Columbus Ohio area Home Sales up 8.6% in October

November 21st, 2011 categories: For Home Buyers, For Home Sellers, Market Updates

I’m finding that the market continues to be relatively active, more so than past years at this 4th quarter time of the year. More listings, more showings, more buyer actively looking and even beginning their searches late in the year.
Here is what the Board had to say about last month’s numbers. Note the bold orange [...]

WASHINGTON – April 7, 2011 – The federal government may or may not shut down after Friday. Lawmakers have drawn a line in the sand and, as of today, it appears they won’t reach agreement by the current deadline of [...]

Columbus Taxes, Suburban Schools – Columbus School Board extends “win-win”

May 7th, 2010 categories: For Home Buyers, For Home Sellers

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 [...]

Will The Columbus Housing Market be worse in 2010 than it was in 2009?

December 17th, 2009 categories: For Home Buyers, For Home Sellers, Market Updates, Real Estate News

Robert Hahn wrote an article that appeared on Inman News recently that was ripe with 2010 predictions regarding the state of Real Estate in the country. It is a good read and I liked his take on many of the subjects. Aside from mentioning the Jets not going to the Super Bowl, Hahn predicted that [...]

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 [...]

This afternoon President Obama signed the bill into law that will extend the $8,000 homebuyer tax credit to contracts signed by April 30 and closed by June 30.
I’m surprised that they left the two month window but I think it’s very smart. Still, even if it were this week, I would not try to [...]
