    Sold a Single Family home in 2013 for approximately $375K in Blacklick, OH.
    I've worked with Don in buying and selling 7 homes. Wow, hard to believe. Each home was located in a different part of Columbus including Pickerington, Downtown, Hilliard, New Albany, Gahanna, and Blacklick and one way out of the market area, in Nashport. More than half the time my home sold in under 30 days. Two of the homes sold before the sign went into the yard, and one sold within 6 months in a market where nothing in my price range had moved in the previous 24 months. A significant other convinced me to list one of the homes with another realtor and it spent 6 months on the market with zero showings. Don sold it in under 30 days. He is the best. I appreciate his no-nonsense approach to providing you with his personal market research and opinion on what the home is worth, determining a listing price, and smart negotiating to a completed transaction. Don is just as wise in negotiating on the buying side working to get the most value for his client.More Less

    Sold a Single Family home in 2012 for approximately $175K in East Broad, Columbus, OH.
    Don was very helpful in helping us perform a Short Sell of our house. He worked tirelessly on our behalf and kept us updated on the process through it's completion.

    We are very grateful for his ability to market our house, work with our bank and the buyer so that we would have to invest little time other than signing on the dotted line at closing when the house sold.More Less

    Testimonials


    Scott W
    "I would like to highly recommend Mr. Don Shaffer as a top realtor. My wife and I obtained Mr. Shaffer's services because we were in a unique situation. We had to sell our house quickly, so that we could move back into our other house. We knew this would be a difficult task due to the economy. After careful consideration, we chose Mr. Shaffer. When I first spoke to Mr. Shaffer, he went over what our options would be due to our particular circumstances. I'm must say that the whole process can be a bit confusing and overwhelming but Mr. Shaffer put us at ease. He was very informative and had an answer to all of our questions. He made the process so simple for us. The house sold very quickly and all the paperwork was completed promptly with no problems. We feel that if it wasn't for Mr. Shaffer's expertise that our house would still be on the market and we would be in a very unfortunate situation. We thank him for all his hard work and efforts and would recommend him to anyone who is thinking about putting their home for sale.


    Bonnie
    "I was 100% satisfied with the handling of my house. I felt you were honest and upfront about the market including pricing of the house. I will definitely pass on a good word for you if I get the opportunity."


    Jeri
    "Don was upfront and honest with us from the beginning.... pricing our home at the correct amount and knowing who the market for our home would be then going after them. He followed through promptly on everything and was very easy to reach. It (selling our home) was very quick and we had a lot of anxiety due to the fact that we hadn't closed on a house for 14 years.... Everytime we had worries, Don took care of them.

    We had originally thought of selling our home ourselves because real estate fees are not cheap, but in this case it was worth every penny. We have since referred Don to our close friends. We would certainly not have done that had it not been a great experience for us."


    Andrew
    "It was a great experience, overall. We encountered several bumps along the way but we are very happy with where we ended up. Don answered any and all questions and concerns throughout the home buying/selling process."
