We could not have been more pleased with our home buying experience with The Van Steyn Partners. Charlotte and Marc were extremely professional as well as knowledgeable about the Columbus area and the home buying process in general. They were available whenever we needed and acted on our behalf while we searched for a home from long distance. We found our perfect home with their assistance!

Marc of Van Steyn Partners did an excellent job listing our Powell home. He used excellent professional photography, state of the art digital marketing, and was very responsive to all our questions throughout the process. Our home sold after the first day of showings! We highly recommend Marc!

Marc listed our house and used state of the art marketing to sell it in 5 days. The Van Steyn Partners use professional staging, aerial photography, professional photography for the interior and exterior that are used in a full color brochure (not just a cut sheet), and a 360 degree web view of your home. In addition to this they use an app that allows you to track appointments and receive input on your showings from other realtors. I give Marc and the Van Steyn Partners my highest possible rating!

Marc was incredibly helpful throughout the entire process of buying a new home as well as selling our home. He is not pushy as I’ve seen in other realtors. Instead he is professional, honest, and works to do what’s best for you.

We recently purchased a home from out of state, and Marc made the process as smooth and easy as possible. He was extremely professional, thorough, and patient. He provided excellent advice and feedback on homes we were considering and was helpful every step of the way. We have worked with several realtors in the past, and our experience with Marc was by far the best. We highly recommend Marc Van Steyn.

Far exceeded expectations. We needed to fix up and sell a rental condo in Dublin after 8 years of renting it. We live out of state, so we needed more than "just a realtor". Marc had all the right contacts to rehab the property and make it ready for sale. That is, he arranged for contractors to paint the entire interior, replace all the carpet, replace the 8 foot patio door, update lighting and locks, and receive new appliances. When he marketed the property, we had a steady flow of potential buyers and wound up with multiple offers. He was extremely professional and knowledgeable through the contract phase. Closing was a breeze - no issues. He made a logistically difficult situation as easy as could be. We couldn't have asked for more or better!
Response from The Van Steyn Partners- REMAX Premier Choice
"I was happy to assist you with rehabbing the Dublin property and getting it ready for sale. I know how hard it is trying to manage a sale from out of State. I'm glad we got a great price for it. Best of luck! Marc Van Steyn"

Marc was AMAZING! Not only did he bring a buyer to us within 24 hours of listing, but they also offered full asking price. He worked tirelessly and truly went above and beyond to make sure we closed on time. As we looked for our new home, Marc was very impressive. Not only is his knowledge of the market superior to other realtors with whom we've worked, his vast knowledge of home repair/issues/improvement proved to be clutch on multiple occasions. It should also be noted that this man has the patience of a saint. I was a very particular buyer... very. He never made me feel as though I was being difficult or a pain (even though I'm quite sure I was!). He was always there to answer every question, show me every house I wanted to see, and give me the most valuable guidance I've ever received from a realtor. If you want to feel as though you're working with a realtor who is deeply knowledgeable and actually cares about what you want and need, Marc Van Steyn will exceed every expectation. He is fantastic!

It took us a long time, but that was on us. He showed us houses, and always answered within an hour when I would want to go see a house. If he could not make it, he would send someone else out to show us. He was very upfront about what might be wrong with any given house and what it might cost to fix that, and weighing in on the good and the bad. He was very patient with us, and our constantly evolving idea of what we wanted in a house, and he managed to get us the house of our dreams!

Marc was extremely helpful throughout the whole process of buying my home. He was always available to show potential houses, within 24 hours or less regardless of whether or not it was the weekend.  Marc pointed out issues in these houses that I would have missed had I been looking by myself.  He was extremely knowledgeable about every style and location of house I viewed and informed me about the pros and cons of each house.  He helped me close on the perfect house and had great attention to detail throughout the whole process. He made sure closing went smoothly and confirmed everyone involved completed his or her part of the transaction on time. Marc is a reliable, personable, and an all around amazing realtor who I will definitely be using again when I buy another home!

We are so glad we worked with Marc! We moved to from out of state for my husband's job, and Marc was so friendly and knowledgable about the Columbus area. He was patient with us and provided great education on unique and important things to know about buying a home in Ohio. He did a great job of pointing out both good and bad features of homes that we did not notice, which really helped us to evaluate our purchase more carefully. We were able to find a home quickly in a difficult buyer's market thanks to Marc's guidance and hard work. We would definitely work with him again!

