The latest numbers on the local housing market show increased activity in the Rochester area.
The COVID-19 pandemic has certainly had an impact on local housing sales, as it has on just about every other part of the economy. While local home sales are down 12.9% year-to-date compared to last year, Andy Kachaylo, president of the Greater Rochester Association of Realtors, said that activity has been picking up in recent months. September home sales were up 2.6% compared to a year ago.
