Clintonville Charmer! and the Lack of Originality in Columbus MLS Remarks
March 1st, 2010 categories: About Me?, Clintonville, For Home Buyers, For Home Sellers
You’d be amazed how often I read the remarks on a new listing, check out the history of the listing in the Columbus MLS, and find the EXACT same remarks the previous agent used. It’s uncanny. Sometimes the remarks are in the entirety, sometimes it’s most of the old remarks with a few fresh ones [...]

Sometimes, having a Realtor with a stellar web presence pays off. While it probably won’t create a sale, and despite the objections regarding the color of the dining room and the potential addition of an eat-in table in the kitchen, today’s airing of my listing at 1224 Fair [...]

Can Downtown Columbus Rebound from City Center’s Fall & will Buyers continue to Move Downtown?
October 21st, 2009 categories: About Me?, Downtown
I’ve always been a fan of City Center. Everything everyone has ever pointed out about its faults, chiefly that it should have opened up to the streets surrounding it, has been true but it held a special place in the downtown retail fabric. I’m a buy-local guy and not a fan of big box retailers, [...]

Sidewalks. Do they add value? Whose responsibility are sidewalks?
September 29th, 2009 categories: About Me?, Bexley, Clintonville, For Home Buyers, German Village, Olde Towne East, Short North
I’ve found that sidewalks tend to be a value added feature for buyers looking at Columbus Homes for sale. Most of my buyers buy homes inside of I-270 and most of my buyers prefer to have sidewalks for ease of travel when walking around the neighborhood, for a safe place to meet and greet neighbors, [...]

This Columbus Home has Instant Equity — Oh Really?
September 14th, 2009 categories: About Me?, Bexley, Clintonville, Downtown, For Home Buyers, For Home Sellers, German Village, Grandview, Market Updates, Olde Towne East, Real Estate News, Short North, westgate
Instant Equity. Two words anyone buying real estate in Clintonville, Bexley, Grandview, Downtown, Short North, Berwick, Westgate or anywhere else in Central Ohio love to hear.
The problem is, I’ve heard those two words too often lately. The problem is the context and the definition of instant equity. In my opinion, anyone buying a home that [...]
