"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, March 08
"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, Feb 08
Columbus Real Estate September Recap - Downtown Columbus Condos
October 11th, 2007 categories: Condos & Lofts, Downtown, Market Updates
Downtown Columbus, unlike many suburbs, doesn’t have the seasonal school year ups and downs in buying. There isn’t as good a reason as there is in, say, Bexley for folks to buy their downtown Columbus condo and settle in just in time for the new school year.
Still, only FIVE homes were closed on in September in the Downtown area. At the low end, once again, was the LAST Yukon Lofts studio condo — A 3rd floor corner unit that went out at $145,900. $63/mo condo fee.
Right on that unit’s affordability heels, however, was a 2nd floor Connextions One Bedroom 785 sq ft flat for a mere $150,000. It came on the market in March at $175,000 and even though it didn’t have a lot of fantastic upgrades, it does have reserved parking and it’s still a good unit for that price. $205/mo condo fee.
How about the 2 bed, 2.5 bath 1521 sq ft unit on S 5th between Rich and Main for only $215,000. Cool private rooftop deck and a two car garage. It was the 3rd sale in the last 4 years but is still showed well. $200/mo condo fee.
Speaking of 2 car garages, The last corner unit at Rich St Walk sold last month for $269,505 (?). 1633 square feet, 2 bed, 2.5 baths. $169/mo condo fee.
Topping the sales last month was a 2 bed, 2 bath, 7th floor, 1481 sq ft Burnham Square condo at $445,000. This unit was nice with hickory floors, granite, stainless, and some other upgrades and was originally listed at $599,000. $386/mo condo fee.

The condo market in the Cincinnati Ohio and Northern Kentucky areas is very depressed at this time. There are many developers in both areas sitting on many unsold condos. The Ascent in Covington, South Shore Condos in Newport, Harbor Greene in Bellevue, River Pointe in Cincinnati, and a whole slew of condos in the downtown Cincinnati area as well.
This has created a buyers market for buyers. It is truly a great time for a buyer, as they can take advantage of this glut, by getting a much better price that what the develpers are asking.
