Starting in July the monarch butterflies are emerging to fill the outdoors space at the Franklin Park Conservatory at 1777 East Broad St Columbus OH 43203 but you can find them all year round inside the Pacific Island Water Garden. Just don't let them hitchhike out with you when you leave. My family also enjoyed watching the glass blowing taking place in the courtyard. Just a great way to spend a few hours.
The Chihuly's glass exhibits worked in among the fauna lends an artistic detail that you might not expect from your Franklin Park Conservatory. I was able to get some photos that I enjoyed enough to share.

Just sold by Mickey DiPiero in under 90 days is the condo at 2912 Betsy Ross Rd Columbus OH 43207 in the Village at Williams Creek. This three bedroom, two full bath condo sold for $44,315 and closed at the end of June. This ranch style condo was a short sale located directly across from the centrally located green space for the community.
What is a short sale? A short sale is when a home owner owes more on the home than it is currently worth. The home is said to be underwater. The decline in the real estate market has created many short sale opportunities in the past few years. In a short sale, the home is marketed for sale and once an offer is made on the property the list agent takes the offer to the mortgage holder and negotiates with the lender to agree to take less the the actual mortgage amount. This is important because in Ohio a mortgage follows the property, not the person. So if you buy a property that has a remaining mortgage, you just bought the property and the debt.
Short sales can be long and uncertain processes with many potential pitfalls that can take up to six months to finish. Make sure you are working with an agent who knows the in and outs of the process. An agent trained in short sales will make all the difference. If you have questions about short sales or any other real estate opportunities please contact us today.

Serving the Columbus, Ohio area with knowledge, experience, and integrity. Tell us what your goals are and we will help you achieve them!
Our Story:
Once upon a time a boy met a girl that was way out of his league. Luckily she was willing to settle for a good sense of humor and thus a great real estate team was born. This detail- oriented girl and marketing- savvy boy now use their talents to help buyers and sellers throughout the Columbus, Ohio area realize their real estate goals. Our complementary personalities and skill sets enable us to provide a comprehensive, personalized real estate experience for our clients. Below are just some of the qualities that distinguish our work and set us above the crowd.
Dedicated to the Client's Experience:
Whether you are buying or selling a home, Mickey and Lisa DiPiero are dedicated to providing you with outstanding service and results. We use a consultative approach to help our clients navigate complexities of the real estate process. Our job is not "sell" you on a particular home, but to be the professionals, lending our knowledge and experience so that you can make the right decisions with confidence.
At the same time, we work hard to ensure that you will receive the individual attention that you deserve. You'll find easy to get a hold of and always available to address your questions and concerns in a thoughtful manner. In an age when customer service seems to be a lost art, we pride ourselves on the level of service we provide our clients.
Uncompromising Ethics:
We have built our business by earning the trust and confidence of our clients. We believe in loyalty is the most important trait in any relationship. We also believe that in order to receive anything you must first be willing to give. The foundation of our client-centered business philosophy is our Core Principles:
To be honest in all endeavors
To put our clients' well being and best interests first
To live up to our standards of excellence
To do what we say we will do, often more, never less
Committed to Education and Training:
One of the things that we love most about real estate is the dynamic nature of the industry. Keeping up with the never-ending changes in lending, real estate law, and marketing can be challenging, but it's a challenge that we really do enjoy. The opportunities to expand our knowledge base and grow professionally are endless, and we take advantage of as many of them as time will allow us. Our focus on quality continuing education and expanding our knowledge base beyond the mandatory requirements enables us to provide our clients with the best possible representation.
Embracing Real Estate Technology:
The real estate industry has changed dramatically in recent years, and our practice has kept pace with those changes. Not long ago, agents marketed listings primarily to other agents and home buyers poured over classifieds to find new homes. Now it's all about on-line home searches, listing syndication, and SEO. As members of Real Living's select group of E-team Performers, we meet with other members to discuss and learn about the best, most innovative technologies available. For our sellers, this enables us to stay on the cutting edge of on-line marketing to get their homes sold. We are also able to provide our buyers with the most accurate and up to date listing information as well as home search organization tools to make their buying experience even better.
Buyer and Seller Representation
We often are asked which we like to work with more- buyers or sellers. That's a difficult question and the truth is we love both for different reasons. Nothing matches the excitement of helping a family move into their first home or their dream move-up home. We know that we have used all of our resources and abilities to help them find the right home, negotiate the best price, and get them to closing with a minimum of issues- not always an easy job in a constricted lending climate. On the other hand, we have a huge sense of accomplishment when we have successfully marketed and sold a home in this challenging market. Our marketing strategies are customized to fit each client's home and unique needs. They combine a strong internet presence with the very best of traditional methods to sell a home for the most amount of money in the shortest period of time. We help our sellers close one chapter and move onto the next in their lives with as little stress as possible. In the end, making a meaningful contribution to an important life transition for both our buyers and sellers is what our business is all about.

We felt well informed about all the details of the homes you showed and your knowledge of the market resulted in a purchase of a home that is perfect for us and our needs.

We were constantly aware of our rights and options as buyers and felt confident throughout the process with you guiding us. Lisa was always very prompt and always very quick to point out potential homes the moment they were on the market.
