What clients say about this agent....
I cannot recommend Damien enough! Not only did he help us sell our home in a flash, he also helped us navigate the next phase of our home adventure - building a new home! Initially, we were unsure about whether to build or buy an existing home and Damien helped us explore both options. He was always available for questions and explained complex realty concepts in a way that was easily understood. Damien is so dedicated to helping families find the best home for them, often arranging for and attending multiple showings with us (despite living across town) and bringing up perspectives we hadnt considered throughout the home buying process. We could tell he wanted us to be happy with our final decision 30 years from now, hes not just in the business to sell any house to any buyer.On the home selling side, he was honest about the updates we needed to make to our home to best position it in the market. And he was right - our home sold in less than 2 days and he coached us throughout the negotiation process.All in all, if you are looking for true partner in your real estate endeavors, Damien is that. He is also quite fun to work with which makes a somewhat stressful transition much more enjoyable. Cant thank him enough for his time and effort. You will not be disappointed if you make the smart choice and work with Damien Baden!
We were fortunate to find Damien during our search for a realtor when we were ready to list our home. During our initial meeting, we spent nearly 3 hours discussing his strategy for listing, marketing and ultimately selling our home. Time very well spent! All of that without a commitment up front. Once we made the decision to go with Damien, he made the process very simple and extremely professional. For the marketing, the photography was excellent and Damien himself took care of the 360 Tour which was truly outstanding. He also included a video and used drone footage to provide an outstanding overview of our property. As to establishing our asking price, he provided market insight along with the best approach to ensure the maximum visibility to our listing while respecting our wishes. Ultimately, using the detailed information we provided about our home, updates, etc, Damien assembled a great piece describing our home and featured it on his website. After 2 days of nearly non-stop appointments, he assembled a very clear spreadsheet outlining the many offers we received with the important information included. He helped guide us on the decision, but never pushed us in any specific direction. We really appreciated Damien's responsiveness! Never an issue getting in contact and always ready to assist. We would highly recommend Damien to represent you as a seller! Great experience!
One of the best decisions I have ever made was to have Damien represent me in the sale of my home and after seeing everything he did throughout the process; I cant believe I ever considered selling by owner. His efforts and expertise led to multiple offers and a cash deal far over list price!It all started with a phone call in the evening and by the next day, Damien had already done an incredible amount of work for me before I even aEURoehiredaEUR? him. He continued that with a visit to my home the following day to consult with me on the best way to stage my home and followed-up the visit with a list of things I could easily do to increase the value. Damien had so much online traffic to view my house it resulted in over 30 showings that weekend and multiple offers. It was so busy we had to stop the showings by 2:30pm on Sunday and by that night I had accepted an offer and signed paperwork. I could go on and on in my praise and gratitude, but Ill end it with the fact that Damien is absolutely an expert in his field and is equally invested in selling your home as you are. I'd give him a 10-star ranking if it was an option!
My husband and I have had many many moves over the years in a numbers of states across the country. We utilized a realtor for every sale or purchase and our recent buying experience with Damien was by first the most superb experience yet. Damien thinks of the buyer, providing insight on the homes we saw based on his experiences in the building, buying and selling markets. Hes the most honest, available, and responsive person we have ever worked with. And hes a great guy! We highly recommend him for all your buying or selling needs. Even if you build, hes such a great resource into what to watch for and when. Hes one in a million! We found the perfect home!
Damien was instrumental in helping me purchase my first home! He walked me through every step of what I should be looking for in a home and never made me feel rushed or pressured during the process. He was patient, insightful, a very very knowledgeable. I don't doubt that if I wasn't working with Damien, I would not have found my new townhouse (and I probably would've paid a lot more for it)! He was always accessible and quick to respond to any questions I had, big or small. I would recommend Damien to anyone looking to buy! He took all of the stress out of the process and I am so grateful for the help!
