I am a licensed REALTOR® and auctioneer, born and raised in Ohio, and based in Sunbury. I help clients navigate the real estate market with confidence, whether buying, selling, or exploring auction opportunities. With a commitment to integrity, personalized service, and innovative solutions, I strive to make every transaction smooth and successful.
As a dedicated real estate professional, I take pride in guiding buyers and sellers through every step of the real estate journey. Whether you’re a first-time homebuyer, a seasoned investor, or looking to sell your home, my focus is on delivering personalized, attentive service tailored to your unique needs. With a deep understanding of local market trends and a meticulous eye for detail, I work diligently to ensure my clients achieve their real estate goals with confidence and ease.My connection to the military community holds a special place in my heart. Having experienced the transitions and challenges of military life when my husband joined the service early in our relationship, I developed a profound empathy for veterans and their families. This perspective drives my commitment to helping those who have served our country find homes that truly fit their needs. I specialize in assisting veterans by leveraging my expertise in navigating the specific opportunities and benefits available to them within the housing market. With unwavering dedication and a compassionate approach, I’m honored to help all my clients—military and civilian alike—find a place they can proudly call home. Whether you’re embarking on a new chapter or investing in your future, I’m here to ensure your real estate experience is smooth, rewarding, and tailored to your dreams.
For over eight years, Clay Kaltenbach has been a driving force in the real estate market, successfully guiding clients through the buying and selling of millions of dollars in property. His deep understanding of the industry is rooted not only in his professional transactions but also in his personal investments, as he and his wife actively own and manage a rental property. This hands-on experience as both an agent and an investor gives Clay a practical, ground-level perspective on building equity, navigating market shifts, and maximizing property value for every client he represents.
Expanding his ability to deliver top-tier results, Clay recently added another powerful tool to his arsenal by stepping up to the podium as an auctioneer with a specialized focus on real estate. While he is soon to be a newly licensed auctioneer, he is no stranger to the high-energy environment of the block, having previously spent time assisting veteran auctioneers in executing successful real estate auctions. This background allows him to seamlessly blend the strategic, patient negotiation of a traditional MLS listing with the date-certain urgency of the auction method, ensuring he can pivot to whatever strategy best serves the property and the seller.
Beyond the real estate market, Clay is a dedicated entrepreneur deeply invested in his hometown of Plain City, Ohio, where he owns and operates multiple local businesses. Among these is Plain City Barbell, a premier strength facility dedicated to fostering a supportive, high-performance community for local athletes and lifters. Whether he is helping an athlete hit a new personal best at the gym or guiding a client through a high-stakes property transaction, Clay’s core focus remains the same: empowering people and helping them achieve their goals, no matter where they are at in their journey.
