A note from Danielle As I reflect on the summer and the transition into fall, I can’t help but feel incredibly grateful for the season of life we’re in, both personally and professionally. It’s been a busy one, filled with meaningful milestones, memorable gatherings and many reasons to celebrate! On the home front, we celebrated our oldest son’s high school graduation and sent him off to begin his next chapter at St. Bonaventure University. Our daughter headed into her sophomore year, back on the volleyball court, while our two youngest are keeping us moving with seventh-grade football and fourth-grade hockey. Life certainly isn’t slowing down, but I wouldn’t have it any other way! This summer, our home was filled with friends, family, events to help support meaningful causes in our community and even a few business gatherings. When David and I think about the life we’ve worked so hard to create, these are exactly the moments we envisioned: bringing people together, sharing great conversations, making memories and creating space for people to genuinely connect. It’s a brilliant reminder that the things we work so hard for are often the simplest things in life. Professionally, it’s been an extraordinary year… one I’m incredibly proud of. We’ve had our busiest season yet in the Finger Lakes, helping clients navigate significant life transitions and find their own version of what home means to them. My passion for Canandaigua Lake and the surrounding lakes continues to grow. Having the opportunity to live this lifestyle, understand what makes it so special and help other families realize their own dreams of lake living is truly a dream come true. Despite the headlines and ongoing speculation about the real estate market, our local market has continued to demonstrate remarkable strength. But perhaps more important than ever is the value of having an experienced advisor in your corner. Real estate decisions deserve more than headlines, opinions, or predictions. They deserve thoughtful, data-driven guidance, honest conversations and an understanding of both the market and your personal goals. That’s the level of service and perspective I remain committed to delivering to every client we serve. I’m also excited to share a new chapter for our business! David has officially joined our team as a newly licensed real estate advisor, bringing his experience and passion for investment real estate, commercial properties and portfolio management. It’s an exciting opportunity to expand the expertise we offer our clients and something we’re both looking forward to building together. As we look toward the holidays, I’m reminded once again of what matters most: Family, health, meaningful relationships and the opportunity to be present for these moments. Ultimately, those are the things we’re working so hard to build, enjoy and protect. Thank you, as always, for the trust you place in me, the relationships we’ve built, and the opportunity to be part of your lives. I never take it for granted! Wishing you a beautiful fall and a holiday season filled with everything that matters most to you. Cheers, Danielle

Record 42% of U.S. Listings Get Price Cuts — But Not in Rochester! By: Mary Jacob | New York Post Asad HASHIM Home sellers across America are throwing in the towel on their asking prices at a record clip. A staggering 42% of all active home listings in the United States are currently undergoing price reductions, according to fresh data released this week by real estate analytics firm Parcl Labs. That figure marks a 24 basis point jump from just one week earlier, with the national inventory of active listings sitting at 1.57 million homes. The cuts aren’t landing evenly. A cluster of Western and Sun Belt markets have blown past the 50% mark, meaning more than half the homes for sale in those cities are now priced lower than when they first hit the market. Colorado Springs is leading the pack with 56.3% of its listings slashed. Austin isn’t far behind at 54.1%, followed by San Antonio at 53.4%, Denver at 53.1% and Kingsport, Tennessee at 51.1%. On the flipside, even sellers in a handful of smaller Northeast and Midwest markets holding firm and barely budging on price still have a good chunk of cuts. Rochester has the lowest share of price cuts in the country at 17.8%, trailed by Atlantic City at 18.9% and Lincoln, Nebraska at 22.1%. Those markets have largely avoided the glut of inventory piling up elsewhere, giving sellers there far more room to wait out a buyer willing to pay closer to asking Zoomed out to the state level, the Parcl map shows the deepest red concentrated in the Mountain West and Southern states. Colorado and Oregon are both hovering just under the 50% threshold statewide at 49.6% and 49.7% respectively, while Texas sits at 47.9%, South Carolina at 46.8% and Arizona at 46.8% as well. Tennessee, Florida and Louisiana are all clustered in the mid 40s too, reinforcing just how broadly the discounting has spread across the Sun Belt.
New York, by contrast, sits at a comparatively modest 28.9%, putting it closer to the more insulated markets than the fire sale conditions out west. Connecticut is even cooler at 25.1%, and New Jersey checks in at 28.4%, suggesting the tri-state area’s tighter supply is still giving sellers there some breathing room. Illinois stands out as one of the lowest in the country at 28.2%, while nearby Indiana runs hot at 46.7%, a reminder that even within the same region, price pressure can vary wildly. Michelle Griffith of Douglas Elliman said buyers simply aren’t playing along with aggressive pricing anymore. “Buyers today are incredibly educated and they are willing to wait. If a seller comes to market too aggressively, buyers aren’t afraid to sit on the sidelines and let the property come to them. That’s when you start seeing price reductions,” Griffith told The Post. She added that many reductions are less a sign of weakness than a correction. “The properties that are priced correctly from the beginning are still trading, and exceptional properties can still command a premium,” Griffith said. “You want to come to market at a price that creates urgency. The longer a property sits and the more reductions it takes, the more leverage you ultimately hand to the buyer,” she said. Ali Wolf, chief economist at NewHomeSource and Zonda, pointed to a broader affordability squeeze driving the trend nationally. “There’s a bit of a panic among home sellers. The hope going into this year was that interest rates were going to go down, but as time has gone one, we’ve seen the complete opposite. Realtime mortgage rates are back in the 7% [range]. This means that prospective buyers are facing higher monthly payments,” Wolf told The Post. “For existing homeowners trying to sell, lowering the home price is one way to at least help offset the higher costs for shoppers. Areas that are very expensive (like the Mountain West) or oversaturated with supply (like the Southeast) are bound to see more price adjustments to encourage a sale,” Wolf said.

Here's what our client's have to say...
Amanda did an outstanding job with assisting me in purchasing my first home. She took the time to listen to me and helped develop a plan of action in order to be successful in this market. She sent me homes and even the homes I sent she took the time to do her “homework” to ensure that the homes I looked at were achievable for purchase, based on the market. Amanda was very knowledgeable about the process of purchasing a home and was very helpful with helping me navigate the challenges that arose.” -Grace Abbey, Gates
Amazing team!!!! I will continue to use them for all future purchases and listings. Their professionalism, communication, knowledge, and dedication are second to none. They made the entire process smooth and stress-free. I cannot say enough good things about them—truly top-notch professionals who go above and beyond for their clients. Highly recommended!!!!”
It doesn’t get any better than the service provided by Danielle’s team! Super responsive, and even pressured our attorney to prioritize our purchase to close within our 30-day requirement! -Todd, Naples
Danielle and her team were beyond professional while helping us navigate every aspect of buying and selling. Hyper-knowledgeable, empathetic and sharp when it came to the formal process, plus an incredible resource for putting us in touch with the right people and thinking through any/all of the "little things" that we needed help with along the way! Her attention to detail brings a level of confidence to what can otherwise be a very chaotic/stressful experience.” -C. Gaffney, Victor
