Overview
Richard L. Spyker, known to clients and colleagues as Rick, or “Spike,” is a Dayton-area realtor with Bill Lee & Associates Inc. He describes real estate as his full-time career, and his own materials point to more than 20 years of experience in the business. A professional networking profile lists him as a realtor and part-owner of the firm, with a start date of March 1994.
Bill Lee & Associates operates from an office on Regency Ridge Drive in Dayton. Tawnya Lee-Hurst is listed as the firm’s president and broker. Spyker is among the agents named on the brokerage’s office listing, and he is described in business directories as both a realtor and a part-owner of the company.
In the period since March 2026, Spyker has closed 4 sales totaling $1,303,500 in volume. All four were listing-side transactions, meaning he represented the seller each time, and none were on the buyer side. The sales were spread across three communities in the Dayton area: Kettering, Centerville and Springboro.
The pages that follow set out those figures in more detail, including price points, time on market, and how his sales compare with the median prices in each area where he closed a sale.
The sales record in numbers
The four closed sales in the period since March 2026 ranged in price from $166,500 to $560,000, with a median sale price of $288,500. That spread covers an entry-level home at the low end and a substantial property at the high end, which suggests a practice that is not confined to a single price tier.
Each of the four sales was a listing the agent took to market himself. Those listings had a median of 25 days on market, a pace that reflects homes finding buyers in under a month at the midpoint. The median sale-to-list price ratio was 97.6%, meaning homes typically closed within about two and a half percent of their asking price.
Two of the four listings, or 2 of 4, sold at or above asking price. The other two closed somewhat below list, which is what pulls the median ratio just under 100%.
The mix of property types is worth noting. All four sales, a 100% share, were renovated homes. None were new construction, and none were multifamily properties. In practical terms, the record since March 2026 is built around existing single-family homes that had been updated before or during the sale.
Because the window is short and the count is small, these figures describe a recent stretch of activity rather than a full measure of a career that, by his own account, spans more than two decades.
Where he works
Spyker’s closed sales fall in three communities: Kettering with 2 sales, Centerville with 1 and Springboro with 1. He had no closed sales in the city of Dayton or in West Dayton during this period, even though his own materials describe a service area that includes Dayton itself.
Kettering. This is where he was most active. His two sales there had a median price of $288,500, compared with an area median of $255,000. His Kettering homes therefore sold somewhat above the typical price in the city, by roughly $33,500 at the median.
Centerville. His one sale here closed at $166,500, against an area median of $335,000. That puts it well below the local median and makes it the lowest-priced sale in his recent record, a reminder that even in a higher-priced market there are homes available at more modest price points.
Springboro. His single sale in Springboro closed at $560,000, the highest in his record, against an area median of $420,000. It was about $140,000 above the typical home price there.
Taken together, the pattern is varied. In two of the three communities his sale prices were above the local median, and in the third the sale was a more affordable home. That range matches the broad geography he lists on his personal site, which names Beavercreek, Bellbrook, Centerville, Dayton and Kettering among many communities across the Miami Valley.
Background and credentials
By his own account, Spyker has been a realtor with Bill Lee & Associates for more than 20 years and is now a part-owner of the company. A professional profile gives March 1994 as the start of his tenure with the firm, which is consistent with that long history. On his personal site he writes that real estate is his full-time career and that he enjoys it.
He also advertises a free-move offer for clients in the Dayton area, one of the ways he presents his services on his website. Details of the offer are best confirmed with him directly.
Listing pages that carry his name credit the sales to Richard L. Spyker of Bill Lee & Associates Inc. The brokerage’s web address, listed in business directories, is buydayton.com.
Ohio has also moved its real estate licensing lookup to a new state portal, so readers who want to confirm licensing status can do so through the Ohio Division of Real Estate and Professional Licensing.
How his numbers read locally
Dayton Report’s agent leaderboards do not currently list Spyker, which is not unusual for an agent whose closed-sale count in a short window is modest. With four closings since March 2026, the more useful comparison is with the markets he serves rather than with rankings.
On that measure, his results hold up. His median sale price of $288,500 sits above the Kettering median, and his Springboro sale was well above its area median. His listings sold in a median of 25 days and, at 97.6% of list price, close to asking.
Readers considering an agent will want a longer record than a few months provides. What the numbers do show is a seller-side practice centered on renovated homes in Kettering, Centerville and Springboro, backed by a career at one Dayton brokerage that began in the 1990s by his own account.
