“Art was professional , efficient and responsive.” – Dave & Lisa K., Buyer in Medina

“I cannot rate Art’s services highly enough. Not in all my imagining did I expect such great services in working with a realtor. He was invaluable in helping me find just the right home AND in understanding every step of the process. He advised on everything from the smallest detail in a prospective home to connecting me with top-notch professionals in related areas, and always stayed on top of the progress of the contract phase. He is a great advocate for buyers’ needs and is very well-connected throughout the region. Most of all: we had so much FUN during the search process. The highest compliment I can pay: I consider Art a new *friend* and look forward to staying in touch. If you are looking for a realtor to make your buying or selling process safe, easy, and enjoyable, you will find no better than Art! ” – Alan R., Buyer in Brunswick

“This was a great experience for me. Art was very helpful and showed me properties in my price range. Art’s personality made this process fun and easy.

“After unexpectedly inheriting my listing, Art picked up the deal and actively worked the listing. He effectively communicated at each step of the process and was always available for any questions, concerns. I fortunately already had an offer in, however, it was unique and took longer than normal due to special circumstances. He worked with me in writing up a contingency to allow my house to be shown during the delay, which I really appreciated. Overall, great job by both! Selling a house is a very emotional and stressfull time, and their patience and cooperation was much appreciated. Thank you.” – Mary Lou Greene, Seller of 2920 Hillcrest Avenue in Cleveland
“Art was so easy to work with. He was always open and honest and willing to help wherever I needed. It took us over a year to find our home and through it all he remained patient and encouraging making the process feel so much easier than it was. If ever we need real estate help again we won’t hesitate to pick up the phone and call Art… and the best part is we know he’d be there ready to ride the roller coaster again. ” – Jillian & Tony Cugini, First Time Buyer of 7595 Spencer Lake Road in Medina

“Art was very knowledgable and helpful during our home buying process. I would recommend Art Hotes as an agent.” — Amber & Brad Perkins, Buyer of 5482 Wagon Trail in Medina

He advised me on finding the right lender, how to best negotiate the sale and answered my many questions, quickly and honestly.

I’d recommend Art, highly, to any potential buyer or seller.” – Jennifer Janik, Buyer of 4600 Ledgewood Drive in Medina

“Art gives it to you straight, he doesn’t misdirect you. Which makes him a valuable partner in such a confusing industry.” – Ryan B., First Time Buyer in Brunswick
“When we went on the market, there was nothing good about it. Declining neighborhood home sales and declining home prices were a huge reality. Our home was on the market for about a year and a half before we had it listed with Art Hotes. The other agents we used before we found Art were either part-time and could only “sell” our home when their schedule allowed it or were entirely too busy with all their other listings to worry about our home. Art was a refreshing, much needed change for our family. Not only did Art Hotes successfully sell our home, he was committed to our family and to our best interests. If we had questions, he honestly answered them. If we had concerns, he honestly helped us through. When we were ready to look at homes to buy, he immediately scheduled showings and gave us an honest point of view of his market knowledge pertaining to the homes we were seeing. When we found the home that was right for us, he met us there a handful of times so we could show it to our family members. By the end of both transactions, Art was more than just a Real Estate Agent to us. He is someone we’d call a friend. Selling and/or Buying a home can be a very emotional event. Art understood that and treated us with the utmost respect and professionalism. My family and I would most definitely recommend Art Hotes to anyone selling or buying a house! If you’re looking for an extremely professional and sincerely kind Agent with exceptional knowledge of the market around them ~ Art’s your guy!” — Ed & Kris Gambaccini, Seller of 319 Harcourt Drive in Akron

Most of all, Art always listened to my concerns and opinions which was important to me.” – Gary Flamik, Buyer of 3575 Good Road in Seville

I would definitely refer Art to my family and friends needing real estate assistance back in Ohio. It was a great pleasure to meet and work with Art.” – Kim Konopka, Seller of 1798 Avenbury Lane in Brunswick
“Art was extremely professional, helpful and irreplacable. We came from out of state and had a limited amount of time to go house hunting and no knowledge of how to even start looking for homes in the area. Art made that experience easy and painless. He sent us potential homes that fit what we were looking for before our visit to screen. He planned a tour of the homes we selected and took us through them for an entire Saturday. He fit our schedule and adapted his tour based on what we liked and didn’t like. He was friendly and outgoing and very personable! It was an excellent fit. We highly recommend Art to anyone looking to buy a home in the area! He will help you through the process and make buying a home simple – even when you are not in the state!” – Glenn & Virginia Duyvestyn, Buyer of 7245 Hunters Glen Lane in Seville

We never once had to request any feedback about how things were going, as Art was always readily prepared and contacted us first. Art Hotes will always have our business, and would certainly recommend his service to anyone.” – Terry & Laura Strong, Seller of 4379 Lexington Ridge in Medina
“Art has his business down to an”Art”. Real Estate is a very stressful process and Art makes it painless. Great job Art! Thank you for handling this transaction from a distance. Being in Columbus and having you handle this in Hinckley more than helped us out. You are the man!”
“Fantastic! Art was always available to answer our questions and he was able to guide us through the whole process. He listened to our questions and concerns and was able to find a house that was perfect for us and got it at a great price. This was our first house and we had many ‘first-time jitters’. Art was a calming influence and guided us through the entire process. Art never tried to push us to buy more than we could afford and always focused on what was best for us! I would recomment working with Art to anyone who is buying a house. His service and expertise was just what we needed, and he worked with us even after our deal closed and never missed even the smallest detail! Great job Art!” – Josh & Kim Grusendorf, Buyer in Medina
“Buying a house can be so frustrating! Art was very helpful and patient. He showed my husband and I countless houses before we found the right one. He even showed us some houses more than once. Art was available for questions and suggestions whenever we had them. He’s very knowledgable about Real Estate! Thank you Art, we love our new home.” – Stacey & Brian Price, Buyer of 2014 Byron in Brunswick
“One thing that’s great about Art is that he’s tech-savvy. He can send you text messages, e-mails, scan documents and other things that make it easier and faster to get things done.

Can’t beat that!” — Melissa & Tom Henderson, Buyer of 620 Bradley Road in Bay Village

Especially towards the end of the sale, he helped out with matters we brought to his attention that normally the buyer’s agent would handle.” – Shawn & Lee Hunt, Seller of 1015 Ty Drive in Medina
