Butch Wahlsmith - Redfin Principal Agent Redfin Is the modern way to buy or sell a home. Our mission is to redefine real estate in the customer's favor through advocacy technology and value.

Listing Specialist, Buyers Agent - New Construction Specialist, Resale (existing homes) Specialist, Holistic Real Estate Agent, Reiki Practitioner, Law of Attraction Life Coach My passion for residential real estate and all things spiritual has led me to a holistic approach to my business. A holistic real estate agent is someone who guides their clients through the real estate experience while taking the well-being of the whole person into account. This includes recognizing the interconnected aspects of a person or situation. With over two decades of knowledge and experience, I continue to learn and grow from the inside out and find great fulfillment by helping others fulfill their goals and become their best version. If you allow it, selling and buying a home can be an emotional roller coaster. The stress can sometimes take you to a new level of behavior that is not pleasing. My goal is to maintain a harmonious balance with everyone throughout the process. It goes beyond the mechanics of the sale, purchase, or both. How you approach this process makes a difference in the outcome. Maintaining a positive outlook is important. Over the years, I have helped other agents in this way and came to realize that blending my passion for real estate with my passion for all things spiritual can help my customer too. In fact, it already does behind the curtain. Keeping a gratitude journal, setting positive intentions, and creating/using affirmations to attract the type of customers I want to work with have been happening since I started in new construction sales. Most Realtors are independent contractors that are supposed to follow a code of ethics that often falls by the wayside. Our business model is superior from a customer service perspective. At Redfin, we are held accountable to the customer, period. They have the final say by means of my reviews. We have an acronym, O.L.D.C.A.R., that keeps our fiduciary duties top of mind. These duties are; Obedience, Loyalty, Disclosure, Confidentiality, Accountability, and Reasonable Care/Diligence. Furthermore, we have our own set of complimenting values at Redfin. These values; Honorable (do the right thing); Fire (Redfin is real estate redefined); Rally (rabid squirrels); Genuine (one Redfin); Wow (dazzle our customers). We want to own your move, so let me show you how. With your help, we develop a win-win scenario and plan for selling your home, finding a new home, or both. New construction is in my service portfolio too. Just remember to let them know you have an agent if you stop in a model without one. I'm here to earn your trust and leverage my experience to execute a plan intended for you to have a positive and rewarding experience.

Why the "Small Acts" of a Neighbor Matter More Than Ever

As a Residential Transition Strategist, I help people navigate the "Rocket" speed (pun intended) of today's real estate market. We use the Redfin platform to give our clients a data advantage, but I’ve realized that the most important part of any transition isn't the tech, it's the transition of the heart.

My guiding mantra is "Own the Dream." Usually, that refers to homeownership. But today, I’m thinking about the "Dream" that director David Borenstein spoke about recently—the dream of a country that doesn't lose its way through silence or complicity.

I believe we protect that dream by embracing the Mr. Rogers ethos. Fred Rogers knew that being a neighbor was a radical act of peace. It means:

Neutralizing Anger: Choosing not to feed the fire, but to act as a steady anchor for others.

Protesting with Love: Standing firm for what is right while refusing to surrender our compassion.

Stewardship: Realizing that once we "Own the Dream" of a home, we have a responsibility to the neighborhood around it.

Whether you're using the Redfin app to find your next chapter or you’re leading in your current one, let’s commit to the small acts that give our communities their spine. 🕊️

There are three ways to ultimate success: The first way is to be kind. The second way is to be kind. The third way is to be kind."

Why a Baby Macaque and a Historic Alliance are Redefining "Home" in 2026

I’ve been reflecting on the story of Punch-kun, the baby macaque who spent his first months with only a plush toy for company. His journey to finally finding his "tribe" is more than a viral story; it’s a living masterclass in my Philosophy of Harmonia.

In our world, we often talk about the Rocket ISMs, and seeing Punch finally receive his first grooming from a peer, his first real "boogie down" moment, reminded me of the core truths we live by:

"Bloom Where You Are Planted": Punch was rejected and isolated, but he stayed positive and did the work of surviving exactly where he was, trusting that his environment would eventually shift.

"You’ll See It When You Believe It": He held onto that plushie like a placeholder for the connection he knew was coming. He believed in the tribe before he could see it.

"Responding with a Sense of Urgency": When the opportunity for connection finally arrived, he was ready. In our business, urgency isn't just about speed; it's about being prepared for the moment the "gloom" breaks.

What this means for us right now:

With the historic alliance between Rocket, Redfin, and Compass, we are seeing a massive shift in how we help people find "home." By bringing over 500,000 new listings to the platform, we are literally expanding the "tribe" for our clients.

As a Redfin agent at this moment, we aren't just selling houses; we are the bridge. We are the "warm support" that ensures no one has to feel isolated in a complex market.

Like Charlotte Brontë wrote in her beautiful and famous poem Life: "Sometimes there are clouds of gloom, but these are transient all." Today, the clouds are clearing, and it's time to celebrate the progress.

If you’re looking to find your own 'tribe' or just need some warm support navigating this new market, reach out to your local Redfin agent. My team and I cover the entire Columbus metro area, and we’d love to help you find your way home.

Integrated search, agent and mortgage experience designed to make the homebuying process straightforward with less friction.

I’ve been craving a more aligned, predictable way to grow my business, and I finally found a framework that feels authentic.

I enrolled in Dan Rochon’s CPI Coaching, and the way he teaches influence, trust, and conversation leadership is next-level.

His new book *Teach to Sell* comes out in March, and the preorder bonuses are insane: over $10,000 in free training + access to the CPI Inner Circle. If you’re ready to build confidence, attract clients naturally, and stop the feast-or-famine cycle… this is worth checking out.
