Stephen Dial

Stephen provided unmatched service. We initially found a house that was perfect for us, but due to a change of heart by the seller, we were back to looking for the right fit. Stephen was an invaluable resource in providing input on houses, neighborhoods/areas, risks and opportunities, and overall simplified the process for us (in a very complex search). We highly recommend Stephen for a very thorough, accurate, and seamless experience.

I'm so thankful that we were matched with Stephen Dial for the search of our new home. We were a corporate relocation with no knowledge of Columbus or the market. Stephen educated us and helped us discern appropriate homes and areas based on our wish list. He was patient in finding the right property and is super stellar at securing the contract amidst a very competitive market. He's the BEST realtor I've ever worked with. He's very strategic AND can get the details executed flawlessly. I highly recommend him!

This was our second purchase experience with Stephen. Our first was a beautiful condo in Upper Arlington a few years ago, where our son lives. The second was a current new build patio home for us in Hilliard. We moved here from out of town, and appreciated his expertise in finding out information on the areas we were interested in. He attended all of the sales/design selection meetings and his assistance was very helpful in putting together a home that fit our vision, needs and price point. Stephen is a very detailed individual who can help keep you on track and make sure the fine points are addressed. We highly recommend using Stephen as your realtor. It's very obvious that he enjoys his profession!

We couldn't recommend Stephen enough! He stuck with us for months through several hurdles and never stopped being supportive, patient, and helpful. He truly went above and beyond and fought for our dream home every step of the way. He was kind, knowledgeable, and always had our best interests in mind. We are so grateful for everything he did for us and would highly recommend Stephen to anyone looking to buy a home!

Stephen has been our agent for a couple transactions, and he has consistently exceeded expectations. He is very professional and very attentive to his clients always looking out for their best interest. His thoroughness ensures that you get the best outcome. We would highly recommend him.

While buying my first home, I was not represented by a buyer's agent. Stephen was the seller's agent, but he was so kind, helpful, and patient with me throughout the whole purchase process. Any questions I had, he was quick to respond. When the sale went through, I felt genuinely supported and that he was happy for me. If/when I go to sell my property, Stephen will be my first phone call!

Stephen is a terrific real estate agent! He is very professional, knows the market, has a contact for everything we needed done before the sale, and he is easy to talk to and fun to work with. Communication is key, and Stephen was in contact with us throughout the home selling process, letting us know what to expect each step of the way. He always responded to every query, big or small, in a timely manner, and we felt we had a great advocate on our side. Stephen's market knowledge helped us to realize what our property was worth, and he detailed all the pros and cons, so we knew exactly what to expect. Our expectations were exceeded at every turn. In our previous experience, agents would visit the property once, but Stephen stopped by a number of times before we listed and during the listing just to make sure everything was in order. He even volunteered to meet carpet cleaners etc. when we were out of town. The brochures of our property and the online video advertising were beautiful. During the bidding and contract process, Stephen helped us by going over every detail, so that we understood all of our offers and could make an informed decision. Stephen's 25+ years in real estate were evident in every interaction - he is a true professional and the best real estate agent we have ever worked with!

Working with Stephan to buy our new home was an absolute pleasure from start to finish! He brought the perfect blend of professionalism, expertise and care that made the entire process smooth and virtually stress free. He took the time to understand exactly what we were looking for, priorities and concerns. He was proactive and responsive and addressed concerns we didn't even realize we had. His guidance was thoughtful, informed and tailored to our needs and wants.
Thanks to Stephen we now have the home we absolutely love, in the neighborhood we have been taking to him about for years. It's exactly what we want and will make it ours thanks to Stephan's help! We truly couldn't have asked for a better partner throughout our home-buying journey, never mind the fact that he is absolutely hilarious and a blast to work with! Thank you Stephen for making our Berwick dream come true!

Stephen was AMAZINGLY helpful and knowledgeable in helping my daughter purchase her first home. I will definitely secure his services when I am ready to sell my own home. I have worked with several agents in past transactions, and none hold a candle to Stephen.

