“I am so grateful to Laura Helker and all the work she did to help me become a first-time homeowner! I was entirely new to the process and a bit overwhelmed, but Laura was incredibly patient with me and my parents and made us feel comfortable. She did a great job explaining the intricacies of buying a house, and stuck with us through the whole process. It was great to have her support and knowledge, and she was always easy to get ahold of whenever I had questions. I highly recommend Laura!”

Market gauge is calculated using active listings and pending sales from the most recently available reporting period (Jul 2026 - Sep 2026).
Homes in Lyell Otis Avery have been moving at a brisk but slightly slower pace in the latest rolling three-month period, with a median of 16 days on market, up modestly from a year ago. Nearly half of listings still go off the market within two weeks, showing that well-priced homes can attract quick offers even as buyers take a bit more time to decide.
Prices have softened compared with last year, with the typical home value down notably year over year, while the median list price has actually risen over the same span. This mix suggests sellers are reaching higher with asking prices while closed sales are settling lower, pointing to more negotiation. Even so, the average sale-to-list ratio remains high at over 109 percent, and a majority of homes still sell above the list price.
Inventory has inched up, with active listings slightly higher than a year ago and months of supply down sharply to about 2.1 months, underscoring that it is still very much a seller’s market. Buyer activity remains solid, as pending sales are up strongly year over year, even though the total number of homes sold has dipped. Compared with the broader Rochester market, Lyell Otis Avery offers lower typical values but similarly tight supply, so both buyers and sellers can benefit from Agent Pronto’s help connecting with a local agent who understands these conditions.

“We met Sherri, when we decided to take a look at a house we saw on Zillow. From there she became our realtor. Showing us each, giving advice and making sure that each house had important items that were up to date like the furnace and water heater. Looking for a house and bidding was very stressful for me, but she encouraged me and was patient with me, through the whole process the house buying market is rough now, but through it all we were able to find a house with everything we wanted in it. And I am thankful for Sherri’s help.”
“I have worked with John since 2015. In that timeframe, I have bought 2 houses and sold 1 with him. His process knowledge is excellent and comes up with solutions when things don't go the way they were planned. He continues to show us a few properties a year as we try to find our next home for our family.”
“Working with Chelse and Ben was truly an outstanding experience from start to finish. Their professionalism, knowledge, and efficiency made what could have been a stressful process feel smooth and manageable every step of the way. What stood out most was the personal touch they brought to everything they did. They genuinely cared about our needs, took the time to answer every question, and always made us feel like a priority. Their expertise and attention to detail gave us confidence throughout the entire process, and their communication was exceptional. Chelse and Ben went above and beyond in ways that did not go unnoticed, and we are incredibly grateful for all of their hard work, guidance, and support. It is rare to find someone who combines such professionalism with genuine kindness and dedication. I would highly recommend them to anyone looking for a realtor who is knowledgeable, efficient, and truly invested in their clients. Thank you!”
“This was my second time working with Nathan and each time has been a delight! He is on time for appointments, responds promptly to requests for showings, and proactively marketed our home to achieve a high level of interest on home buying platforms. We had over a dozen showings scheduled in the first day of listing and received multiple competitive offers and an accepted offer within 48 hours of listing. In addition, Nathan is kind and professional and is exactly the pro you want working for you in this process! I highly recommend Nathan as a trusted real estate advisor for your upcoming purchase or sale.”
“Matt did a perfect job helping me sell my home. He is responsive, attends to details and is knowledgeable of the market. Everything went smoothly because of this. I would absolutely recommend him. Thanks Matt.”
“Joseph is an amazing realtor who really takes the time to understand his clients needs and wants. We were out of state for a majority of our home search and Joseph didn't hesitate to do video tours of homes we were interested in. His patience and dedication to our home search was very much appreciated and valued. We appreciated his honest input and trusted him throughout the process. He is truly an asset to the Rochester housing market.”
“My husband and I had a fantastic experience working with Harlan! From the beginning of March through mid-April, he dedicated nearly every Saturday and some week-days to touring homes with us — always showing up with patience, insight, and a positive attitude. He truly listened to what we were looking for and never pressured us, which made the process feel supportive rather than stressful. His knowledge and responsiveness helped us feel confident at every step. He really does look out for his clients and goes above and beyond to make sure you get into the right home for you! We’re so grateful for his time and expertise, and we highly recommend him to anyone looking to buy a home! Harlan is not only a great realtor but also a wonderful friend! Thank you for helping us buy our first home!”
“Happy to find an agent who was familiar with multi-family across the nation for my purchase.”
“A Heartfelt Review for Realtor MyoungJin Joo It is not easy to meet truly trustworthy people in life, especially in fields like real estate, where most individuals have limited experience. However, MJ was different. She is an exceptionally skilled and highly reliable realtor. From our very first meeting, she clearly outlined our goals, proposed practical strategies to achieve them, and then delivered on every promise she made. Unlike other agents who might suggest remodeling without specific guidance, MJ personally guided us through the process. She didn't just emphasize the importance of renovations—she helped us execute them, demonstrating her remarkable design talent along the way. Thanks to her expertise, our home was transformed beyond our expectations, ultimately leading to a successful sale. One of the most unforgettable aspects of working with MJ was her incredible family. Her hardworking and detail-oriented husband, Karl, and her thoughtful son, who often came to assist, exemplified genuine family dedication and teamwork. Their combined efforts left a lasting impression on us. We are deeply grateful to MyoungJin Joo, a true expert in her field, for helping us pass on our newly revitalized home to its next owner. Thank you, MJ, for your unwavering commitment and professionalism! We wish you continued success in all your future endeavors. With heartfelt appreciation, Kye-Im Jeon”
“Just finished a successful closing with Keith Hiscock of ReMax. He is the ultimate professional. He communicated every step of the way and kept us in the loop. He definitely knows the ins and outs of the business, and was right on the money with his listing price. He also provided excellent advice on prepping our house for the sale, and was very reassuring and calming throughout the entire process. A++++!!!”
“he was very patience with me i was amazed by his patience and professionalism”
“Steve was a pleasure to work with. The house sold quickly with being on the market for 3 weeks.”
“Mark was able to list and sell our home in one week for well over listing price. He is knowledgeable, efficient, and reliable. He made our out of state move seamless.”
“Scott helped me into my first home and then with its sale. He is very easygoing and down to earth. He is very open to questions and text messages. When I bought a home outside of his area of expertise, and when we ended up in a dual agent situation where my seller realtor ended up being the listing agent for one of the homes we wanted, Scott helped give me a neutral opinion on how much to offer. He was technically not hired to help out in that scenario so I thought it was nice of him to do a little homework for me. Recommended.”
“My wife and I were having a tough time with our realtor and finding our perfect dream home when someone recommend Virginia to us. THANK GOD! She was a dream. She was so much help. Patient, knowledgeable, honest, and efficient. I would recommend her to anyone seriously trying to find their dream homem”
