Buying. Selling. Preserving. Planning.
Thoughtful Real Estate Guidance for Northeast Ohio
Real estate is about more than contracts and closing dates.
It's about finding the right place to build your life, preparing your home for its next chapter, and making confident decisions along the way.
Whether you're buying your first home, preparing to sell, searching for a century home, or simply wondering what your property might be worth, my goal is to provide thoughtful guidance, honest advice, and practical resources every step of the way.
Welcome to your journey to Home in Ohio—a place where education comes before expectations, preparation comes before promotion, and every client receives personalized support from beginning to beyond closing.
Meet Courtney
To me, home has always been about more than four walls—it's where life unfolds, memories are made, and new chapters begin. That belief is what led me to a career helping others navigate one of life's biggest decisions with confidence and clarity.
As a Realtor® with the Clorice Vines Group at McDowell Real Estate, I serve buyers and sellers throughout Northeast Ohio with a focus on education, thoughtful strategy, and personalized guidance. I believe the best real estate decisions are informed ones, and I'm committed to helping my clients understand the process—not just move through it.
When I'm not working with clients, you'll often find me volunteering with the Ashtabula County Historical Society, where I serve as Secretary and Chair of the Century Home Committee. My passion for local history and community gives me an even deeper appreciation for the homes and neighborhoods I have the privilege of serving.

Curious about your home’s origins? I offer professional home history research services to trace the lineage of your property, uncover original owners, explore architectural details, and piece together the timeline that makes your house a home. Whether you’re looking to apply for our County’s local Century Home designation, add depth to your home sale, or simply satisfy your curiosity, I’ll dig deep into archives, deeds, maps, and local records to bring your home’s story to life.

Courtney was a pleasure to work with, made selling my home easy and painless. She was very knowledgeable and if she didn't have the immediate answer she quickly obtained it. 10/10 would recommend and will certainly use her services again!

Bought a home in 2019
Courtney is an absolute professional and a breath of fresh air in a business that many equate to “going to the dentist”. She was super responsive, prompt, and went above and beyond to advocate for me, and to make sure my wife and Ali understood every step. I without a doubt would work with her again, and wish that I could give her 6 stars! Thank you Courtney!
