"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
for Voting to Insure Columbus can Compete with other Major Cities
No doubt anyone who voted Tuesday couldn’t miss Issues 14–19 on the ballot. It may have taken some reading to get through them, but the end result was that Greater Columbus overwhelmingly approved all six issues and helped provide for our residents’ future.
Real Estate is about so much more than just a single property. Cities that don’t pass Bond Issues and don’t improve their infrastructure, parks or rec centers, or fix the potholes in the street don’t attract employers or home buyers. Columbus has stepped up and said the city is here to compete on par with any other.
The Greater Columbus Chamber of Commerce has said that approval of the package will provide 5,500 jobs in Greater Columbus each year for five years and put $3Billion (!) into our local economy.
These issues are important to the future of Columbus and I’m thrilled that Columbus Voters made it clear that they care about the quality of life in our neighborhoods and in our City.
The Dispatch said today that prior to this vote, the City had a string of 36 consecutive winning bond issues over the last 23 years. The City Auditor estimated that taxpayers will save around $28 million through the years in interest payments on $1.66 billion worth of projects such as:
street repairs and construction
sewer and water-service improvements
Bike Path building and maintenance
Trash truck replacements
New and rehabbed rec centers
For every $100 million invested by the City, $181 million is generated for the local economy.
