw first-hand his knowledgeable attention to details as we walked through a house that we considered making an offer on. While my wife and I were looking around, Mason noticed that the changes the homeowner had made to the house would not pass local city codes. Needless to say we moved on to other houses after learning that from him. He spared us from what probably would have cost us a lot of time, money, and headache! Any bit of information that I wanted to know about the house hunting process or a particular house, he was very prompt in getting back with me. I really appreciated him looking out for us. I never once felt rushed or pressured into making any decisions by him. He was patient, professional, courteous, and understanding. He took care of all the details and helped us to have a great home-buying experience; this is coming from one who does not enjoy the house hunting and buying process at all!!!! Would I personally use Mason Barrett again? Yes, there is no doubt in my mind. I recommend him to my friends, too, because I believe that he will take good care of them. read more

We are a military family who purchased a home in the Augusta area that went downhill after we were moved elsewhere. For several years, we rented it while watching the neighborhood deteriorate from a distance. Finally, with the home dipping far below our mortgage level, we decided it was past due time to sell. We asked Mason to help us, knowing that it was likely going to be a tough property to sell that wouldn't bring him much profit, but he didn't hesitate to agree. While we were on the other side of the world, he not only deflected low-ball bids and helped us to arrange the needed upgrades it would take to sell the home, but he also maintained excellent communication and managed to finally get the property sold against our hopes at almost the same level of what we owed on it, despite almost a decade of the neighborhood going downhill. For all of his hard work, I only wish we could have sold it for more for HIS sake, since he deserved a much better commission for that much effort. Anyone looking to sell a home that wants an honest, reliable, and responsive agent who can get you top dollar for your property would do well to choose Mason. read more

I highly recommend using Mason for your real estate needs! He assisted us in finding and purchasing our first home a few years ago and then helped us sell it a few months ago when we were ready to build a new house. We've had two great experiences with Mason and he exceeded our expectations each time! He's extremely knowledgeable about the real estate market in North Augusta and the surrounding area and truly looks out for his client! Communication was great and he answered any and all questions we had being first time home buyers and sellers! If you're looking for a trustworthy and knowledgeable agent that keeps your needs his first priority, Mason is the real estate agent for you! read more

Mason was absolutely amazing to work with. We had ti get our home sold fast, because we were already in negotiations on a new home. Within three days of listing, we had our first showing, and they submitted an offer for full asking price that evening! I was understandably nervous about getting stuck with two mortgages, but Mason heard me and assured me he would get the job done. He did that and then went the extra mile. Thank you Mason, for all your hard work and making what would otherwise have been a stressful situation into an enjoyable one! read more

Mason Barrett was knowledgeable about the market, a strong negotiator, great communicator, very patient, and always available to speak with us about our property. We had an investment property which we decided to sell; we asked our attorney for a referral. He readily suggested Mason Barrett as someone we could trust to do an outstanding job for us. And he did! We were under contract in week. It was a rock solid experience and we came away grateful for the opportunity to work with Mason Barrett and his first-rate office! read more

Mason is great landlord! Very professional, supportive, and friendly! He was quick to resolve any issues that I may have been experiencing. He always informed me if anyone was coming to house to spray or to fix an item. He always asked for my permission to go into the home if I was unable to be there and I appreciated that. He also made himself available if I called or texted. I will always refer him! read more

Best realtor I have worked with in 3 home purchases. First, I hate realtors and lawyers. But I was honest with Mason about this latest home purchase, and he was very helpful in showing us homes that worked for our needs. He is a realtor... He gets paid based on you buying a home... He wants you to find a home that works for you. That is a good realtor. You won't be disappointed. read more
