Client Testimonials
Over three decades of helping clients buy and sell homes throughout Columbus and the surrounding communities, we’ve been fortunate to build lasting relationships and receive thoughtful feedback from many of the people we’ve served.
Their experiences often provide the clearest insight into what it’s like to work with our team.
"I truly could not give Tiffany Panhuis a higher recommendation! I have now worked with her to purchase two homes and to sell one. Her response time is always incredibly fast, and she is an excellent communicator. Tiffany also connects you to top-notch professionals (whether it’s a phenomenal inspector or a wonderful home stager). With respect to selling, I worked with Tiffany during COVID, and she helped ensure that I felt safe throughout it all. The house had four offers almost immediately such that the entire process could move quickly and smoothly, and Tiffany helped coordinate everything remotely per my request. With respect to buying, Tiffany truly cares about helping you find the home that you want. She has an amazing eye and will give you as much (or as little) advice as you want, and she also consistently goes above and beyond, from FaceTime walkthroughs to answering questions. There is truly no one I trust more when it comes to buying or selling a home."

"Tiffany was an amazing realtor to work with during our relocation process. We were moving from Cincinnati to the greater Columbus area. She's an excellent communicator and is very responsive. Tiffany complied a great list of houses to view, showcasing her understanding of our needs as well as her knowledge of the areas we were interested in. In a single weekend, we found the perfect house for us in Blacklick. Throughout the contingency period and on to closing, Tiffany was on top of every detail to ensure we'd have a smooth and successful transition. And we did! She made our relocation process a breeze and for that we're very grateful. I would absolutely recommend Tiffany Panhuis to anyone looking for a realtor."

"It was a pleasure and fun working with Pat in helping me through the Home buying experience. Being a first time home buyer and not being knowledgeable in the process, Pat was there in every way, answering all my questions and concerns. He was very punctual in getting back to me mostly through emails- my preference. We were in pinch in Closing on schedule and Pat worked diligently with my lender and title agency and communicated every little detail to me. Even though we didn't close on time (not Pat's fault) he made sure everything was done correctly. He was very friendly and had a very positive and profession attitude from our first meeting through my closing. Pat also was there even after closing to assist and answer my questions. Now I can enjoy my new home, Thanks to Pat Belcher!"

"When we decided to sell our home and buy another, we logged on to Angie's List and checked out the reviews on their list of realtors. We contacted Tiffany Panhuis at Coldwell Banker King Thompson after exploring her website and watching her introductory presentation video. She was a top rated realtor on Angie’s List and we can now attest to that. We had decided on short notice and late in the season to sell and Tiffany had our house on the market immediately. She had great suggestions for staging and presentation and it was in contract shortly after. On our hunt for a new home, we were very specific about the area, property layout and room orientation and Tiffany sent us many homes to look at that met our criteria. She was very professional in all aspects of handling our home sale/house hunt and truly interested in our likes and dislikes. She was quick to respond to our emails, phone calls and texts and, when during our search we changed our home criteria about 4 times, she immediately had more homes with our new likes to sift through. When we finally found the house of our dreams, her knowledge and experience of the real estate market and current housing price trends were invaluable during the negotiation process. She had great recommendations for inspectors and contractors when issues arose with both homes to make our part in these real estate transactions nearly effortless. Having been through the home selling and hunting process before with other realtors, we were not looking forward to what we were sure would be a drawn out and exhausting search in a market the size of Columbus that was at the same time experiencing a low inventory. Tiffany made our necessary effort and footwork minimal and our experience working with her was fantastic! We whole heartedly recommend Tiffany and her team to anyone looking to find a home here!"

"Over the past six months, Tiffany has represented my husband and I (newlyweds!) in the sale of each of our homes and the purchase of our condo in a positively dreamy Old Worthington location. Each transaction brought its own unique challenges (as they always do, I'm sure), and throughout the process, Tiffany guided us with confidence and always-spot-on advice. Tiffany's depth and breadth of knowledge is astonishing. She seems to have navigated every possible real estate scenario during her years of experience, so nothing throws her off-balance and she has an uncanny way of identifying how situations will play out. It is a real pleasure to work with Panhuis Belcher Huber. They made everything as convenient as possible for us and really run a client-centered real estate practice. (Tiffany is outlandishly responsive too, btw.) We recommend them wholeheartedly."
- Christy F.
