"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 - Short North homes for sale/sold December update
January 3rd, 2008 categories: Short North
It wasn’t a bad month in the greater Short North area in December. 13 homes sold in all – including (I know it’s a bit of a stretch) 1502 Hamlet which I loved. This Weinland Park area home has 3 beds and 1.5 baths, a 2 car garage and a nice backyard. It was lovingly updated and sold for $138,363 in only 28 days.
Short North Condos for sale ruled the month of December with the average of the 6 Short North Condos that sold earning $175.06/sf including
- 2 Dakota condos
- a nicely located Dennison Ave 2 bedroom for $159,000
- a Harrison Park 2 bed, 2 bath Flat for $229,112
- a 1392 sq ft Price Ave Condo with 3 beds and 1.5 baths (do those have a name associated with them?) for $236 in only 12 days.
- One of those 1900 sq ft 2 bed 3 story Olentangy waterfront condos on Bradley for $242,000.
Take away the Condos, and you’re left with 6 homes selling in the Short North/Victorian Village area in December but three of those were Harrison Park homes which the MLS counts as condos b/c of the $100/mo association fee. The 2 four bedroom new builds that sold averaged about $153/sf.
So the three single family homes that sold in the Short North averaged
- almost 1600 sq ft
- only 71 days on market
- $145.11/sf
- $231,600 or 98.6% of list price
one of those three homes belonged to my long time ad guy at The Other Paper and he was happy to move on with his life and regain the time associated with a single person owning a home.
Is it the Short North you want? You need to be working with a Realtor to be on top of the market.
