We worked with Mr. Speakman to rent a property. He placed his sign at the property and, by his own account, received nearly 35 calls per week over a two-month period, yet the property remained unrented. That, however, is not the primary issue. The real concern is that he decided, without any discussion with the homeowner, that he no longer wished to list the property. He then came to the property, removed his signs, and proceeded to ignore calls and text messages. When contacted from a different number, he answered immediately, only to falsely claim that his signs had been repeatedly stolen and that he no longer wanted to serve as the listing agent. At any point, he could have contacted us directly and handled the matter professionally. Instead, he chose to avoid communication altogether, which was both unprofessional and disrespectful.

Sold my mother’s Waterford tower condo in one day in a competitive market. He knows the downtown Columbus market well and his staging was on point. Highly recommend!

After casually perusing Zillow for a few months, my partner and I visited an open house in the Circles. We weren't interested in the house (needed more work than we were ready for), but Joseph struck up a conversation with us. After a little while, he said "I think I have a house coming on the market that you might be interested in." Just a few days later, he showed us a house that we fell in love with: perfect location, condition, blend of new and old, timing. The house was literally a better fit than anything we ever saw on Zillow. My partner and I have both owned homes before, and we just feel so fortunate. We made an offer before the house went on the market, which was accepted, closed, and really feel lucky to have met Joseph. We worked with him directly (he was the sellers' realtor) and he was forthright, kind, communicative, and professional. Highly recommend him!

Joseph represented us for both the sale of our home and purchase of our new one. On the purchase he did an excellent job negotiating fair terms with the Seller and came up with a creative approach to bridge the brief time between our purchase and sale of existing home that did not cost us anything out of pocket. In selling our home his local expertise allowed us to price at the right level resulting in a quick sale above asking price. He had the property staged and executed a flawless marketing plan. Highly recommend Joseph!

Working with Joseph Speakman was a smooth, seamless process. We could not have had a better experience in selling our home. A few highlights are… 1. Local expertise in 43201 2. Lender partnerships for our new house purchase 3. Over asking price offer 4. Professional staging 5. Timing a buy/sell 6. Small details that meant the world - like having moving boxes delivered to our door. He made what could have been a stressful time - an easy transition.