"After having several realtors that caused me endless frustration I had almost given up on house buying...until I met Pat! I won't be able to describe all the awesome things pat does/did so I'll list the things I appreciated most:
- Replies to emails instantly! I don't think I ever even waited 15 minutes for a reply
- Showed me houses as soon as I wanted to see them. Houses were going like hotcakes in the neighborhood I was interested in and Pat would have me out within a few hours if I wanted to go.
- Did things that weren't his 'job.' When I couldn't get my A/C to work the day I closed, he drove out to my house and called his contacts to figure out what was wrong.
- He's extremely patient! Never acts like you're bothering him!
- He's NOT PUSHY! Oy, I cringe at the thought of my other realtors.
- He's super nice and trustworthy.
Go with Pat, you won't be disappointed!"
- Bridget D.
"Tiffany was an excellent realtor. After a couple of years of searching for a new home with other realtors, we went to Tiffany on a friend's recommendation and were moving into a house we love in less than a couple of months. She walked us through the process, was very hands-on and instructive and saved us some money along the way by advising us during negotiations."
- MaryCeleste D.
"As we were moving from Wisconsin, we arranged to spend a week in Columbus to do a focused housing search with Tiffany. She got quite sick right before we were coming to town, but Pat stepped right in and cleared some significant chunks of time to show us around and make sure we got to take advantage of our brief time in the area.
Throughout our time working with Pat, we've felt like we were his highest priority. Not only while we were looking at houses, but as we made an offer, went through inspections, etc. Since we were remote, we couldn't be present for much of the action, but Pat handled scheduling inspections and work, being present to supervise, etc. He was great about sending us texts to keep us updated.
It's been a week since we moved in, and Pat continues to be a major point of contact for us. He's been proactive in helping us get set up with contractors and helping us deal with our home warranty company.
Pat's responsiveness has far exceeded my expectations. He responds to inquiries by email, phone, and text usually within minutes."
- Jeffrey K.
"We chose to move from Ohio to Oregon, and needed someone to act as our representative in selling our home. Tiffany was outstanding. She worked to keep us informed of all the details, and she made the process of selling our home from across the country as easy as if we were just across town. When some last-minute work needed done to the buyer's specifications, she had a handle on it, called, and the work was done. I cannot emphasize enough how hard she worked for us, the seller.
SHE IS AWESOME, AND I WOULD TRUST HER AGAIN TO SELL OUR HOME (if she came to Oregon, that is)!"
- Stephanie M.
"Tiffany worked with us to buy a home in Hilliard. She did a fantastic job of keeping us updated as homes went on the market that matched our needs, then walking with us through each step of negotiating and closing, even through a chaotic closing process. This is the second time I've worked with Tiffany (first time was selling a home four years ago), and both times she has been on top of follow-ups and stayed in constant contact at all times of the day. Great experience!"
- Beth G.
"We decided to hire Pat to help us sell our house in Hilliard, Ohio. We moved to California for my husband's job at the beginning of the year, so we were out of state for the entire selling process. I found Pat on Angie's List and once I reached out to him he responded promptly and professionally. I was worried about handling the selling process when we were not in town, but Pat reassured me he had worked with other clients who lived out of state and it would all be very easy. And he was right! Pat communicated with my husband and I through phone calls, emails and we even used Skype to officially and quot;meetand quot; one day. This was the first time either of us had sold a home and whenever I had a question I asked Pat and he responded immediately.
Luckily, my father lives in town so we were able to have him give Pat a key to the house and show him the property. Right off the bat Pat recommended we do some things to prepare the house for the market. We had a foundation issue in the basement repaired, had the house professionally cleaned and landscaped, painted the entire interior and replaced all the carpet. At first I was a little hesitant to put money into the house, but Pat was right and it paid off in the end. Pat worked to get us quotes, meet the contractors and set up the repairs. This was extremely useful since we were out of town and took some of the burden off my father. His contractors were reasonably priced and did amazing work. When we were finally finished with the repairs, Pat used comps in the neighborhood to pick a price. We trusted his expertise and agreed on the price he suggested. It was right on! Finally the house went on the market and Pat's company had us in contract for the full asking TWO DAYS after we put it on the market! We were amazed with the quick turnaround, but when I had a chance to visit Hilliard for a weekend and saw the house after the repairs it looked brand new. The carpet, painting and landscaping made a huge difference and in my opinion sold the house for us. We made back the money we invested and made a profit. The closing was ideal, Pat sent us the paperwork via FedEx, we signed it and sent it back and it was done. It couldn't have gone smoother. I can't say enough about Pat and his entire team and the great job they did selling our home. At one point Pat was out of town and his associate worked with us and was just as responsive and professional during the process. I would definitely Pat and his team to help you sell your house and I know we would use him again if we ever purchased in the area."

