"You scored a lot of points with us when you answered my specific questions straight up without any BS. I think other Realtors would have told us what they thought we wanted to hear." - Brad Rosser
"As a first-time homebuyer, I was nervous about the entire process. Step by step, Joe made it easy and fun. His expertise in the Columbus real estate market is a tremendous asset. He is highly recommended!" - Nicolette Horan
"I wanted to say thank you again, so much, for all your hard work. I know that you really put a lot of time into this transaction and I really, really appreciate it. I'm so happy I got the house and it all worked out and I just wanted to say thanks again, you did a great job and i really appreciate it. I will put that on the survey when they send it to me.
If there is ever anything I can do for you, please don't hesitate to give me a call. I will refer every single person I know to you. I'm going to go get my dog and we're going to sit on the floor of our new house and have a glass of champaign.
Thanks a lot Joe" -- Michael Mamp
Since the city has finished up the South of Main Sewer project in Eastmoor, I’ve been driving by this soon-to-be auto parts store (and one-time site of Columbus’ last Skyline Chili) almost every day and wondering why in the world it’s OK to build the equivalent of a giant pole barn on East Main Street in Eastmoor.
I’ve recently had a good number of buyers interested in the Eastmoor area. Eastmoor is a fantastic community with great homes, decent $/sf and a sense of pride. They have a strongish civic association but the lack of checks and balances at City Hall allows ugly projects like this to built this close to the city center.
I can’t imagine this eyesore is what the city of Columbus had in mind when they, almost a year ago, approved the Eastmoor Main and Broad Corridor Revitalization Plan in an attempt to guide the redevelopment of those critical commercial corridors.
When I drove by the other day and saw them pouring the parking lot that runs to Main Street, I thought this is another example of why development for development’s sake is a recipe for undesirable neighborhood streetscapes. Bexley city council would never have allowed this building a mile West and Columbus’ Development Department should not have allowed it here.
Eastmoor was annexed to the city of Columbus in 1937. It is bounded by Bexley on the west, Whitehall on the east, Livingston Avenue to the south, and the CSX Railroad to the north.