As a real estate photographer I work with over 50 agents on a regular basis and out of all of those professional relationships I chose Damien as our buyer's agent for our daughter's first home-buying purchase. While working with Damien I've witnessed his impeccable credibility, uncompromising work ethic and client loyalty. His thorough understanding of N.E. Ohio's market and financial background made the process easy and streamlined. Another quality I / we like beyond his professionalism is his politeness and patience. So many realtors fit the unpleasant stereotypes all of us know so well - pushy, unqualified and unreliable.Lastly, he was able to get my daughter financed through one of his lender relationships in 12 days! If you want a best-in-class experience do yourself a favor and use Damien as your listing and / or buyer's agent. You will not be disappointed.
Damien Baden of Coldwell Banker Schmidt has made my stressful buying / selling / moving experience during this pandemic much easier for me! He has been here for me each step of the way...from listening to me regarding what I wanted, sending me homes that matched my preferences, assisting me with what I needed to do to get my home ready to sell...and really being there for me when the time came that I found my dream home so we could secure an appointment to view the day it went on the market and stayed up late to ensure my bid was submitted that very night. He also worked with me to wait as I prepared my home to sell and coordinated an excellent photographer to make my home look great and did a 3D Tour himself to help market and sell the home quickly. I did it backward, which is not a realtor's preference, however he understood the importance for me to move ONCE. My bid was accepted the next day and my home sold the first day it was on the market with multiple bids and went for well over the asking price. I would highly recommend Damien as a partner for this difficult process of buying/selling a home! Plus he has connections to everything you need...awesome finance company that really works with you, carpet cleaners, window cleaners, home cleaners, etc. Plus he has a great personality, which helped with the stress. I am so happy to be settling in my new home...thank you Damien for making this finally happen for me! Michelle Gandolf (Moved from Brunswick, OH to Medina, OH).
The process of putting your home up for sale I thought was going to be very daunting and stressful. I am a very type A person. I like to know whats happening, have things planned out and the aEURoeunknownaEUR? is not my friend. This is where Damien came into play. Damien made this process as stress free as I couldve hoped for. He lays lots of leg work and does a ton of marketing before your house is even active on the market. He keeps you in the loop, always lets you know what the next step is and is accessible whenever you need him. Upon the first meeting, he gives you realistic expectations of what he thinks your home is valued at but also listens to your lists of needs. He is a straight shooter, which I love. As homebuyers we always think our house is the best and should be worth top dollar, but to a potential buyer they may not see it that way and Damien helped keep us grounded in that sense. Damien was the trifecta for us. He made this process easy and as stress free as possible. He got us the best value for our home, and he listened to our lists of wants and needs. I would HIGHLY recommend him and would use him again in the future for selling or buying a home!
Damien is the best realtor we have ever worked with and the only one we will ever work with again. He is an expert in his field - able to answer any question that comes his way. His knowledge and patience is unmatched. He advocated for us and educated sellers realtors about the VA loan process - helping others see us as having a competitive offer. Damien was always up front and honest, addressing each and every concern we had - never trying to rush us through the process. He continuously went above and beyond, providing us with great recommendations to assist with our mortgage process and ensuring we were always protected as the buyer. Because of Damien we were able to get our dream house. We would highly recommend him to anyone looking for an expert to guide them in the home buying process.
Damien Baden was wonderful from our first phone call to the close of our house and beyond. Living in Arizona and wanting to move back to the northeast Ohio area, I found the home of my dreams online and called him immediately as it was his listing. He provided me with tons of information and was so helpful. I hopped on a plane 3 days later to see it real time. Damien picked me up at the airport and took me directly to the house. We were able to successfully negotiate a deal and moved in last month. Damien was super helpful with our move and everything related to the home-buying process. He kept us informed of what was going on in Ohio, which was very reassuring being so far away. Unbelievably responsive, professional and just a super nice guy. He had the house cleaned before we moved in, and has called to follow up numerous times to make sure we don't have any questions or concerns. I don't think you could go wrong with Damien as your realtor.