"We bought a home using Pat Belcher as our agent. He did a great job through every step: Home search: We received an email from Pat about most listings of interest to us the day they were listed. He included pocket listings and rumors of upcoming properties way ahead of time we wouldn't have known about otherwise. Houses were going fast and he got us in quickly. He was knowledgeable and pointed out some potential flaws/issues. Not once did we feel pressured; he was extremely patient. On the one occasion that he was unavailable, Tiffany Panhuis seamlessly stepped in and was equally as great to work with.
Offer, inspection, and negotiation: It was a difficult transaction with many curveballs thrown by the seller. Pat advised us to flat out deny some of their demands even at the risk of the sale. He urged us to investigate each scenario until we felt comfortable with the purchase. We did our own research on the inspection consultants he recommended and they were reputable, skilled, and honest so we used them. Closing: Pat was always in close contact as closing drew near. He closely worked with our lenders and provided them some documents before we even knew they were requested. As a result the closing went without a hitch. He even offered help coordinating some post-closing repairs. I would highly recommend Pat. You can't go wrong with him."
- Karen J.
"I cannot say enough nice things about her. I have never sold a property before and she walked me through the whole process clearly and explained any of the terms that I did not understand. She had my back as far as telling me about things that I didn’t have any idea about so that she didn’t let me get blindsided by anything. She showed the house to four people at one time and one of the people put a bid in on the house and that is who I ended up selling it to. It was a very painless experience and in addition to that, I had already moved to the Sandusky area by the time we closed on the house and she took care of getting the title company involved and making sure that any of the warranty information was taken care of without any problems. She handled the phone calls for me expect the very few that I had to give my permissions for. She is a terrific lady and obviously I was very successful with it, I got the price I wanted so can’t say enough good things about her. The house was sold for $102000 and she had about four percent of that. They are very trustworthy. Their communication is above exceptional, it is just terrific. Even when she had taken a couple of days off, she made sure that I got a phone call back from somebody on a question I had. She is very knowledgeable and a good person to have on your side."

"We were moving out of state and wanted to sell our place. We had considered renting especially because we had lots of friends in our neighborhood who were also selling - I mean had their home up for sell, but after MONTHS they weren't selling and didn't have any offers. I got info from them on their listing agent - who had lots of our friends homes listed. They were happy with her, just not happy that they weren't selling. I gave the agent a call., luckily she didn't answer right away. I thought about it and decided that maybe I should try someone else. We wanted to sell our house...not just list it. So I got on Angies list and found Tiffany.
She came out and saw our place, made some suggestions, gave us information on comparables, and suggested a price. We were impressed with what she had to offer and since I had all ready done some homework we signed with her.
She was available to open our house to the home stager and repair man. She often did a lot of the contacting for us. Which was wonderful. Its hard to be a middle man. The pictures that were taken were super high quality. We searched for our house online to see how it looked at different websites. It was awesome and in almost all cases was a featured home.
We moved out of our place, put it on the market and we were able to get into contract 2 weeks within listing our house. We had multiple offers and she helped us get the best price for our house....FULL PRICE! We moved out of state and we were able to get a hold of her when we needed to. Our house (condo) was listed with 20+ others that were all similar and weren't selling. We are so happy that we went with Tiffany. I can't say enough good."
- Joni W.
"We met Tiffany after reviewing local Realtors on Angie's List. Her all A reviews is certainly well-deserved. After about two months of updating the house (based on her recommendations), we sold our house for full listing price within 36 hours of it posting. In addition, after the inspection we got about 2 pages worth of remedies. Due to her negotiating skills, we did not fix a single thing (or pay additional closing costs). She was excellent.
When we decided to buy a new house in the area, we were disappointed w/ the lack of inventory in our desired neighborhoods. She patiently took us on dozens of home tours, before we found the perfect house. Again, she helped negiotate a good price and after the inspection we came back w/ 5 hard remedies. She made sure that every single one was updated by the seller. What a smooth process. We have no reservations about our home-buying/selling process thanks to Tiffany and her team. If you are looking for a local Realtor, you will be hard-pressed to find one better than Tiffany."
- Mitch S.
