"I have used Rex and Barbara Blackburn for real estate-they know everything going on with the golf course communities. He is great about sending ongoing info -especially via email-and found me my 21 acres. This is definitely the place to be -not AZ or FL."
-David Griffith

"We had the pleasure of being represented by Barbara and Rex Blackburn both as a buyer's agent and a seller's agent. In each instance we were impressed by two very dedicated, hard working, professional people; always willing to go the extra mile and share their expertise with us. From beginning to end they never disappointed us and always had our best interest at heart. We definitely feel a friendship was born and will continue as years go by."

My philosophy is simple: work hard, work smart, and enjoy what I do. I believe that client satisfaction is the key to success. I enjoy a solid reputation, both with brokers and clients. I’ve worked hard for that; I grew up with a big dose of my grandparents Texas farm work ethic, honesty, directness, sunrise to sunset, a hand shake.
I believe that a good agent is a good listener, a good communicator and a good problem solver. Loyalty, referrals, and repeat business mean a lot to me. It’s important to me that my clients truly understand the job we do for them. We are not ‘salespeople’, we are marketing agents. We represent and counsel clients in their purchase or sale of real estate.
Our job is threefold: representing a seller; the first step is marketing the property to maximize its exposure to potential buyers. Representing a buyer, the first step is to help the buyer assess his/her needs and then locate a home that best suits those needs, no matter the time involved. The second phase of the process is to negotiate the most favorable position for our client. The third phase and equally important is to manage the process thru to close. This requires constant and consistent communication with all entities involved in the transaction so that we reach a successful conclusion to the transaction and do so in a timely manner. It’s a process that I enjoy and look forward to.

- Married with three children
- Moved to the hill country area in 1992
- Curator of Mammals at the San Antonio Zoo for 15 years
- President of the Bulverde-Spring Branch Lions Club
- Board of Directors of the Bulverde-Spring Branch Chamber of Commerce
- Charter member of the Hill Country Chamber of Commerce
- Co-Chair for the Annual 5K Run for the Hills
- Participant in Habitat for Humanity
Ask most real estate agents about their business and all they tell you about is them, but it's really about YOU. For 32 years I worked in zoos throughout the southern United States. I find that in many ways being a Realtor® is like a Curator. The work is heavily focused on finding information, trying to prevent problems and solving those that occasionally arise.
Licensed since 1999, I am a member of the National Association of Realtors, the Texas Association of Realtors, and the San Antonio Board of Realtors. Remember that every tissue is not a Kleenex® and every real estate agent is not a Realtor®. A realtor abides by a strict code of ethics and continuing education. But what really matters is that you work with an agent who takes the time to listen and focus on your goals.

- Born in Cullman, AL and raised across the United States
- Married to Todd, with three beautiful daughters
- Served in the United States Air Force
- Over 10 years customer service experience
- Passions include a good book, a glass of red wine and the time to enjoy each

I was raised across the United States while my dad was serving in the Armed Forces. We moved often during my childhood and teen years. As an adult, I proudly served in the United States Air Force, where I met Todd. We moved to San Antonio in 1999, fell in love with the city and plan to retire here.
I specialize in military moves and the area around the new Toyota plant. I believe in putting the client's needs first, and by focusing on those needs reaching a new standard in service. Having moved so many times in my life gives me a unique perspective of how stressful this can be on YOUR family. Let me take some of that stress away.
