GIVING BACK

The Gibler Team Foundation

The Gibler Team Foundation Scholarship Walt founded the The Gibler Team Foundation in 2018 to help children in our community. It is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization that awards academic scholarships to children who are affected by traumatic hardships, diseases and disabilities. We take a portion of every commission check in real estate and donate it to these children.

As Realtors in Cincinnati, we are fortunate to see how incredible the area really is! We want to help do our part to make sure our city continues to be a world-renowned place to live, work and play. We also realize it takes a village to raise a child.

Since its inception, the Foundation has given out 85 scholarships to students locally. All of these children are truly inspiring individuals who show tremendous courage daily to not only survive, but thrive despite the hardships they face.

Total Scholarships Given: 85

Money Donated: $92,000

CLIENT TESTIMONIALS Sold Home in Hyde Park - Joe Ropp Local knowledge: Responsiveness:

Process expertise: Negotiation skills:

Walt is incredibly hardworking and works hard for his clients. He did an excellent job from start to finish- from providing us with recommendations for painters and cleaners to prepare our house for listing, to effectively working within a tight timeframe, to providing great advice and knowledge, to listening to our needs, and to exceeding our expectations in what we got for our home. Would 100% recommend Walt and the Gibler Team.

Sold Home in Finneytown - Stewart Federbush Local knowledge: Responsiveness:

Process expertise: Negotiation skills:

Engaged Walt and Team to sell home in Finneytown area. From the start, Walt and Team exhibited extensive knowledge of area. They provided wonderful tips on home presentation, suggesting a highly competent staging company. Team deployed a sound and successful marketing strategy prelisting to entice, then limited view and bid times - which helped sell the home at a premium.

Knowing we would be out of the area during the sale process, the Team was extremely responsive when we called or texted, and very attentive in maintaining the property (i.e. engaged crews to provide exterior and interior maintenance). Closing was professionally managed, all documents available for execution in a timely manner, and Team superbly represented us. Couldn't have been more pleased or satisfied with any step of the process, and very thankful for the quick and successful sale. Walt and Team are exemplary professionals in all aspects of the home sale process, trustworthy and able. I would highly recommend Walt and Team.

Sold Home in Hyde Park – Brian Stettler Local knowledge: Responsiveness:

Process expertise: Negotiation skills:

Walt Gibler did an outstanding job from the beginning to the end of this process. Walt Gibler and the Gibler Team helped my wife and I sell our two houses for top dollar in very different markets and then buy our dream home. We recommend him to anyone in the real estate market. Both he and the entire Gibler Team were detail-oriented, friendly, available, and got the job done quickly and efficiently. Excellent experience overall.
