Stephen Dial was soooo GREAT to work with. His calm demeanor, dedication to details and professional, but personal approach made me very glad that I chose him to handle the sale of my existing home, as well as help me navigate through the process of building of a new home. Thanks Stephen!!!
Stephen is the absolute best in the biz. He just assisted me with selling the house he also helped me buy 7 years ago. It went so smoothly. I knew I would not have to worry about a thing. Thank you, Stephen for being attentive, thorough, communicative and supportive. If I ever buy a house in the area again, you will be my first and only stop!
My wife and I loved our 12 years living in the Short North. When it came time to sell we interviewed 3 realtors. We chose Stephen Dial of Meyers’s and Dial. IF YOU ARE SELLING A PROPERTY IN ITALIAN VILLAGE, VICTORIAN VILLAGE, HARRISON WEST, or CLINTONVILLE and YOU DON’T CALL STEPHEN YOU WILL COST YOUR SELF SIGNIFICANT MONEY AND TIME. Two of the realtors we interviewed told us an asking price within $10000 of each other. Stephen suggested we list the house for $90000 more and we realized $60000 more at closing. Our house had a deal pending in 20 days and closed 20 days after that. Our house did not go on the market at prime time in spring but at end of July. Plus interest rates were up to 7%. Not perfect timing. Stephen is the consummate professional who handles every detail. He is also fun to work with. I never texted, emailed or called Stephen that I didn’t have a response within 5 minutes. We have owned 12 different properties in Ohio and Florida and dealt with many realtors. Stephen Dial is the BEST.
Stephen is an outstanding agent. He is relentless in pursuing every task to its completion. I have had 2 great buying and selling experiences with him. I highly recommend him!
For the second time now, Stephen was fantastic! Very nice, polite, personable, responsive, and professional! He always went above and beyond to make sure everything was being taken care of as fast as possible - even when he did not really have to! Having used him for a second time now, we would not have used him again if we had not liked our first experience with him! We definitely recommend him to anyone looking to buy in the Columbus area!
We were a bit nervous as buyers, as we were 2,500 miles away in California trying to negotiate the purchase of a home, but Stephen eased our minds a great deal. He provided excellent service, and did a great job serving as our proxies while we went through the tasks associated with buying a home. He also provided good insight on and advice about, the neighborhood we chose. We recommend Stephen highly.
Stephen is an exceptional realtor! Stephen made our first time home buying experience a breeze. We did not know anything about the home buying process and he made sure to answer every single one of my questions thoroughly. When it came time to start looking at houses he made us feel like he stopped everything around him to make sure we got to see a house. With our crazy schedules this really meant a lot, we never missed out on a seeing a house and we were lucky enough to put in only one offer on a home and we got it!! Stephen knows so much about the Columbus Market it really puts you at ease knowing you are in such great hands. I can't thank you enough for making this such an easy and fun experience!
Stephen exceeded expectations. Not only is he just a great guy, he knows everything about the Columbus market, is quick (sometimes shockingly quick) to reply or follow up on something, and we felt like we could trust him to guide us through the homebuying process. As first time homebuyers, we are extremely lucky we found him. Stephen will be selling and buying every property of ours from now on.
Stephen Dial is the penultimate professional. Not only is he extremely knowledgeable about his craft, he is also a really nice guy. This personality trait is very disarming because as a realtor, he must deal with all types of people who often have different agendas and timetables. Bobby Fisher, the world chess champion of yesteryear, once said that to be successful in chess, one must think 100 moves ahead. Fortunately for his clients, Stephen is that type of person. He knows the next steps and understands how to accomplish them. He is creative, marketing-oriented and results driven. Negotiation is a necessary characteristic for a realtor. I witnessed Stephen successfully using various negotiation techniques, (even on me!) to achieve his goals. My house sold in 6 days and closed in 31 days with excellent terms and conditions. Great job Stephen!!
Fantastic experience buying a home in Victorian Village with Stephen! He was professional, knowledgeable, and always quick to respond. We appreciated him helping make the process as smooth as possible. He was a pleasure to work with and we would sell or buy with him again. Highly recommend!
Stephen was extremely helpful from the moment I first contacted him. As someone who was buying their first home, his knowledgeable advice was perfectly suitable to my needs. I always felt like my questions were welcomed and my concerns were heard. He is one of the most organized, responsive, and prompt people I have ever worked with, while also being very easygoing and friendly. He goes above and beyond for his clients, and his phenomenal experience and people skills get results. When it comes time to sell my home I'll definitely contact him again. I would recommend him to anyone looking for a home in Columbus who wants a smooth and successful buying experience.
We had a wonderful experience with Stephen during our search for a house in Columbus. He was professional, thorough, and knowledgeable with every showing. With his help, we bought a beautiful home fulfilling all of our needs.
