Luxury estate in the private Wingate Farms of Delaware County, Ohio

Posted to Columbus Suburbs, Phil Giessler, Real Estate Markets

I met Ben Corcoran, (SCRP of the Appraisal Group) at the luxury estate built by Paul Craver in the private Wingate Farms of southern Delaware County. The flowers looked beautiful and Scotts Lawn Service had just worked on the yard - it looks awesome. I invited Ben out to measure both the main house and the separate carriage garage that includes a full apartment. He’s going to provide a cad cam layout for marketing purposes. The infra red tool that he uses to obtain the interior measurements is called a Leica Disto laser. Pretty neat device! Ben commented that the architectural features and the plantation style design are unusual for the general Columbus, Ohio market.

Luxury home market residences are usually so large that pictures do not provide enough information for the savvy internet user. We feel that the addition of the cad cam layout and other images are necessary to market these estates. A probable buyer for this estate (or others above the $1,000,000.00 price point) is someone being relocated to the Columbus, Ohio market. We know that the web is the first source for many buyers - especially those transferring from out of state. Therefore, a thorough and unique on line presentation is necessary.
