We, Rick & Donna Hamblen, are The Luxury Home Marketing Experts -- a very successful top-producing husband and wife residential real estate team with over 20 years of experience. We have extensive experience servicing the greater Cleveland/Akron areas (Cuyahoga, Summit, Lake, Geauga, & Medina Counties, & parts of Portage & Lorain Counties). Both of us have received the prestigious Certified Luxury Home Marketing Specialist designation from The Institute for Luxury Home Marketing -- the premier independent authority in training and certification for real estate agents working in the luxury residential market. We are also Million Dollar Guild Members for our documented performance in successfully selling single family homes priced at or above $1,000,000. In addition, we are Residential Remodeling Specialists, Residential Construction Certified, and Certified NEW Home Specialists. We help you determine what improvements you should make to sell your home for top dollar, or stay comfortable in your existing home, or make to a home you're buying. Thinking of building? We can help you choose a builder and a floor plan that works for you and your family. We specialize in servicing both sellers and buyers of Fine Homes & Luxury Estates ($350,000 and over) from lake-front properties to gated and golf course communities to new construction and equestrian properties, to properties with acreage, historic properties, and more. Your home or budget isn't $350,000 or more? No worries, we can help you too! We create customers for life by providing outstanding service (professional honest advice, ongoing communication & feedback, reliable reputable resources), market insight, successful contract negotiations, and an enjoyable real estate experience. Lastly, we are team leaders of a group of very successful Realtors who comprise My Diamond Group (Jeffrey Williams, Kimble True, & Lisa Blomgren). They service 1st time buyers and sellers, those looking to buy a fixer-upper as a primary residence or to flip, move-up buyers who want to sell a starter home and buy a larger one, and those looking to sell and downsize to a smaller home or condo. Jeffrey & Lisa are also members of the Institute for Luxury Home Marketing. Kimble heads up our residential remodeling group, Diversified Property Solutions. Prior to real estate, both Rick & Donna worked for ABB as global customer training managers and global communication managers. We traveled the globe extensively, negotiated multi-million dollar contracts, and much more. Rick is also a 10-year Navy veteran.
