About Homesmith Buys Houses, Your Neighbor and Partner in Columbus Real Estate
Homesmith Buys Houses was founded in 2005 by Barry Smith, a Delaware, Ohio native and proud Ohio State graduate.
We're a locally-owned company based in Columbus. Our team offers homeowners across the Buckeye State a simple way to sell their homes as-is, for cash, and on their schedule.
We believe real estate should benefit communities, not just investors. That's why a portion of proceeds from every home purchase goes directly to Habitat for Humanity and The Ohio State University Alumni Association.
Barry's ongoing donations have supported local homebuilding efforts and educational programs across Ohio.

“Provided incredible relief. My problems disappeared.”
I never expected to receive the incredible relief that you provided through Homesmith. It will be hard for you to believe what your help meant to me! In many ways, you literally made all of these problems disappear.
Mom is now safe in a nearby apartment, all her bills paid off, and happy. For me, two years of terrible dread and hopelessness is over.
From the first moment, I felt that you not only understood the problem, but were also comforting in your discussions with me. I felt immediately that you had experience and knowledge of a process that would help us find a way out of this dilemma.
As we went through the process, I felt that you were very, very fair in discussing an offer for the property and I was amazed that you were willing to deal with a problem of this size.

“Barry made an emotional sale incredibly easy.”
I need to send a note of thanks for all the help Barry and his company gave to me and my brothers when selling my mom’s condominium.
She passed away last November, and my brothers couldn’t get to Columbus until March when we contacted Barry. We spent an emotional week going through her things to get it ready to sell.
I’m happy to report we closed on the property last week, about five weeks from start to finish. The process has definitely been the easiest part of these past few months.
I am so thankful there are people like you at trying times like this. Thank You!
