Central Ohio Luxury Home Network

In July I had the opportunity to sit in on a bus tour for the Central Ohio Luxury Home Network. The Luxury Home Network is group of experienced Realtors from companies including Cam Taylor Realtors, Keller Williams, Coldwell Banker King Thompson, Remax, Dooley & Co., New Albany Realty, and HER Real Living. All the Realtors involved have had many years of experience in the Columbus, Ohio Luxury home market. Many of the agents involved have expertise marketing in certain areas of town but sell homes throughout all of central Ohio. In July’s tour we covered the northern arc of Columbus, inclusive of luxury homes in Worthington, Powell, southern Delaware County and Dublin. More specifically in subdivisions of Deep Run, Medick Estates, Old Worthington, Woodlands of Loch Lomond, Falcon Ridge, Woods on Seldom Seen, Wingate Farms, Olentangy Crossing, Golf Village Estates, and Wingate Farms. Though the tour was longer than expected I had the opportunity to listen to some of the finest Realtors in Central Ohio. Hopefully I will have the opportunity to do so again!

One of the highlights of the tour was listening to Geoff Ortlip, of Planned Communities, Inc. give a presentation on their new developments in Delaware county named Olentangy Crossing and Olentangy Falls. I have always been fascinated in watching how land is developed and redeveloped and the processes that take place within that realm. To see how someone can envision a development from seeing a space, create a blueprint, and then have the plan executed is an interesting an amazing process to me. I look forward to being able to continue to see the lots being purchased and new homes being built. The area is seeing tremendous amount of growth with companies such as Kroger, OSU Medical Center, Ohio Health, Columbus State, CITI Bank and many other businesses coming to the area.

We also were able to see two new masterpiece homes built by“Housewright” Builders, Paul Craver. The attention to detail in both homes was amazing every square foot of the home was masterfully created and executed with the finest of finishes.

If you are interested in learning more you can contact Greg or Phil Giessler of Cam Taylor Realtors or any of the other fine real estate agents involved in the Central Ohio Luxury Home Network.
