Overview
Benita J. Wenzler is a sales associate with Howard Hanna Real Estate Services in the company’s South Dayton office, at 7625 Paragon Road in Centerville. Her own tagline describes her work as selling the Miami Valley one house at a time, and her Howard Hanna page puts the emphasis on customer service.
All five were on the listing side. Her closings are in Kettering and Oakwood, two Montgomery County communities with quite different price levels, and the numbers below show how her work sits within each.
The sections that follow cover her sales record, the two areas she has worked, her listed credentials and how her Oakwood activity ranks locally.
Her sales record in numbers
Wenzler has recorded 5 closed sales in the period, 5 listing sides and no buyer sides. Total volume is $2,167,750, which works out to an average of about $433,550 per sale.
Prices ran from $350,000 to $612,000, with a median of $378,500. That is a fairly tight band for the lower four of her five sales, with one sale at the top of the range pulling the average above the median.
Her listings moved quickly. The median time on market for her five listings was 1 day, meaning most of them went under contract almost immediately after reaching the market. The median sale-to-list ratio was 98.4%, and 2 of 5 listings sold at or above the asking price.
None of the five sales was new construction, and none was marked as renovated. Three of the five were multifamily properties, so more than half of her closed business in the period involved buildings with more than one unit. The other two were not multifamily sales. That mix is notable for an agent whose public marketing speaks in general terms about houses across the Miami Valley.
Because the period is short and the count is small, each individual closing moves the percentages noticeably. The figures are best read as a snapshot of recent activity rather than a full account of a long career.
Where she works
Her closed sales fall in two places. Kettering accounts for 3 sales and Oakwood for 2. She had no closed sales in the city of Dayton or in West Dayton during the period, though Howard Hanna’s area pages list her as a listing agent in Dayton as well as Kettering and Oakwood.
In Kettering, her median sale price was $355,000, compared with an area median of $255,000. Her Kettering work therefore sat about $100,000 above the typical Kettering sale, which places it in the upper part of that market. Kettering is a large inner-ring suburb with a broad range of housing, and the area median reflects that mix.
In Oakwood, her median sale price was $542,125 against an area median of $448,000, roughly $94,000 higher. Oakwood is a smaller, higher-priced market, and her two sales there, including the top of her price range at $612,000, fit the upper end of what the area sees.
Taken together, the pattern is consistent. In both communities her listings priced above the local median, and they sold close to asking price in a median of a single day on the market. With three of her five sales being multifamily properties, the Kettering results likely reflect a mix of small-multifamily and single-family housing rather than the typical single-family sale that drives the area median.
Background and credentials
Wenzler’s Howard Hanna profile lists four professional designations: SFR (Seller Representative Specialist is not stated, so the abbreviation is given as listed), BPOR, SRES and CNE. No other designations, such as ABR, CRS or GRI, appear in the information available.
Her experience is described in different ways. One agent directory lists 33 years in real estate, while a page tied to a family business describes a 35-year career as a full-time agent. Either way, she has worked in the field for more than three decades.
An Ohio salesperson license number, 332649, appears in an agent directory. Readers who want to confirm licensing status can use the state’s eLicense lookup.
A 2017 Dayton Area Board of REALTORS sales leaders list included the Benita Wenzler Team in its Award of Achievement category. At that time the team was listed under HER Realtors, at the same Paragon Road address now used by Howard Hanna’s South Dayton office. Some online directories still show that earlier affiliation.
She has also been listed as a presenter at a Greater Dayton business referral group meeting.
How she compares locally
On the Oakwood leaderboard for the period since March 2026, Wenzler ranks 9th with 2 sales. In a market with relatively few transactions, two closings is enough to place her in the top ten for the community.
She did not appear on a leaderboard for Kettering, where her three sales were the larger share of her activity. Her Dayton Report record in the period is limited to these figures, and no separate write-ups have been published.
The recent numbers show an agent working in two established markets, pricing above local medians, selling quickly and staying close to list price. A longer record would be needed to say whether that pattern holds, but the early-2026 results are a solid start to the year.
