About Michele Barkman

I have been in the real estate industry for over a decade. Before transitioning into real estate sales, I spent 12 years as an administrative assistant gaining a deep understanding of the industry’s inner workings. Working closely with leading professionals in Bedford County, I developed a strong foundation in real estate principles, business operations, and client service. As a multiple million-dollar producer since the very first year of selling, I have built a reputation for delivering results. Whether working with buyers or sellers, I have the ability to guide clients through the complexities of the real estate transfer process, ensuring each transaction is seamless and stress-free. Attention to detail and a commitment to clear communication have become hallmarks of my work, enabling clients to navigate their real estate journeys with confidence. I will consistently go above and beyond to provide excellent service. Active memberships in the Pennsylvania Association of REALTORS® (PAR), National Association of REALTORS® (NAR), BRIGHT MLS, and the local Allegheny Highlands Association of REALTORS® (AHAR) MLS for Bedford and Blair counties, reflect my dedication to staying current with market trends and maintaining a network with other highly active agents. A lifelong resident of Bedford County, I enjoy an active lifestyle with family and plenty of animals. Outside of real estate, I love spending time outdoors with my spouse, daughter, or friends embracing the natural beauty of the area.
