Walter Real Estate & Auctioneers

The Walter's auctioneering history began when David E. Walter sold his first auction in 1936 for his father. A few years later his brother Austin R. Walter joined him and thus Walter Brothers Auctioneers began. Dave & Aus sold lots of auctions during the time the small farmer was leaving the farms. Also they sold livestock auctions at the local stockyards. Austin passed away in 1963. At that time Ben joined his father in the real estate and auction businesses. Tom joined Dave and Ben a few years later as David Walter & Sons. David passed away in 1971. Ben and Tom continued in the auction business as Walter Bros. and soon became incorporated in the 70's. Walter Real Estate continued with Ben Walter as Broker.

Matt Walter, Ben’s son, started in the business in 1990 with Walter Bros. Inc. He later received his real estate salesman & brokers licenses. In 1995 he graduated from University of Findlay with a marketing degree. In 2020 Matt activated his brokers license and continues as Walter Real Estate & Auctioneers
