Working with Joe Speakman as our REALTOR® was the best decision we could have made while selling our house! We knew he specialized in our neighborhood, knowing all the local knowledge and even prospective buyers. With Joe’s expertise and connections, we were able to get our house in a contract within 5 days of contacting him and not even putting it on the market! Additionally, Joe assuaged all my concerns about selling a house during Covid-19. We communicated virtually for the majority of our contacts and socially distanced from others. When arranging walk-throughs and viewings for the buyer, he explained how we could leave all inside doors open and...

We met Joe at one of his listings and briefly spoke over the phone about our need to relocate and our desire to be in the Victorian Village area. Joe showed us his home and then proceeded to keep us posted on showings and new listings even though it was above and beyond as we had not selected an agent. Once we decided to go with Joe exclusively he hit the ground running and not only showed us homes promptly and always had our best interests in mind, he was able to coordinate listings and showings for homes that were not even listed. Short of going door to door and reaching out to anyone and everyone, we ended up finding an off-the-market home and we...

Joe Speakman, of E-merge Realty, was my REALTOR® for the recent sale of my Harrison West house. He is very outgoing, upbeat, and personable to work with. He was very familiar with the neighborhood and provided lots of market analysis of comparable properties as a guide to determining the asking price. He imparts lots of experts, professional advice on ways to quickly enhance your property’s internal and curb appeal, including tips on staging for showings. He informs you of and walks you thru all the steps and documents required in the sale process. He offers references for various service providers you may need during the sale process. He is very ac...

Joe worked diligently with me and my partner for more than 5 months to help find the perfect house. Whenever there was a house I wanted to see he would make himself available and I never felt pressured into putting in an offer. When it came to putting in an offer and working with sellers, Joe was on top of everything reaching out to the selling agent, considering the market, and giving advice for creative ways to make a stronger offer. Overall I had a great experience working with Joe from start to end and was able to find the perfect house.

Joe helped me buy a house in a very competitive market. Joe’s vast knowledge of housing construction, real estate, and negotiations made my house-buying experience positive and successful. I highly recommend Joe to anyone looking to buy or sell in central Ohio.

Joseph is very knowledgeable and worked diligently to sell our home. We received offers on our home within the first week. We were very pleased with his attention to detail and how always made us aware of what going on. We recommend him highly.

Joe was amazing with our new build process including answering our questions at 10 pm! He got us some amazing credits and followed our process through to the end. We would use him for our next home-buying adventure!

Joe is quick to respond, knowledgeable about Columbus, and gives great advice. We are new to the area and Joe gave us the in and outs of the city. It was a pleasure to work with him during our home purchase.

Joe made our home-buying experience very stress-free and pleasant. He is very knowledgeable about the Columbus area and played a big role in helping us find a home that fit our specific needs and wants.

Joe Speakman by far is one of the best we have ever worked with in real estate. He helped us make a house our new home. Loved him and can't say enough about our experience with him.
