Based in Columbus, Ohio, Courtney Thacker brings a creative eye, entrepreneurial spirit, and strong advocacy skills to her real estate career. As a licensed Realtor® with The Raines Group and the owner of a thriving salon in the heart of Victorian Village, Courtney has built her career around helping people feel confident—whether they’re sitting in her chair or searching for the perfect place to call home.

Courtney holds a B.A. in Marketing and has spent over a decade as an independent contractor in the beauty industry, where she’s earned a reputation for her attention to detail, clear communication, and deep care for her clients. These same qualities now define her approach to real estate. She understands that buying or selling a home is a deeply personal experience, and she’s passionate about guiding clients through the process with clarity, professionalism, and unwavering support.

With a special interest in working with first-time buyers and families looking for their “forever home,” Courtney helps clients see not only what a property is—but what it could be. Her strong visual sensibility, honed through years of design-focused work and a love of gardening, interior styling, and home improvement, gives her a unique edge when it comes to envisioning potential and offering smart, creative solutions.

As a member of The Raines Group, Courtney combines boutique-level client care with the resources of one of Central Ohio’s top real estate teams. Whether she’s advocating for buyers in a competitive market or helping sellers prepare their home for success, she approaches every transaction with focus, integrity, and a genuine commitment to her clients' goals.

When she’s not working, you’ll likely find Courtney tending to her garden, exploring Columbus neighborhoods, or dreaming up her next home project. Her clients appreciate her ability to balance a calm, grounded presence with a sharp eye for detail—and trust her to deliver an experience that is both smooth and strategic.
