The last Wednesday of each month we run a seminar for new homebuyers. It is very informal yet very informative. Please email us to sign up.
I have been investing in real estate in Indianapolis since 1982 and have since used a lot of different REALTORS, some good some bad. I wish I had a Time Machine to take Diane back to some of those deals I did. Simply put she takes owernship of your house, whether you are buying or selling and she will get the best deal for you as if it were her own home!! She goes way beyond and above being a REALTOR. She takes it personally, each and every detail is covered and she will negotiate you the best deal before the other party knows what has happened!! Tireless, relentless, driven, honest, sincere, very real estate savvy... these words come to mind when I think of Diane.

We are happy to recommend Diane Grinnell to others, on the basis of our experience with her. With her assistance, we purchased our first home last year. We enjoyed working with her because of her own great enthusiasm for the task, her cheerfulness, the detailed expertise she made evident in so many ways, her candid advice, and her generosity with her time. She really made our search her own, by researching carefully the various options we considered. We feel very fortunate to have had her by our side, as we visited many possibilities and narrowed the field. In the end, we found exactly the home we were looking for--and we gladly give her a lot of the credit for that.
