Worthington, Ohio Is Worthy Of Consideration, Say Realtors
by Blanche Evans
A suburb of Columbus, Ohio, the town of Worthington offers an idyllic lifestyle close to the city, say Realtors. "Worthington's best asset is the great community feel you get as you drive around town," suggests Realtor Karl Schneider. "It has an excellent location with easy access to all of central Ohio and features a top-notch school system. When you consider the high quality of life and its great location, communities like Worthington will always be desirable. Desirability in real estate means you can expect a strong increase in value, and when it is time to sell, your expected days on market should remain low." Say Realtors Gina Myers and Jill Fergus, "Worthington is a great community that offers a strong school system, lots of parks, recreational opportunities, and a historic downtown area dating from the 1700's. The community is within 20 minutes of most of the Columbus/Delaware metropolitan area, too!" About the market, Fergus and Myers predict, "2005 should be a great year in the Worthington market. In fact, lots of residents are choosing to take advantage of the appreciation in the community and are redoing or adding on to their existing homes rather than moving!" "Worthington has very well maintained mature neighborhoods close to major highways with easy access to the city," notes Realtor Vickie Owens. "Worthington, what a charming community! The average days on the market according to the Columbus MLS are only 50. If you find something there you like, better grab it fast! Average list price is $248,915, average selling price is $242,100. Due to the convenience to everything in the central Ohio area, and great schools, Worthington continues to be in high demand. Location, location, location! There are also many homes just on the border that boast Columbus taxes and Worthington Schools. Homeowners have done well with their appreciation. You can find everything from vintage to new in the area." |
