For Buyers
This section includes information and real estate services for buying a home in the Rochester Area and Monroe County, Wayne County and Ontario County. I recommend you use the Home Search if you are interested in searching for a home. As a Realtor ®, I am privy to some of the best homes before they go on the market. Simply fill out the Property Request form and I'll get back to you ASAP with homes that meet your specific requirements.
If you are tired of searching for available homes on a daily basis, I would be happy to have MLS listings (any homes that are multiple listed by all real estate agents) e-mailed to you as soon as they come available. I can have homes that fit your needs sent to you as soon as they come available. If this sounds like something you would like feel free to contact me @ skipordway@earthlink.net. (click the e-mail address) I will submit your needs to the auto-notification program and listings currently available will be sent as well as new listings as they come available.
As the top selling Realtor in the Farmington/Victor area I have knowledge of new listings coming available well before it hit the MLS. If you are looking for a home in the Victor/Farmington area you will be one of the first buyers to view the homes. As a leader in Buyer Agency I have 25 years of award winning experience which costs you nothing. My fee is paid by the seller. I will work to get you your dream home for the lowest price possible.
