What My Clients Say

Don’t just take my word for it — hear from the families I’ve helped find their perfect home.

★★★★★
"I couldn’t have asked for a better real estate agent than Candace. She impressed me with her knowledge of the Rochester market and a clear strategy for listing my home. Candace didn’t hesitate to literally get her hands dirty prepping the yard before photos. We had a packed open house, lots of private showings, and multiple offers on the table."
Lindsay

★★★★★
"There’s not many words to describe how AMAZING Candace is. My husband and I never have bought a house before, let alone understood the process. She broke it all down for us and helped us every step of the way! Most importantly in this insane market our only our SECOND offer was accepted. She truly did make finding a house in this terrible time so fun and enjoyable."
First-Time Buyers
Monroe County, NY
★★★★★
"Candace came highly recommended and she was hands down the best realtor I’ve ever worked with. She was ON IT! It took a while because we were contingent on selling our prior home and she never gave up on us. She has incredible attention to detail. Hire Candace and you’ll know you are with someone whose heart is in this."

Giving Back to Our Community

Real estate is about more than transactions — it’s about building stronger communities. A portion of every commission goes directly to causes I care about.

A Commission That Gives Back

I donate a portion of every real estate commission to the Ronald McDonald House Charities, supporting families with critically ill children. When you work with me, you’re also helping families in our community during their most difficult times.
