Meet Dawn.Your move matters.

I'm Dawn Tietjen, a Riverwood resident and Realtor helping buyers, sellers, and relocating families move confidently in Southwest Florida and Central Ohio. My work is personal because I understand that a real-estate decision is rarely only about a house—it is about the life you are building around it.

My story

Central Ohio roots. Southwest Florida perspective.

Central Ohio was home for many years and remains an important part of my real-estate work. I began owning in Southwest Florida in 2017 and moved here full time in 2025. Today I live in Riverwood, so the communities, roads, restaurants, beaches, golf courses, marinas, and everyday decisions I discuss with clients are part of my own life too.

Before joining The Matthew Patterson Group, Steve and I experienced the team as Riverwood clients—buying a condo in 2017, later selling it, and returning to purchase our current home in 2024. After receiving my Florida real-estate license, I chose to join the same Keller Williams team that had helped guide our own Riverwood moves.

That two-market experience is especially useful for relocation. I can help someone move within Central Ohio, prepare a Central Ohio sale while buying in Florida, or move to Southwest Florida from another state. When a client's current home is outside the markets I serve, I can help connect them with an appropriate licensed professional while they remain free to choose their representation.
