And like many buyers, where we started was in home type a LONG way from where we ended.Our first discussions were about a Mason townhome community called Beacon Hill.  Upscale, very convenient to lots of amenities and unique in the area.  After seeing a couple and weighing options, an offer was written on one of them, and Murphy's Law at work, previous buyers whose contract had fallen through for financing reappeared WITH money and completed the sale.After debating whether to pursue another of the townhomes, they asked to see a few "regular" homes in the area, and one of the three wa... 08/22/2018

In a competitive real estate market where multiple offers are common on the best houses, a buyer has to do what a buyer has to do to win a house.Sometimes that means bumping off another buyer!!Hey, you do what you gotta do, you know???Now before you think the worst, there wasn't anything violent going on here.The home in Mason's Squire's Gate was listed as "Active" in Cincinnati MLS when we went to visit.  It was one of several we saw that afternoon, and when we finished discussing the homes and the pros and cons of each one, it was the home in Squire's Gate that was the winner.A four bedroom 2.5 bath 2 story home with an open floor plan and plenty of updates, there was a lot to like about this home.  Add in the nice deck and the greenspace behind the home and there was even more to lik... 07/25/2018

Got an itch to help people have their own home?  Then grab your hammer and head to the annual Build The Walls event at Christ's Church Mason on May 5, 2018.
