Penny was absolutely exceptional to work with! As first time home buyers, my husband and I had plenty of questions and a lot to learn. Penny was with us every step and was professional, kind, and honest (and she answered our list of questions with a smile always). We highly recommend Penny for anyone looking for their next home! Thank you, Penny!!

Penny Smith is the gold standard for realtors. When purchasing our new home, Penny helped us to successfully navigate the bidding process. She kept us very well informed of each step of the buying process. Her expertise and calm nature made the experience smooth. Penny then helped us sell our previous home. She kept us on track for an open house date, and helped us successfully sell our home quickly and efficiently. Even after the experience, Penny has checked back in on us to see if we needed anything. We not only consider Penny an EXCELLENT realtor but also a friend.

Very happy with the work that Penny did! She sold our house in less than a month. She also helped me with doing some things in the house after I had moved out of state during the sale. Her expertise helped make the process easier and she was always willing to help. I highly recommend her for anyone else needing to sell their house!

Penny was very knowledgeable of the Columbus market, she gave great advice on how to upgrade our condo to sell. Her team was so nice to work with and everyone communicated well even when it was long distance. She was constantly updating us through the whole process which made everything go so smooth. The condo had a lot of exposure and sold very quickly. If anyone is interested in selling or buying a home....I highly recommend Penny.

Penny Smith is quite simply the best real estate agent my wife & I have ever dealt with - professional, personable and very creative. She handled a very difficult estate sale of a condo in Columbus, Ohio for us while we were stuck out here in California due to the pandemic. We will be ever thankful that we were able to work with such a skilled & knowledgable agent. TONY & LEILA LEHTONEN

Penny did a great job for us and she was even able to determine the correct listing price, such that the appraisal agreed with her estimate.
Penny was easy to work with and very helpful in the listing and sale of our home.
Here during and after sale hand holding was very spot on and greatly appreciated, by both my wife and I.
Penny would be our first choice if we had another property to sell.

Other than getting us top dollar +++ for our house in less than a day, she also communicated with us constantly. We knew everything we needed to know during the selling process, from staging, to showing, to picking the right offer.
And she recommended a great moving company.
Could not be happier!!!

I just can't say enough about Penny Smith! She was right with us every step of the way, from an initial consultation right down to the last stroke of the closing document pen! We never had to wonder what our status was along the way and often just checked in to see how we were feeling. Even after the closing, Penny offered advice as we needed an expert opinion about our new house closing process. Do not hesitate to hire Penny!!!

Selling you home can be a rather stressful process. Penny is knowledgeable, professional, understanding, and patient. She handled all the documentation with expertise and made the process as seamless as possible. She is a skilled and able negotiator. Penny is a pleasure to work with and I highly recommend her.

Penny Smith has been our adovcate throughout the sale of our home, and has real estate expertise that she used to insure our home sale made it to completion.

First, I was impressed that Penny knew several aerial photographers. She contacted one who took awesome stills and video of our home. The photos were clear and made it easy for a potential buyer to want to come and tour our home.

Penny guided us through 4 different potential sales, each of which requlired working with a different realtor and buyer. The difficulties she dealt with include low ball offers, questions about the sale of furniture in our home, understanding that some buyers only make one offer and will not counter-offer, and price selection in order to generate market interest.

Penny understands at what price a home should be listed, and when to adjust the price in order to encourage showings. In fact, after changing the price upon her encouragement, we had 2 more showings.

One quality that sets Penny apart from all other realtors is her advocacy. From the beginning it is clear she represented us as homeowners and only us. When I explained frustrations about an offer, she listened patiently and offered understanding. She explained the components of the real estate contract, and she took action to advocate our position with the other side which ultimately resulted in a very good compromise on closing costs and home warranty costs. This is just one example out of many which shows Penny knows what buyers want, and works with the buyers' agent to achieve the best possible outcome for her clients.

Besides being accessible at all times, Penny used docusign to make the authentication of documents fast and easy.

There are many stresses associated with selling a home and moving. Penny's understanding of this process, her wise advocacy, and her pleasant nature have earned our highest recommendation.

Penny is not only a friend but has been my realtor on a few buying and selling of homes. She was so correct in what she advised me to pay attention to in readying our house for listing, as I was concerned over every little issue. She was right. Being as it had been a while since I sold my last house, she kept me updated on all the new processes and procedures. The home sold very quickly with multiple offers. She was able to decipher the legal terminology in the different contracts offered in order for us to choose the best one. It worked! Penny has been in the business for over 30 years, therefore knowing the best route to take when selling and buying!