Working with Stephen was an amazing experience from start to finish. He guided me through every step of the home buying process making sure I have all the available information to make a decision about a property. Always available to answer my questions, he consistently went above and beyond to ensure everything went smoothly. I truly feel fortunate to have found the best real estate agent in Columbus.

Stephen Dial is hands-down the most knowledgeable and client-focused agent in the Columbus market. I was first referred to Stephen four years ago when I was moving to Columbus, and he represented me as a buyer. That experience set a high bar -- so when it came time to sell the home he helped me purchase, I naturally turned to him again. Stephen not only met my high expectations the second time around-- he far exceeded them. He timed the market perfectly, generating 34 showings in just 36 hours, and brought in multiple offers well over asking price. His strategic planning, marketing approach, and understanding of buyer behavior were spot-on. Beyond the results, Stephen is incredibly organized, detail-oriented, and proactive throughout the entire process. His professionalism and steady communication made everything smooth and stress-free. He is also just an enjoyable person to work with who genuinely cares about you as his client. I can't recommend him highly enough.

Stephen is a fantastic realtor and such a pleasure to work with. He is so knowledgeable about real estate and the entire process, super responsive, and kept us informed every step of the way. We wouldn't hesitate for a second to work with Stephen again, and would recommend him wholeheartedly to family and friends.

Working with Stephen Dial was a completely different experience from our previous attempt to sell our home. From the start, he was communicative, sharp, and brought a great sense of humor that made the process feel less stressful and more human. He was always easy to reach, explained everything clearly, and never treated our questions like burden - even when we felt a little lost. Stephen's savvy and confidence helped us navigate the market successfully, and we always felt like we had someone in our corner who genuinely cared. We can't recommend him enough to anyone buying or selling in the Columbus area.

Stephen was nothing short of exceptional! He helped us buy our second home on a tight timeline and easily accommodated our schedule from offer to closing. From the start, his communication was frequent and consistent. We never had to ask for updates because he anticipated our needs and even thought of things we hadn't considered. We have two young kids who came along for showings, and Stephen made them feel involved by printing out listing packets just for them. He also gave us honest, unbiased input on every home we toured, which we really appreciated. When we found the home we loved, he immediately connected with the listing agent and truly went to bat for our offer. Stephen is extremely well-connected and worked seamlessly with our lender and title agency, helping us close remotely (a huge plus since we were moving from out of state to Ohio). Stephen is a phenomenal agent, and we can't recommend him enough. If you're looking for a real estate agent, stop your search-- Stephen will go above and beyond for you!

I am not exaggerating when I tell you I would not be in my dream home if not for Stephen Dial. Above and beyond does not even begin to describe Stephen's level of commitment and dedication to his clients. He's extremely personable and gets to know you on a personal level before beginning a house search. I began searching for a house at the end of January and closed on my dream home by the beginning of March... THAT'S HOW GOOD HE IS!! Having Stephen as your agent makes you feel extremely secure. Each home walk-through I had he used his experience to point out issues and or benefits to the houses that he noticed which made home viewing a lot easier as well as gave you a sense of confidence knowing if you missed something, Stephen would be there to catch it. He was very attentive and always super quick to reply to any questions or concerns and made sure you 100% understood what he was explaining. He was EXTREMELY efficient with paperwork and he made sure you understood what you were signing before you signed it which is super important. Stephen stepped out of his comfort zone in a county he does not typically show houses in, went to bat for me, and somehow STILL got me an amazing deal on a house which would not have been accomplished without his hard work, the research that he did, and his experience. To say that I'm satisfied would be an understatement. I trult believe if I hired anybody else, I would not be in my dream home right now and would more than likely still be searching for a home. There's nobody I trust more when it comes to purchasing a home. I'm forever grateful for Stephen and anybody I come across in search of a home is being QUICKLY forwarded to Stephen.
