Beauties like this log cabin home may be common in some parts of the country, but they're not so common in Greater Cincinnati!  After taking a break during the COVID shutdown, we brought this home back on the market in late May to find that JUST RIGHT buyer for this gorgeous log cabin home on almost 5 acres of HEAVILY wooded land.  And that JUST RIGHT buyer has been found and has a contract to purchase!  Inspections are scheduled and we're on track for a late August closing.   This log cabin home features a FULL wrap around porch/deck so pick shade or sun to enjoy while you're sitting outside!Inside, this home GLEAMS thanks to the hardwood floors and walls on the main two living floors, and new carpet in the finished lower level.Despite being built in 1995, almost everything you'd want ...

Looking for a different style of new construction low maintenance living in northern Cincinnati?  M/I Homes Lifestyle series of low maintenance homes in Daventry at Summit Park in Blue Ash are NOT like other low maintenance living homes in the area.M/I Homes low maintenance homes are similar to patio homes in that they're low maintenance in both building materials and the fact that the HOA mows the grass, takes care of the snow and does the basic landscaping.  But that's about where the similarity ends.The low maintenance homes in Daventry at Summit Park are similar to the low maintenance homes M/I Homes built in Mason's Alverta and to future homes in The Enclave at Carriage Hill in Liberty Township.  So the biggest differences?  Instead of ranch homes, expect two story homes AND rear l...

I'm typically not a huge fan of writing back-up offers because I consider the odds of moving into primary position a bit slim and it keeps my clients in suspense for an extended time.If I'm the seller's agent, I consider a back-up offer a great piece of leverage.  The buyer starts making too many demands and you can drop the "we've got a back-up offer" card.  The buyer either backs off, or quits entirely and my seller can go to the back-up offer, which is most likely as good or better than the initial offer.So if I'm the buyer's agent, I know that's happening.  And I also know the seller has very few options to move from the primary offer to the back-up offer.  Basically the buyer has to fail to perform in some way:  not provide the earnest money, not provide the preapproval letter, fai...

In search of low maintenance living on Cincinnati's West Side?  Patio homes are a bit scarcer to the west than they are north and east of Cincinnati, so Harrison's Villas of Westhaven may be just the answer to your home search!Ryan Homes is building approximately 40 patio homes in the Villas of Westhaven.  Located just north of the I74/Dry Fork Rd interchange, you can quickly head into downtown Cincinnati or head the opposite way and be in Indiana in moments.Ryan Homes has been increasing their Cincinnati area patio home offerings in the last few years, so you now have additional choices where to build a new construction patio home.  As far as the patio homes, Ryan Homes will be offering four floor plans (three ranch style and a two story option).  All will feature first floor master su...

The closer you get to downtown Cincinnati, the tougher it is to find detached condo living.  You can find condos downtown, but you're going to be part of a much bigger building and there will be no yard.So what if we told you there were detached condos in right outside Mariemont in Columbia Township?Welcome to Walnut Creek condos!What you have is one street of 32 detached condos.  What you can expect:Small yards2 car garages3-4 bathsA mix of ranch and two story homes with basementsBuilt in the late 80s to mid 90sNo amenities (no pool, etc.)HOA fees of approximately $400/monthThe HOA fees are high, but here's the good news.  These condos are a bit of a hybrid between patio homes and condos and are in the "landominium" category.  Basically the HOA takes care of the exterior of the home wi...

  If you're looking for low maintenance living in the Montgomery Ohio area and want to build new, you're in luck...Robert Lucke Homes that is!  Last fall they announced plans for The Villas of Montgomery, and they've been making good progress on this small community!  Robert Lucke Homes bought a group of older small ranch homes and cleared the property just  a bit south of Bethesda North Hospital to make way for 12 attached ranch condos (or villas depending on your naming preference!). 2 of the 12 have already been sold and the foundation poured on the first pair of villas. And as they've progressed, there have been a couple of nice surprises! First, there's enough slope for 3 of the units to have walkout basements!  Of those 3 lots, 1 has already been sold. Secondly, the Village of Mon...

While you'd like for no Cincinnati real estate purchase contracts to fall through, it does happen.  Fortunately the failure rate is rather low.And when a deal does fall through, one of the steps to releasing the deal is distributing the earnest money.The earnest money is essentially a deposit made at contract acceptance to show the seller the buyer is serious about the purchase and doesn't plan to abandon the deal.  However, the money does still belong to the buyer, and in most cases is applied as a credit when the sale is completed.The earnest money may be held by the broker on either side of the deal as specified by the contract.  In most cases if I'm repping the buyer I'm going to recommend our brokerage holds the funds.Why?  Just in case the deal does fail it is SLIGHTLY easier to r...

 We found our first flower blooms of the year so we know Spring is coming!  And with Spring there's an expected acceleration of the real estate market.  Fischer Homes is already seeing that pickup with a reduction in available move-in ready patio homes in Greater Cincinnati.  This time last month there were 7 available and that number has shrunk to 5.  Fischer Homes remains one of the largest builders of Cincinnati patio homes, with first floor plans maxing out at about 2000 sq ft and then more can be added with a finished lower level or loft area depending on the selected plan.   Move-in ready patio homes are typically ready in 90 days or less.  Since these patio homes were not designed to order, they'll be constructed to fit mainstream tastes and using Fischer's most popular floor pla...
