About Heather
Heather Stover is one of the most highly regarded agents in North Central Ohio.
Amongst many accolades and awards, just last year, Heather received the 2022 Award of Excellence, one of the highest awards set by the Ohio REALTORS for achieving sales in excess of $10 million.
“What is quite humbling for me is that every year, I’ve been blessed with more business, selling more than I did previously,” Heather said. “And I have worked so hard for my clients. I was never handed business; I went out and earned it. My business has come from word of mouth and referrals from past clients. And what that says to me is that I’m doing this right. I’m taking care of my clients the way that I should be. I’m getting repeat clients – parents who tell their kids, ‘You can only work with Heather Stover because I trust her.’ When someone says, ‘You’re the only realtor I’ll ever work with,’ that is success to me. I believe my mindset makes all the difference, I am not a pesky salesperson, I provide a professional service to my clients on their terms. It’s always about them, not me.”
Heather got licensed in 2017 and sold over $2 million within just her first year of real estate.
“Since the third or fourth grade, this was just something that always appealed to me,” Heather said. “I was always really intrigued by the uniqueness of different homes. I used to pick up those home brochures with all the listings outside the grocery stores and be enthralled by the descriptions of the homes. I was especially excited when they provided a full-page floor plan.”
From working in ministry at Crossroads Church and Mosaic Church to management and sales at Koorsen Fire and Security, Heather said she was finally led to real estate.
Feeling a need for change, when she asked a pastor friend of hers if he knew anyone hiring or any positions open, he responded, “I always thought you’d be great in real estate.”
Coincidentally, when she reached out to a female friend from college at Mount Vernon Nazarene and asked the same question, her friend told her that she was actually taking real estate classes herself at the time. Her friend also shared that the program was getting ready to start online classes, which would have been very convenient for Heather.
“I thought, ‘Is this the universe trying to tell me something?’” she said with a laugh.
Once she got licensed, Heather was off and running.
“I enjoy serving my clients most of all,” she said. “I’ve always wanted to provide the best possible service to people who were ready to buy or sell. I’ve always made myself available whenever my clients need me. I think that’s a misconception people have about being an agent. They think it’s so flexible and you can work when you want. Well, not when you’re really taking care of people. I’m taking phone calls at 10 o’clock at night sometimes. And that’s just natural for me – taking care of people when they need me. It was quite a switch to go from set office hours to making myself available all day, every day, but it works for me because I’m wired that way. My brain never stops.”
Heather said her natural instinct to care for others comes from a combination of being a naturally nurturing person and being influenced by her faith.
“Jesus was a servant, and that is the same mindset that is instilled in me,” she said. “My faith has always played a huge role in how I interact with others; patient, understanding, and attentive to needs.”
What else makes Heather an incredible agent?
“I’m a problem solver,” she said. “I love a challenge and I do whatever I can to solve them. What I also love about this job is making that phone call to tell my clients, ‘We got it’ when they’re buying a home. When an offer is accepted, I am ear-to-ear smiling with excitement for my clients. It’s one of the greatest feelings ever to see their joy in that moment.”
Outside of real estate, Heather loves spending time with her family. She and Wes share five teenagers and feel extremely blessed in this fun-filled season of life.
Together, they enjoy cooking new recipes, hiking, playing tennis, home projects, sporting events, and family game nights.
Two of the top reasons Heather said she chose Sluss was having the support of our large office staff and unmatched marketing to better serve her clients.

Heather Stover is, hands down, the best agent we have ever worked with. She is highly involved and extremely detail-oriented. She responds almost immediately and provides answers quickly. Heather has an amazing personality and truly made the entire experience a pleasure. She deserves 20 stars, but unfortunately, 5 is the maximum we could give. If you’re buying, selling, or both, make it easy on yourself and give Heather a call.

Kris Bruce (5 stars)
We chose Heather Stover as our real estate agent through Sluss Realty. She was professional, realistic, and compassionate. She came up with a game plan for selling our home that blew our socks off! She introduced our home to the market a week before showings started. We didn’t just get an agent, but a whole team from Sluss. Jami Kinton-Sluss and the “drone guy” did a masterful job teasing the market with their fly-through video of our home. Seven showings the first day and four offers were made! Heather Stover walked us through the offers and helped us navigate through them. Her expert guidance led us to a great contract. We couldn’t be happier.
Megan Redd (5 stars)
Heather made the buying process as smooth as can be. I was shocked when I went to the Sluss website and saw that she has other listings because as responsive as she was, I assumed we were her only clients. We’re thrilled with our new home and how seamless the process was.

Jennifer Emery – 5 stars
Why work with Heather? Attention is in the detail. My small 2 bedroom home was cute, but needed some umph to help move quick in the market. Heather came in room by room and gave in-site and physical labor moving furniture and staging my home to sell. This was in 2019, she had a buyer in less than 24hrs. I didn’t have to put a thought into the process, I knew she would take care of me. I trusted her so much, I introduced her to my parents to help with selling my grandmother’s home. Heather has become an adoptive sister within my family. She is honest, caring and communicates throughout the entire process.

Heather did a phenomenal job selling our property. She had it listed within a day and sold within a week. I would highly recommend her services.
Catina Pitzen – 5 stars
My husband and I had the pleasure of working with Heather in early 2021. We actually “found” her while viewing open houses. After one conversation we knew she was who we wanted to assist us. She was always receptive returning calls and messages quickly and made us feel like we were her only client. We closed on our dream house within 2 months, during one of the most competitive times in the real estate market. Once moved she then assisted us in selling our current home within 1 day of it being on the market. The most wonderful part of the whole story however is that during the experience we bonded and now count Heather as one of our best friends! You cannot go wrong choosing her as your realtor.
