What do Clients Say?

I met Lori in 2003 doing a basic internet search for realtors in Columbus, Ohio (obviously her website SEO is phenomenal). We met and immediately I was comfortable and confident in her abilities to help find us a home. After a lengthy search, Lori guided us to a new home community that was off our radar - turns out the builder was one of the best in Columbus. Lori NEVER pressured us into buying a home, even though many times we spoke about opting out of our contract due to difficulties in locating that perfect home. She was very consistent and supportive of us and made sure we found that perfect home with that perfect builder. After several years in our home, we relocated and needed to sell - we hired Lori to then sell our home. Again she was very supportive with us, deciding pricing and helping us stage our home for viewings. During the beginning of the 2008 housing burst, our home sold within 8 months of being listed. We only dropped the price once and Lori was able to effectively market and get our home sold very close to asking price. I consider Lori a lifelong friend. She is loyal, caring, dedicated, passionate and very knowledgeable of the Columbus real estate market. If given the opportunity a third time, there'd be no doubt who I'd hire - Mrs."Selling Columbus", Lori Swearingen!

No matter your needs, Big or Small, Lori makes your wishes her go do. Couldn’t recommend her higher! Lori is a true Realty Professional. Highly recommend. Lori was able to sell our home in less than two weeks and was available at every beck and call.

Although we ended up building, and keeping our current home as a rental, Lori was there whenever we needed her & always made herself available. She makes you feel like her best friend & only client, and will go to bat for you whenever you need her to. Her knowledge & experience of the real estate & building industries certainly shows, & I would recommend her in a heartbeat! I hope she's still in the business if the time comes we need her again!

Our home sold very quickly for an excellent price. I attribute the great outcome to Lori's guidance to prepare our home for listing. Prior to working with Lori, we were unsure whether we should paint, replace carpet, remove clutter, etc. Her knowledge of the local real estate market and the process of selling a home is second to none!

Past Client Zillow Review

Lori and her team know the Columbus and surrounding areas very well! We sold a house in the small town of London and purchased a new build in Plain City. She knew what we needed to do on both ends and her attention to detail is superb! We felt like we were her only clients at the time! Lori goes the extra mile to make sure everyone is on the same page and that no detail is left to chance. I would recommend the Selling Columbus team (and already have) many times over!
