About Columbus Ohio 

Columbus is the capital of Ohio, home of the Ohio State University a great place to live and contrary to some opinions a great place to visit (ask the visitor and convention bureau if you don't believe me!) Columbus is a big city that doesn't feel big.  Columbus is a unique big city in that it is still growing.  There's lots of exciting redevelopment in downtown Columbus too.

The Columbus area in Central Ohio includes thriving suburbs as well including Worthington, Dublin, Westerville, Powell, Lewis Center, Hilliard, Minerva Park, Riverlea,  Gahanna, Upper Arlington, Grandview, New Albany and more. 

The neighborhoods of downtown Columbus are wonderful but not where I sell.   For me downtown is "a great place to visit..." and I mean no disrespect to those who live in Columbus urban neighborhoods. I love downtown Columbus for First Night, Red, White & Boom, the Columbus Arts Festival, Festival Latino... and more.

DiscoverColumbusOH.com  Columbus Ohio real estate, focusing on Franklin County north outerbelt communities including neighborhoods in Columbus,  Dublin, Gahanna,  Hilliard, New Albany,  Westerville and Worthington.   I also focus neighborhoods along the 315 corridor including Clintonville, northwest Columbus, Grandview Heights and Upper Arlington.

North of the county line this site includes Lewis Center and Powell.   Also those communities that straddle the Franklin Delaware County line, Dublin and Westerville.   Some posts may appear more than once.  Strangely my description of Discove Columbus Ohio - Columbus Ohio real estate does not mention any of the Delaware County communities but I have been posting on Delaware County real estate, right along.

ColumbusBestBlog.com  It's not just real estate.  It is all about the Best of Columbus.  It has nothing to do with the ActiveRain blogs except Columbus Ohio real estate and Worthington real estate display on the sidebar of this site.

About  HER Realtors

HER Realtors Real (known for about a decade as Real Living HER)  is the number one real estate company in the state of Ohio. Or was?  I think when the NE Ohio market changed from Real Living to another brand this may have changed too. HER Realtors is still #1 in Central Ohio... and the #1 is in the middle of the state. 

*1956 - Harley E. Rouda established HER

2002 - Harley E. Rouda Jr. established Real Living using the HER Realtors technology

2009 - Real Living franchise sold to Brookfield RPS the Columbus Ohio real estate company was known as Real Living HER

2012 and beyond - "Back to the Future" - HER Realtors is not a franchise. Dropping the Real Living from the name.  We were always HER Realtors, even while we were a Real Living franchise for about three years. Harley Rouda Jr. Prsident of Real Living returns to run HER Realtors in Columbus.

Ancient History in blog years

In August 2006 I was named one of the Top 10 Women Real Estate Bloggers by Sellsius Blog for my "other" blog Columbus Best Blog (later  known as Discover Columbus and now resting in retirement... the blog not ME)  I started the original Columbus Best Blog in August 2005.

One thing we are truly excited about is the growing trend of passionate female Broker/Agent bloggers that are making their mark as pioneers of real estate blogging. They all have one thing in common that makes them shine - the power of knowledge gained through hands on experience."