"Tiffany is very professional and approachable. She gave helpful advice on selling and purchasing a home. She responses to questions within the hour. Very flexible with her schedule. Provided me with frequent lists of homes in the areas I was interested. With the house I purchased she helped coordinate estimates to give to the seller for work that needed to be done on the house. She is patient and was concerned about making sure I purchased the house I would be most happy living in. I would highly recommend working with her."
- Julie M.
"Tiffany has been a pleasure to work with from the start. This is our first home buying experience, and we had lots of questions and uncertainties. She has been helpful and patient, taking us to see anything we want, giving us plenty of space to make decisions, and bearing with us when we decided against one purchase and later entered a short sale contract. If we ever need to sell this house, she will be the first person we call."
- Ren H.
"AMAZING. Tiffany is absolutely fantastic to work with. She's courteous, professional, knowledgeable, friendly, and trustworthy. We were utter novices when it came to home buying (and now home selling) and she walked us through every step of the process, always taking time for any questions or concerns we might have. She was flexible with her schedule to meet our needs and never showed up to an appointment in a upbeat and ready to roll. What's even better is that she kept what we wanted first and foremost in her mind. If a house wasn't the right fit for us, she'd tell us or tell us we could do better. She didn't hesitate when asked for her opinion on something and continually offered us valuable insight on homes and any potential problems or issues she could see with particular houses. Tiffany was always honest and straightforward about anything we asked her, and if she didn't know an answer immediately, she got back to us with the information as soon as she could. Once we found the house we wanted to buy, she walked us through every step of the process, from coming up with an appropriate bid to contract negotiations to closing. And her attention and service didn't stop after we moved in, either. Any time we've had a question or needed a house repair, she's helped us find service providers and answers. What's even more is that due to a job change, my husband and I will be relocating out of Columbus in the very near future. We fretted about trying to sell our house in the current real estate market, and once again turned to Tiffany for guidance and insight. She helped us prioritize our to-do list, decide how to stage, and walked us through every step we'll need to go through from listing photos to the eventual closing. She's been an invaluable, knowledgeable resource and service provider and I can't recommend her highly enough. To put it simply, she's phenomenal and, if you're looking to buy or sell a home, you can't ask for a better person to have on your side and working with you to make it happen."
- Cassie C.
"While she did not sell the property, we did feel she represented us in a professional manner. With the current real estate market, the condo market is quite dismal We have pulled the condo off the market and have rented it. When we see an improved market we will re-list with this agent."
- Kathleen M.
"Tiffany is extremely personable, professional, and honest - and she delivers fantastic results. As first time home buyers, we found her expertise, honesty, and willingness to listen to our preferences/dislikes invaluable. She was incredibly helpful every step of the way and we felt perfectly at ease with everything we worked through together. What was most impressive was her ability to listen and take into account what we were looking for. There was no pressure, no rush to make a decision - she gave us space and guided us honestly through each house and each decision. If she thought a house wasn't a fit for us, she let us know. And if she thought something was great, she let us know that too. In short - she was fantastic in all aspects - professional, knowledgeable, personable, and honest. My husband and I highly recommend her to anyone looking to buy or sell a house in Columbus!"
- Terry C.
"Tiffany was, in a word, INCREDIBLE. She is extremely professional, personable, and hard-working. As first time home buyers, we found her expertise, honesty, and willingness to listen to our preferences/dislikes immensely helpful. She was extremely accomodating every step of the way and we felt perfectly at ease with everything we worked through together. What was most impressive was her ability to listen and take into account what we were looking for. There was no pressure, no rush to make a decision - she gave us space and guided us honestly through each house and every decision. If she thought a house wasn't a fit for us, she let us know. And if she thought something was great, she let us know that too. In short - she was fantastic in all aspects - professional, knowledgeable, personable, and honest. Her guidance and insight through everything was spot-on and we quickly learned that we could rely on her knowledge of the market, of the homes, and of the other realtors when it came to making a final decision. When we finally made an offer on a house, she talked us through every aspect of the contract, the negotiations, and then helped us to set up the closing without a hitch. She answered all of our questions - and if she didn't know the answer, she got back to us as soon as she could with one. As first time home buyers, I cannot emphasize enough how important it was to us that we had someone like Tiffany to help us through everything. My husband and I highly recommend her to anyone looking to buy (or sell!) a house in Columbus!"
- C. Barnes
"Tiffany is an awesome realtor! She helped us with both selling and buying - a scary process that she helped step us through. She is super-responsive and has lots of great ideas and insights about the market and the houses we looked at. Great experience working with her."