My family and I recently moved to the Columbus area for my new job. 
Since we were new to Columbus and Ohio we had no idea where to live.  We
were referred by an acquaintance to Charlotte and Marc Van Steyn with
RE/MAX Premier Choice Realty.  Charlotte and Marc were the epitome of
professionals.  They gathered the necessary information about our
situation, what we were looking for not just in a house but a
neighborhood, and particular details specific to our family.  They
provided online real-time updates on properties that met our criteria so
that we could narrow down our search.  Given significant time
constraints in finding a home, we elected to make a 2 day trip to
Columbus to find a home.  In 2 days we saw 25 homes, some of them twice,
with Marc guiding us through each home carefully, adding his insight
into potential problems/repairs that might be encountered with each.  We
narrowed our search and then returned to Columbus shortly thereafter. 
This time Charlotte took us through the final list of homes.  Marc and
Charlotte were both very honest and open about the pros and cons of each
property and they clearly steered us to the property that fit us best. 
Our best interests were clearly their main concern.  We selected a
house and Marc facilitated negotiations with the sellers.  Negotiations
took less than 12 hours and In 4 days total we were able to see all of
those houses and sign a contract on the perfect one.  Marc and Charlotte
continued to assist us throughout the closing process and whenever we
were in town for house-related things (i.e. home inspection, etc) they
made it a point to stop by and make sure things were going smoothly. 
Even
more impressive than their service with helping us find and secure a
home was the extra mile that both Marc and Charlotte went.  For example,
we arranged for the home to be cleaned the week prior to our move-in. 
Marc offered to take time out of his busy schedule to open the house for
the cleaners and to make sure it was locked and secured when they
left.  Marc and Charlotte were in constant contact with anyone
associated with our transaction and made sure it went flawless.  They
also provided us with recommendations for local businesses that, to
date, have been excellent (e.g. home inspector, pest/radon inspector,
etc).  I can say that we are wholeheartedly impressed with the service
Marc and Charlotte with RE/MAX Premier Choice provided us in our home
buying experience.  I would highly recommend them and will use them
again if we ever need to relocate in the Columbus, OH area.

Marc was fantastic and helped us purchase our first home. We couldn't have been happier with the experience. Marc was so helpful in answering all of our questions, and as first time home buyers, we had a lot of them. He always got back to us timely and it was never any trouble reaching him. We never felt pressured into purchasing any particular home and I can say that we couldn't have had a better experience. I would highly recommend Marc and the Van Steyn Group. If and when we move again, we wouldn't use anyone else.

From the first meeting through closing on our home, Marc and Charlotte with the Van Steyn Group were prompt, professional, accessible, helpful, and personable.  We would highly recommend them if you are hoping to buy or sell a home.  Before we had even agreed to work with them, they arrived at our home with a plan to sell our house. Their marketing strategies set them apart from other realtors we interviewed. In the end our house was sold quickly and we got exactly what we wanted.

Both Marc and Charlotte were extremely professional right from our initial meeting in our home. They were very detailed in their explanations and analysis of pricing of the home. Once we contracted their service, they and had a professional stager walk through our home with suggestions and had an excellent professional photographer and videographer take pictures, etc. They design a professional floor map of the house which encompassed images and video of the property for the web. We received a very good offer very early on and feel that their marketing and staging attributed to a quicker sale. Unfortunately, the buyers were quite difficult and both Marc and Charlotte had to exercise excellent negotiation skills to keep the purchase moving forward and they did just that. We successfully closed on the home last month and we are confident that without the Van Steyn group representing our best interests, we may still have the house on the market. They did an excellent job, are very available, highly professional and personable.

The Van Steyn group was excellent to work with through both the sale of my existing home and the purchase of a new one. They provided a resource to help "stage" my house before it went on the market.  The pictures created for the marketing materials were wonderful.  Charlotte was my primary realtor and caught several items in my contract that I had overlooked. She was very quick to return phone calls.  She keep me informed of what was going on and when she wasn't available Marc stepped in to help me with whatever was needed.  I would recommend the Van Steyn group to anyone that is looking for quality service.

Marc and his team put together an extensive market analysis in order to properly price our home.  He also assembled advertising information and made our home visible in multiple markets, not just in Ohio, but in other states, where ultimately we found the perfect buyer.
