What clients say…

“I worked with Petra to sell my home during the tough housing market in Spring 2007. She was terrific to work with both during the listing process and during negotiations. I have worked with realtors in other cities before, and compared to those experiences, Petra is in a class by herself in terms of the amount of thoughtful attention and time she spends with each client, and her frank and honest communication style. Prior to listing, she recommended upgrades that I needed to have done and she also went the extra step to connect us with service providers who did the work quickly and affordably. Her suggestions were spot on, significantly improved the home’s appearance, and ultimately resulted in the home selling quickly. I was very impressed with the time she invested in monitoring the sale of my home while it was listed: she followed up after each showing to get feedback from the other realtors on their clients’ response to the home. Once offers started arriving, Petra’s negotiating skills truly astounded me. Thanks to her calm but firm negotiation, our house eventually sold for over $10K more than the initial offer. I wholeheartedly recommend Petra if you are looking to buy or sell a home in Columbus Ohio”. (Sold their home in Northwest Columbus Ohio - Riverside Hospital, Upper Arlington, OSU area)

“When I made the decision to sell my rental property, I thought it was going to be very difficult. Having worked with Petra in the past, I knew that Petra was my best choice. Not only did my duplex sell in half the time I expected, it sold OVER list price! Petra is one of the most honest, hardworking professionals I know… and I’m a Human Resources Director. By choosing Petra, you will be more informed and educated about your real estate situation than you knew possible. What are you waiting for, call her to find out what Petra WILL do for you!” (Sold his investment property in Gahanna)

OVER $50 MILLION SOLD - Proven Successful . . . . But what my clients say matters most!

Al & Tawny Whicker - Gahanna Ohio home seller testimonial:

“We contacted Petra to ask if selling our home of 10 years to step up to a bigger one was possible. Not only was it, she helped every step of the way. From recommending things we could do to make our home more appealing to buyers, to carefully pricing it and marketing it, she made the process much easier than it could have been.

What really blew us away was Petra’s marketing. She took fantastic pictures of the house, designed a beautiful flyer, created a virtual online tour with narration, and listed us on many web sites. The exposure was tremendous. In fact, as we searched the listings for our next home, it really showed how much better ours was marketed than most.

When it came to buying, Petra patiently listened, worked with our schedule, and took us to any home we wanted to see. She gave great input on pluses and minuses for each, including many things we wouldn’t have thought of, like future resale value.

In less than two months from listing, our house got an offer. Petra made sure the contract stipulated an extra week of possession after closing so we could have time to prepare our next home and move. There were no ideal homes on the listings for us that day, but one popped up the next day and we thought it would be perfect. That afternoon Petra met us there, and we were hooked at the front door. By the next day we had our offer accepted and were in contract to both sell the old house and buy the new one.

Petra was helpful and proactive every step of the way. We couldn’t have picked a better REALTOR®, and are immensely thankful for Petra’s work and can-do attitude that made the whole process much easier than we expected. Thanks, Petra! We whole-heartedly recommend you for anyone buying or selling!” (I sold their Gahanna home and helped them buyer their 2nd home in Gahanna)

The 2010 Home Buyer Tax Credit Ended - Now what?

While it is still a buyer’s market in Columbus Ohio, homes that are in the best condition and priced accurately for the current real estate market are selling, even quickly in some areas. Distressed home sales including: bank foreclosures, short sales and estate sales continue to be popular among bargain buyers. My practice of helping sellers prepare and price their home accurately has proven successful.