- Beth
"Tiffany is an outstanding realtor! She was highly recommended by multiple family members and was amazing to work with. Her knowledge and experience was evident from our first meeting and she made every step of the home-buying process seamless. Her responsiveness, organization, and professionalism are exceptional. She also had wonderful recommendations for lenders, inspectors, contractors, etc. We are so grateful to Tiffany for her guidance and helping us find our perfect home. She exceeded our expectations and we highly recommend her to anyone looking for a home!"
- Tom A.
"Pat Belcher exceeded my expectations in every regard. With only three weeks to relocate from Cleveland to Columbus for work, I was in need of a good realtor who could act quickly. Pat agreed to show me houses on a day’s notice, and on a holiday weekend when other realtors refused. In this seller’s market, competition was fierce with many homes selling well over the asking price. I decided to rent for a year and get to know the area better. When I resumed the house hunt several months later, I contacted Pat. He made me aware of new listings immediately. He responded to texts and emails immediately. His experience and expertise were invaluable as I faced all of the unbelievable things that occur in a seller’s market. Even when several offers had been rejected and all hope seemed lost, he remained positive and determined to find the right house. Once an offer was finally accepted and I went into contract, he was there, every step of the way. Even after the sale closed, he followed up to make sure the move went well. If you are looking for a truly good realtor, I highly recommend Pat Belcher."
- Stacey O.
"This was the second time we used Tiffany to sell our house (first time was in Columbus and this time in Powell) and she was as wonderful this time as she was the first. She is timely, insightful and sincere. Her reputation is extremely well-deserved!!
- Mitch S.
"As first time home buyers, we are so beyond grateful that we had Tiffany to guide us through the overwhelming process. She is thoughtful, knowledgeable, and very helpful. Tiffany always responded quickly, was able to show us new listings with very short notice, and provided much needed advice and expertise. Best of all, Tiffany treated us like friends and we felt she had our backs through the whole home buying process. We would very much recommend Tiffany to anyone looking to buy or sell a home."
- Sara B.
"I would highly recommend Tiffany to anyone looking for a realtor. I have worked with her to purchase 2 homes (one in Clintonville and one in Dublin) now and both experiences have been wonderful. Tiffany has extensive knowledge of the local market and helped us find our dream home! "She provides the information needed for us to feel comfortable knowing whether or not we'd be making a good investment. I really trust her opinion and judgement. I also appreciate the connections she has to other service people in the industry - she has given us recommendations for a lender, an electrician, and a plumber and they have all been stellar!! She's worked with other members of my family over the years"
- Rachael M.
"Tiffany has helped us now with several home purchases and has never failed to impress us with her helpfulness and expertise. Our recent purchase and sale were so smoothly managed despite us taking a two-week vacation in the middle of buying and selling! She made our former house look so appealing that we had 8 showings on the first day, multiple offers and three offers that were 25K over asking. Her understanding of the market was beneficial to us and she continued to answer questions weeks after we closed. She is wonderful to work with, friendly and has a great personality, and she loves dogs!"
- Kim J.
"Tiffany is a truly AMAZING Realtor and we were so fortunate to meet her when we did! My sister had used her for several transactions and mentioned to her that we were thinking about buying a condo, but with very specific location in mind. We had done nothing at this point except toss around the idea of buying a condo. Tiffany sent my sister a listing, my sister forwarded to me, and we went to see it the next day. We had no financing in place, it was a nonconforming complex which makes things trickier and we were completely unprepared to make an offer. The condo suited our needs perfectly though, so we immediately started working on putting pieces together. With Tiffany’s guidance and expertise, we were able to pull it all together in record time! She is outstanding at her job and we would absolutely recommend her to all our friends!"
- Kate W.
"We were in the tricky situation of having to move out of state during the Covid-19 pandemic. Tiffany was FANTASTIC during the entire process of selling our home (in Clintonville) during this very strange and difficult period. She helped us figure out a timeline that would work for us on our schedule, while giving potential buyers very clear instructions to help minimize the spread of germs. We were able to secure an offer after only one day on the market, and Tiffany additionally coordinated an online closing so we didn't have to meet anyone face-to-face. Although I wouldn't wish the overall experience of moving during the pandemic on anyone, Tiffany was a total pro. I cannot recommend her and her expertise more highly. (We also bought with Tiffany three years ago--a great experience too!)"
