"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

Patrolling Columbus Streets is a Balancing Act
April 29th, 2008 categories: Columbus News, Downtown
The other day, when I was in Downtown Columbus, I spotted a police officer on a Segway. Who knew? Maybe only parking meter patrols use them because that’s a bunch of blank tickets in his back pocket. I’ve seen our mounted police in and around downtown Columbus and other city neighborhoods but never on a Segway.
