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 [...]

July 28th, 2009 categories: Bexley, Clintonville, For Home Buyers, For Home Sellers, German Village, Grandview, Olde Towne East, Short North, westgate
This is a post I’ve been thinking about for a long time. Over the last few years, Buyers have fallen on both sides of the dining room fence.

Historic Columbus Homes, Old Windows and New Ideas
March 24th, 2009 categories: Bexley, Clintonville, For Home Buyers, For Home Sellers, German Village, Grandview, Olde Towne East
