San Jose, CA · Barnard Group

We're looking for agents
who are ready to grow.

Whether you're already licensed or working toward it, if you're hungry to build something real in real estate, we'd love to have a conversation.

Let's Talk

Who We Are

35 years.
Built the right way.

We're Kip and Tam Barnard. We've been building our real estate business in San Jose and the surrounding communities for over 35 years combined. Top 3% locally. Small, intentional, and deeply rooted in this market.

We're not looking to build a big team. We're looking for the right person. Someone who wants to grow, learn, and build something that's genuinely theirs.

What We Believe

Two things we feel
strongly about.

Building a real business

We believe the best agents build their own book of business through relationships and community. We'll teach you how to do exactly that, and invest in helping you get there.

Technology that works for you

The tools available to agents today are remarkable. We embrace them, use them, and we'll help you figure out how to make them work for your business too.

What We Bring

Here's what you get
when you join us.

Mentorship from agents with 35+ years of combined experience

Coaching rooted in real transactions, not theory

Full access to Compass tools, technology, and programs

A content and marketing infrastructure already built

Help identifying where you can maximize your potential

A culture built on honesty, accountability, and growth

For Newer Agents

A structured path
to accelerate your growth.

If you're newer to the business, we'll connect you with the Compass Masters program. It's a structured weekly learning environment designed to build real skills fast. Think of it as the foundation most agents wish they'd had when they were starting out.

It meets weekly, there's a small cost involved, and we believe in it enough to make it part of how we bring newer agents up to speed.
