About Barry

About Barry Brown

Barry, with a very early interest in music and technology, began his career path as a musician in Cleveland, Ohio; "The Heart of Rock and Roll". Wanting to strive for perfection, he attended Kent State School of Music. Before beginning his Real Estate Career in 2003, it was this passion and knowledge that led to a 27-year career in sales and management with electronic retail chain stores. Barry used this time to master the skill of hard work, gain a unique understanding of business management and develop a devotion to client satisfaction. In 1999, a company move brought Barry and his family to the Central Coast. With the skills he mastered, a switch in career to Real Estate was a natural transition for Barry and he offers a unique home buying and selling experience. As Broker/Owner of Barry Brown Real Estate, he strives to continue his education to better serve his clientele by participating in his professional trade associations. Barry served twice as President of the Pismo Coast Association of REALTORS® and as a Regional Chair representing the Central Coast for the California Association of REALTORS®. These experiences have placed him as a well-respected practitioner with his peers and allowed him the resources available to understand the ever-changing real estate market and its laws to help protect homeowners' rights. With 21 years and over 340 transactions, buyers and sellers have trusted Barry to guide them through their Real Estate experience with caring and competent service. In 2019, Barry was awarded a "Lifetime Achievement Award" by his peers for his service.

Our transaction could've been a mess---incompetent and inaccurate selling party---but Barry basically made it all okay. We definitely would not have had a successful transaction without him, and we're confident that his excellent quality both as an agent and as a human being were the only reason we can now call ourselves homeowners!

Thanks to Barry Brown—our trusted realtor, advisor, and now friend—my fiancé Anaysa and I had an incredible experience buying our first home. From the very beginning, Barry made the process feel smooth, secure, and genuinely exciting. Even with challenges from the seller and the timing around the holidays, Barry remained responsive, proactive, and fully dedicated to us. He took the time to explain every step clearly, making us feel confident, informed, and truly involved throughout the entire journey. When we found our forever home, Barry handled every obstacle with professionalism, positivity, and determination. Sherie was also amazing—her support and care made a big difference, and we’re so grateful for her help along the way. One thing Barry told us that stuck was, “Your job is to find a home and fall in love with it—mine is to handle the rest.” He truly lived up to that. We highly recommend Barry and Sherie—you won’t find a better team.

We chose Barry Brown for the second time, about 9 years after he was our realtor when we first moved to the Central Coast. Again he proved to be very caring, patient and supportive of our needs in selling and buying a home. He can be counted on to be available when needed and always willing to go the extra mile. Highly experienced, knowledgeable and able to skillfully guide through options and problem solving if glitches come up. Thanks so much, Barry!
