Interstate 70/71 Split Fix will stress neighborhoods but eventually be good for Columbus Real Estate
July 20th, 2010 categories: Real Estate News
I love the idea of a functional Broad Street bridge over I-71 that is pedestrian friendly with no on or off ramps coming onto Broad. Throw in that treed, park like median we’ve all been hearing about for years, extend it to Franklin Park and we’ll be in business.
It’s going to be a pain for residents of KLD and OTE for the next 4-6 years and there will be inconveniences. I don’t think property values will be adversely affected in the short term. I do think that, in the end, with a solution in place that looks better, feels better and will be more connected than what is currently there, property values and interest in these areas will increase–with an obvious bump up for OTE and KLD which have so much more pricing room than German Village.

Is the best home search ap for smart-phones’s getting even better?
July 15th, 2010 categories: About Me?, For Home Buyers
I’ll be the first to admit that I’m a geek about mapping and home search solutions. The more intuitive the better. Cool factor is nice too. A while back, I wrote about Realtor.com’s new iphone ap and called it the best home search ap for smart phones on the market.
While following a Real Estate conference in [...]

Helpful Columbus Open House Visitor Researches Construction Date – 1st time for everything
July 13th, 2010 categories: Real Estate News
If you’re looking at ages on homes for sale in Columbus, Ohio, you’ll notice that many homes in areas surrounding downtown appear to have been built in 1920. Many Columbus homes date to 1920 because, as I understand it, there was a fire at the courthouse in that year and the actual dates of construction [...]

Come to the 2010 Olde Towne East Summer Tour of Historic Homes
July 8th, 2010 categories: Real Estate News
The big news, of course, is that 1224 Fair Avenue will be holding an Open House from 1-5 on Sunday. I’m toying with the idea of making this Open House the first ever Live Streaming Open House in Columbus Ohio. (That I know of anyway) It just so happens that the Summer tour of Historic [...]

Moving to Columbus, Ohio and wondering if Ohio has any Wineries?
July 8th, 2010 categories: Real Estate News
This would be a good weekend for you to be in town. After relocating to Columbus, you’ll want to sit down with a local wine and take it easy. Though most of Ohio’s wineries are located outside of Central Ohio, it’s not all cornfields out there.
For the ninth year, one of Columbus’ culinary treasures, the [...]

Some Realtors…
…think they are too good for a listing. They may feel it does not fit their clientele, or it doesn’t reinforce their brand. Believe it or not, some agents try very hard to live up [...]

Consider the Cost Cutting and Environmental Impact as well as the Curb Appeal of Trees
July 6th, 2010 categories: Real Estate News
It’s 90 degrees+ all week here in Columbus, Ohio. This week, more than ever, Buyers of Homes for sale in Columbus may be looking for shade. Often the only time home owners seem to consider their trees are when they are overgrown and a menace to the home–often this begins at the first visit with a worried look from me when a 100 year-old oak tree is looming large over the new third floor master.
Buyers love trees and Sellers should be planting them and trimming them before they put them on the market. Here is a nice little reminder about trees and real estate from NAR …
