Services
Our broker, Andrew Show, began his Exclusive Buyer's Agent career here in Columbus in May of 1992 and he has never represented a seller, ever! Later that Summer of 1996 Michael Marshall joined our firm after a management career in the banking industry. We are an Exclusive Buyer's Brokerage, which means we represent only home buyers.
Finding an experienced Exclusive Buyer Agent is the single most important step in your whole home-buying process! At Buyer's Resource Realty Services, our Exclusive Buyer Agents work only to represent the needs of home buyers like you - we never represent the seller. This removes the conflict of interest that traditional real estate agents have and protects you from the Hidden Real Estate Danger.
It's easy to get caught up in the excitement of buying a new home. But we know it can also be challenging to find and buy a home that really matches your needs. You may find a home that's just right for you very quickly or you may have to look at more homes to find a good match. Either way your agent is there to help you.
You've found that special home in the Columbus area! Once you are in contract and have a closing date for your new home, you'll want to avoid the panic of forgetting something related to the move. Use our Moving Checklist to create your plan. We can also refer you to Columbus and Central Ohio professional moving services to make the task easier. Our Columbus Area Moving Checklist may be more detailed than you need, but it will definitely lower your stress level!

We hired Mike Marshall to help us purchase our new build, and it was the best decision we made in the entire process! We weren't sure we needed an agent for a new build, but we are so glad we went ahead and hired Mike, as he was incredibly helpful through the entire process. Mike is very knowledgeable and walked us through the entire process, from choosing the right builder for us all the way through closing on our dream home.

He helped us make important decisions and set expectations for every step of the process. We had the added challenge of trying to pick out floor plans and add-ons virtually (we lived out of state for the first half of the process), and Mike took the time to assist us with virtual appointments and help us make the right decisions for us. We can't recommend Mike enough!

I could tell things were going awry when Mike started telling me to manage my expectations. He quit when I asked him to put in an offer on a property he thought was too low. I understood his concern, but it was the best I could do in my situation. I felt that a rejection was better than not trying and he was unwilling to help. As a business that claims to represent only the buyer he seemed to worried about his reputation.

I'm sure that there were many factors, the tough market being part of it, but this was not a pleasant experience. Update 13 APR 2021 We have been in our home that we bought after parting ways with Buyer's Resource for 4 years. We are happy that we found something in our price range and target location. We now feel that we really dodged a bullet when Mike refused to place our offer.

That property sold below our targeted price, but due to warehouse construction in the area is so much less desirable now. After some reflection it seems that our price point and south east local probably made the return for the amount of work not worth it for Buyer's Resource. I guess the main take away is to chose a realty service that specializes in properties where you want to buy. Columbus is a large area. Buyer's Resource seems like they work great for those with a bit larger of a budget or closer to them. Good luck.

We worked with Buyer's Resource during our new build construction since we thought it would be good to have a party represent us and look out for our interest. Darren was absolutely wonderful to work with! Not only was he very knowledgeable, but he made sure we covered all of our bases throughout the process. Furthermore, he took time from his schedule to provide us updates on construction and even provided pictures.

Given that we lived 2 hours away, this proved to be extremely helpful. Not only was Darren great, but the rest of the team: Tina, Andrew and Michael also helped us and we couldn't be more grateful or thankful for all they did. Highly recommend them!

We bought our home years ago with the help of Mike Marshall, and he's been helping friends of ours ever since. His knowledge of the market and the properties in central Ohio, his ability to explain the process and guide us through the obstacles, and his patience as we asked him question after question - it all makes Mike a wonderful person to work with, and we can't recommend him enough!

Had a great experience working with Tina Carter, she was fantastic! Her research was very thorough and she was patient and extremely responsive. She was successful in helping me find the perfect place quickly. I highly recommend her and the Buyer's Resource team!

I worked with Tina Carter during my house hunting. She was absolutely wonderful and helped me immensely through the entire process. I would 100% recommend this company to anyone, especially first-time homeowners.

Mike helped us buy our first home 6 years ago and was awesome with all of our special requests and quirks. He pretty much held our hand through the process and made things run smoothly and pretty quickly and even saved us money along the way. We would definitely (and have) recommend Mike and Buyer's Resource to others!

Really good experience using Mike Marshall. My husband and I are first-time home buyers, and he walked us through every thing we needed to know, gave us great advice, and ultimately helped us find our dream home in the neighborhood we hoped to live in. Highly recommend Mike and Buyer's Resource.

Mike is great, he is a 100% for Home Buyers - 100% of the Time Exclusive Buyers Agent. He is always on the side of the home buyer fighting to get them the best price and terms. Don't hire an imposter buyers agent. Get the real deal with Mike!
