"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
Tell me about your favorite oddball Central Ohio Home
Not trashed so much as simply made of trash. Today’s New York Times has an article about a Texas man who builds homes from discarded materials…the ultimate green home. Better yet, he sells them to low income housing recipients at reasonable prices. This got me thinking about unusual homes in and around Columbus. Off the top of my head, aside from our stock of Lustron homes, I can’t really think of anything too out of the ordinary. Can You?
Send me your thoughts (the ongoing project at Indianola and Kelso maybe?) and they’ll appear in an upcoming post, pictures are even better.
From today’s New York Times….
“In 1997 Mr. Phillips mortgaged his house to start his construction company, Phoenix Commotion. “Look at kids playing with blocks,” he said. “I think it’s in everyone’s DNA to want to be a builder.” Moreover, he said, he was disturbed by the irony of landfills choked with building materials and yet a lack of affordable housing…..…..(more)”
