I recently had the pleasure of helping this sweet couple find the perfect condo in Dublin, and being a part of their transition to central Ohio to be closer to family. They built the home they have been living in in northern OH 50 years ago, and obviously the real estate market has changed greatly since then! I know they'll love being so much closer to their grandchildren, and will cherish making new memories in their new home! Welcome to Central OH, and thank you for trusting me to be by your side!

Seriously… I cannot get over the absolutely awful “flips” I’ve shown recently.. and for the love, STOP going overboard on the kitchen the kitchens while leaving 60+ year old windows, outdated electric panels, and trying to make things fit where they shouldn’t… it’s beyond frustrating, aggravating, annoying, useless whichever one you like. And can we please add a “scratch and sniff” feature, so we don’t have to go into properties that have apparently let cats use the whole house as a litter box?

Nothing will ever replace professionals who have been IN your home, as well as very familiar with the "comps" they claim to be using. Their data comes from various sources, in the form of flat numbers, and no true basis. Yes, these and other websites (that start with a "z") can give you a general figure, but for the most reliable and accurate info, consult your favorite agent! For tried and true methods for determining your home's value, you know where to find me! :)

Happy 4th of July! 🎆🇺🇸💛
Today is one of those days that just feels different.
The smell of something delicious on the grill. The sound of kids laughing in the backyard. Neighbors gathered together, lawn chairs out, waiting for the sky to light up. 🌟
There's something so beautifully simple about the 4th of July — it's a reminder to slow down, look around, and soak in the people and places that make life so incredibly good.
This country was built on the dream of freedom — the freedom to choose your own path, build your own story, and find your own place in the world. And no matter where life has taken you, today is a day to celebrate all of it. 🇺🇸✨
So whether you're watching fireworks lighting up the sky tonight, gathering around a table with the people you love most, or simply enjoying a quiet summer evening — I hope your heart is full. 💛
Wishing you and yours a safe, joyful, and truly beautiful Independence Day. 🎆

Yay!!

After nearly two decades of strategic financial management, the City of Powell and Liberty Community Infrastructure Financing Authority (LCIFA) have reached a major milestone: the debt used to build infrastructure supporting Golf Village is being fully retired ahead of schedule.

What does that mean for residents? More than 1,500 Golf Village property owners within Powell city limits are expected to see lower property tax bills, averaging approximately $1,800 annually.

This milestone is the result of years of refinancing efforts, long-term planning and a commitment to protecting taxpayer dollars.

After 24 years of living and working in Powell, I can honestly say there are a lot of reasons I love calling this community home.

In no particular order...

1. The Powell Festival
June 19–20, Village Green Park comes alive with live music, local vendors, great food, FIREWORKS, and the kind of community spirit that makes Powell special.

2. The Columbus Zoo & Lantern Festival
Having one of the nation's best zoos practically in our backyard is something I never take for granted. The Lantern Festival is one of my favorite summer experiences.

3. Nocterra Brewing
Great drinks, great people, and a welcoming atmosphere that feels uniquely Powell. It's become a true gathering place for the community.

4. Huli Huli Tiki Lounge
A little island escape without leaving town. Creative cocktails, fantastic food, and a fun energy that makes every visit feel like a mini vacation. It's the place we take our out of town guests!

5. The People
This might be my favorite reason of all. Neighbors know each other. Small businesses support one another. People still wave. There is a genuine sense of connection here that can be hard to find.

Powell isn't just where I work.

It's where I've built a life, raised a family, made lifelong friends, and found a community I'm proud to be part of.

What's your favorite thing about Powell?

⭐One of the most overlooked features of this home isn't inside the house.⭐

This property comes with a tax abatement through 2036.

Instead of traditional property taxes, the owner pays a Community Development Charge (CDC) of $9,000 per year.

Why does that matter?

✔ More predictable housing costs
✔ Potentially thousands in annual savings compared to comparable homes without an abatement
✔ Protection from the property tax increases many homeowners have experienced in recent years
✔ Nearly 10 more years of benefit remaining

Combined with a 2021-built home, private fenced backyard, paver patio, two separate living spaces, tons of storage, and a community packed with amenities, this is a unique opportunity for buyers looking for both comfort and long-term value.

Have questions about how the tax abatement works? Send us a message—we're happy to explain.
