Get to Know Chris Olsen

Olsen Ziegler Realty is an energetic, transparent, innovative real estate company serving the Greater Cleveland area. We present our entire business model on this website for both buyers and sellers. Our unique, comprehensive service offerings provide our clients with the resources needed to make the best financial decisions possible. For our sellers, we strive to maximize their sales price while minimizing expenses. For buyers, we strive to put them in the driver's seat by providing the tools to make their property searches organized, efficient, and time-sensitive.

We do not believe in the concept of "one size fits all" in the real estate market. We know that buying and selling a home is one of the largest financial decisions our clients make and that we are active participants in the outcome. We do not take that lightly nor do we treat it as "just another deal." Instead, we respect the fact that our clients are individuals who have specific needs, budgets, and timeframes and we work hard to ensure that they achieve a successful outcome.

In any market, whether you are buying or selling, the key is to partner with a knowledgeable, experienced, responsive agent who is keenly aware of the market. We invite you to compare our business model and our service offerings to other real estate companies and Realtors you may be considering. We guarantee you will not find a company who compares.

We wish you only the best in your real estate endeavors. We hope you will allow us the opportunity to represent you in your home sale or purchase now or in the future.

Relocating to the Greater Cleveland Ohio area? If so, then you have found the right Greater Cleveland Ohio REALTOR to help you with your move. I have enthusastically and successfully represented many relocating families and individuals, from professional sports individuals (eg. Cleveland Browns), to senior executives who run multi-national Fortune 500 companies who have purchased high-end luxury homes, to mid-level managers, to young professionals purchasing their first home. Providing relocation services is much, much more involved and complex than a local move, and you need someone who knows how the relocation business works, someone who has successfully represented relocation buyers and sellers, someone who has received training in the complexities of relocation, and someone who first and foremost: Will completely care about you, your family, your needs, desires, wishes, concerns, fears, everything -- and provide this care in a professional, straight-forward, honest, responsive, efficient, and thoroughly detailed and dedicated manner. These are not just words on a webpage, but are simply mandatory aspects of provding exceptional relocation services. Having high expectations of service providers as a consumer, I can assure you that you will receive same kind of service that I myself would expect and demand. While I am a well educated, competent, professional, state-of-the-art, ethical, and very successful REALTOR, I measure my success not by my accolades or achievements, but by how satisfied my clients are -- after all, it's all about you, not me (hint hint - See the most prestigious customer satisfaction award given in Northeast Ohio in 2005). I am more than happy to provide references from past relocation clients as well as around town clients. I look forward to making your move a pleasant, enjoyable and fun experience.
