Laura Stone Rusty did a great job throughout the process of our new home purchase. We appreciated his responsiveness and knowledge. Thank you!

Tim Ferguson Great realtor! For his clients above all else.
Travis Combest Very communication. Very resourceful. Rusty went above and beyond to assist me with the sell of my home.
Lynn Jessop I met Rusty in October of 2022 when on a visit to family in Indiana. I had chosen to retire in 2023 and wanted to start looking at homes to purchase to move from California to Indiana. Rusty was beyond helpful ensuring that I was able to view many homes via FaceTime from California. If he was away he ensured one of his associates would take me thru the virtual walk through. After 2 months I have a new home, well new to me. Rusty’s recommendations on who to work with how things work even to sending me utility websites to transfer over power when purchasing. This was a smooth transaction. I look forward to my move and settling in. I highly recommend Rusty whether a new home buyer or if you have purchased and sold before. Thank you Rusty you made a very positive experience out of something that was so unknown to me. Thanks for your guidance, wisdom and time.
Mark Middleton Rusty did a fantastic job all around!! Communication was excellent. He sold my house for what I was wanting and quick. There is no reason why he should not be your number one realtor.
Riley Forbes Rusty Downey was AMAZING. He never left us in the dark about anything, and he answered all our questions. We had never bought a house before, and he answered every single question we had, no matter how "dumb" the question might have been! He was extremely helpful and accommodating, and he always seemed to go above and beyond for us. He was an amazing realtor! Thank you so much, Rusty!!

Haley Van Dyke I was so lucky that a friend of mine connected me with Rusty Downey at Carpenter Realtors. When I first spoke with Rusty I told him that I wasn’t sure if buying a home was what I wanted to do, but that I wanted to just chat about what the process might look like for a first time homebuyer. He was more than patient with me as I thought through my options and ultimately decided that I wanted to buy. He replied to late evening text messages and answered phone calls on the weekend. He scheduled home showings for me within minutes of me expressing interest and was flexible when I changed my mind about things. He guided me through every step in the process and even after closing he provided recommendations of local companies for services that I needed. 10 out of 10 stars. Thank you, Rusty!
Shelly Johnson Rusty was very good to us! I would recommend him to anyone! Thanks again for all you did!
Timothy Carter Rusty Downey was fantastic. He not only made himself available at any hour of the day, but worked super hard every day to serve us beyond way beyond what we expected & in many ways that we did not realize that a realtor could or would help. He made the journey fun & exciting. We ended up getting more house than we thought for less money than we thought. He learned exactly what we wanted & he kept finding new options of what we wanted every time a possibility did not work out. Rusty became a close & valued friend during this experience!
Brian Depp Rusty Downey is the hardest working realtor I’ve ever had. We were selling the home from out of town. Rusty offered on several occasions to check on things at the house to save us the trip and worry. We never had to wait on a callback from Rusty, never had to wait on an answer to any question. When we ask for advice, it was solid. We are very pleased with the sale of the house and how smoothly everything went. We highly recommend Rusty Downey! Sincerely, Brian D. Columbus Indiana
Jessica Sevier Rusty was so great! We made a very quick decision to sell our house in Tennessee, so we could move to Indiana to be closer to family. He made our whole moving process so smooth as we searched for a home while still living out of state. We will absolutely reach back out to Rusty when we are ready for our next move! :)
Judith Ayers Rusty Downey is a very conscientious and competent agent. He is a good listener and picks up on needs of his client quickly and also much more patient than I was with the market. He kept saying “It’s out there, we need to be patient.” He was willing to take me to whatever drew me to a particular property. He was always prepared if it “was” the right property. I would say Rusty was an instrument in learning patience. I sit here now eating my lunch at my new home after 6+ months of viewing homes - (at least 45 and making 3+ offers). It was as he said “the right home”. I would know it when I saw it and I did. Thank you Rusty. I would encourage anyone looking for someone who listens, has a sense good sense of the market, is very open to the client’s needs and their intuition. This is the agent for you.
