Raelynn Barnett

For Raelynn Barnett, real estate isn’t just a career—it’s a passion fueled by a love for Northern Colorado and a deep desire to help others achieve their homeownership goals. A proud Colorado native, Raelynn grew up in Longmont before attending the University of Northern Colorado, where she earned her degree in General Business. She later planted roots in Greeley, building businesses and growing her family, before settling in Windsor’s Water Valley neighborhood—where she and her family take full advantage of everything Colorado living has to offer.

As a key member of The Rad Team, Raelynn brings a dynamic mix of personal real estate experience, entrepreneurial spirit, and a client-first approach to every transaction. Having bought, sold, and invested in properties herself, she understands the excitement—and challenges—that come with real estate decisions. Whether she’s guiding sellers through the listing process or helping buyers find their dream home, Raelynn is dedicated to making every step seamless, strategic, and stress-free.

Beyond real estate, Raelynn embraces an active Colorado lifestyle with her husband and two children—whether it’s biking the Poudre River Trails, soaking up the sun at Water Valley, or simply enjoying time together at home or on vacation. She specializes in Windsor and Northern Colorado, bringing expert insight and local knowledge to every transaction.

With Raelynn and The Rad Team, you get more than an agent—you get a dedicated partner committed to your success.
