Testimonials:
From the start, Mike did an outstanding job, provided the best possible advice about the market and delivered the most attentive customer service ever. I have completed transactions nearly 20 times this dollar volume, and his handling of our small deal was as good as any I have ever had the pleasure to experience. – Steve Shirk (9/1/2020).
Mike Durbin is the consummate professional. The sales process was transparent, efficient and dare I say pleasant. He anticipates issues and resolves pending matters and concerns with dispatch. Above all Mike and his team got qualified buyers through the door and closed the deal ahead of schedule. I highly recommend Mike Durbin. - Nancy Larson (2/27/2020).
I worked with Mike Durbin on a couple different medical building transactions. He filled in last minute for a colleague dealing with a family emergency. He has been amazing in his communication, knowledge and work ethic. He has gone above and beyond, often calling/texting/emailing me back even on evenings and weekends. I never felt rushed or forced into something to fit his agenda. He listened and provided feedback. He sought out answers when they were not readily available. My wife and I are appreciative of his work. Give Barber-Murphy a call and ask for Mike Durbin. - Dr. Swastik Sinha (2/5/2022).
