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!
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!
We can't say enough good things about working with Jim. He was fantastic! We were first time homebuyers and he spent time so much time educating us on the process and answering all of our questions. Jim is DEEPLY knowledgable about the Short North/Victorian Village/Italian Village/German Village areas and very well connected to real estate professionals in the area, which was very helpful to us. When looking at potential homes, he was well educated in the comps in the area and the quality of the house (i.e. material used in renovations, etc.) We would highly recommend Jim to friends, family and plan to use him again in the future!
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.
In two words, what distinguishes Jim Meyer from other realtors "customer service." Jim places a high value in ensuring that his clients truly have a good experience searching for new home, which can be daunting! Jim is incredibly knowledgeable about the Columbus and surrounding area and I found his insights to be invaluable. Jim truly understands the importance of relationships, which in this market, can help make a deal come together. I highly recommend Jim Meyer for your next home purchase or sale. M. Tillman
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!
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.
Best real estate agent I have ever used! Stephen listened and took time to understand my key things for purchasing a house. He made the complete experience easy and helpful in all aspects of the process! I would definitely recommend Stephen.
There are industry leaders that never cease to amaze with their level of professionalism, accomplishment and client dedication. Their hard work and service quality creates a reputation that many depend on and set the standard that others seek to achieve. With his reputation of excellence, James Meyer of Meyer&Dial falls into this category. I have known James for over 20 years and consistently have tapped him to handle the sale of several of my homes and have depended on his expertise to find one perfect home after another. James, you represent the best and both my husband and I want to thank you for being such a trusted friend and adviser. If we decide to move back to Columbus, you will be the first person I call for the journey back. Vasilios and Joel
Jim was a 5-Star agent in all parts of the sales process from property assessment, putting on-market, negotiation, and closing. He certainly knows the Short North market inside and out and I couldn't have been happier with the process. I highly recommend Jim Meyer.
