What My Clients Say

  • “Matt is amazing! He helped us purchase a house sight unseen and was very detail oriented throughout the whole process. Would definitely recommend!”

    - Haley Brockway

  • I cannot recommend Matt enough! Not only was he super knowledgeable, but he was also very personable, which made my first time home buying process all the better. He was always available and answered all of my questions, even the silly ones! I would 100% go to Matt again as my realtor, especially because he took the time to get to know my partner and I, and he really seems to value our relationship. Thanks for everything, Matt!

    - Katie Klauser

  • When searching for our forever home in Rochester - we struggled to find anything that met our needs. That was until we met Matt. He provided us options - most of them not even on the market yet - allowing us to get in front of any competitive situation. Matt was incredible to work with. We will definitely be using him again!

Frequently Asked Questions.

  • Rochester offers both great rental options and affordable homes for purchase, but in many cases, buying can actually cost less than renting.

    Monthly mortgage payments on a $350,000 home (with a modest down payment) are often similar to or even lower than rent for a comparable property. Plus, homeowners build equity and benefit from steady appreciation. Rochester home values have risen around 3 to 4% per year over the last two decades.

    If you plan to stay here more than two years, buying typically wins financially.

  • Every buyer is looking for something different, so it really depends on your lifestyle and priorities. A lot of my clients who want new construction at an affordable price are drawn to Prairie Ridge in Northwest Rochester, it offers newer homes, quiet streets, and easy access to most parts of the city. If you prefer established neighborhoods close to Mayo and downtown, Elton Hills is a great fit with its mature trees and central location. Reach out and we can discuss your preferred price point and needs!

  • Yes. We supply sturdy boxes, reusable crates, and sustainable cushioning. During your consultation, let us know your preferences and we’ll tailor materials to align with your environmental goals.

  • All in all, Rochester is a very safe place to live. Considered 60% safer than other similarly sized cities in the US. I love to use neighborhood scout to view specific crime reports in my desired neighborhood and highly recommend it!
