" Marney has been great to work with. As a real estate investor you have to get into houses quickly. She is always accommodating and get me in quickly. She has great expertise in the real estate market and market trends. I would recommended her highly to anyone looking to buy or sell their home. "

- Kevin Briceland (Real estate investor)

" Marney was absolutely wonderful to work with! She was readily available and responsive to all of our questions, was very knowledgable in general about the homes we toured and potential issues that we could encounter with each. She was patient and explained the steps of the home buying process clearly. Would strongly recommend her services! "

- Rachel

" We bought sight unseen from across the country and Marney did such an amazing job for us. Against all the odds and hearing nothing but doubt from everyone we had talked to, Marney stepped in and got us everything we wanted. Can’t recommend enough, THANK you Marney! "

- Victoria Frost

" Marney Horvath went above and beyond as I purchased my house in Rochester. Living in New Jersey, I didn’t have the connections for lawyers and contractors- Marney set me up with a lawyer, inspector, plumber, electrician, even carpet cleaners! She worked with my crazy schedule to make sure everything was perfect. I would recommend her as an agent to everyone looking to do any real estate transaction in the Rochester area!!! "

- Marj Mottola

" Marney was so responsive, helpful, patient and encouraging. I was grateful for the expertise she has, she made the process of purchasing our house go smoothly by making sure we understood all the important details. "

- Beth Powell

" Marney helped our non-profit navigate a very complicated sale of a residential property that was given to us through a bequest; she was great to work with and can handle anything with calm, timeliness, and precision! "

- Peter Mottola

" Marney really knew her stuff. She was knowledgeable and helpful on all aspects of my house buying process. She knew the neighborhood and the market. She was there to do the bidding and helped me know how high to go, increasing the bidding by a set amt to our predetermined limit to win the house. She was there when the engineer walked through with me. Marney went out of her way to make things easy for me. She was so approachable and responsive. Any question I thought of, I texted her and got an answer. She made everything clear to me and pointed out both assets and flaws in my house before the buy. She was cheerful and encouraging. She handled the hand off wonderfully and I always knew she was on my side. Marney covered all the bases, and was always there when I needed her. It was a pleasure to rely on Marney in this stressful house buying market. I recommend her without reservation. "

- Bobbie Scherer

" Marney was wonderful! She was responsive, flexible, considerate, and generous with her time. I was able to ask questions and receive a clear response and explanation. I recommend her highly! "

- Susan Meck

" Marney was absolutely fantastic as a realtor. Our family had all sorts of complications and delays with moving from the west coast to the east coast and she helped us out through it all, even connecting us with a place to rent while we were searching for the house we would eventually buy. She did not rush us in the process at all; it took us 10 months to find the right place for us. 10/10 cannot recommend her enough. Even the attorney at closing commented on how thorough she was. "

- Thomas Keeton

" My husband and I have worked with many realtors and I have to say Marney was a fantastic connection! Our situation is a bit complicated, moving from Tennessee to Rochester for grandkids, yet the timing was up in the air because Jon was not yet retired. She was so patient and flexible with us, even doing a FaceTime showing with us. She answered a lot of questions via email, text, and phone, and was always so kind. We were also very impressed with her knowledge of the area and understanding of our needs. I could not recommend her more—she’s the best!! Thanks so much, Marney! "

- Claudia Thorndike

" From start to finish Marney gave me peace and clarity around the process of buying my first home. She responded quickly to questions I had, coordinated meetings, always arrived promptly, and offered straightforward options when I was faced difficult decisions. I would recommend Marney to anyone buying a home, and will certainly be reaching out to her again down the road. "

- David Scherer

" Marney was great!! She did a lot of the local leg-work as we were buying and relocating from out of state. She helped us navigate a competitive market and was always available to answer questions. "

- Katherine Fitzsimmons

" Marney was fantastic! She helped us to buy a house in a really challenging market from out of state. She was great to work with, quick and knowledgeable about everything involved. Marney is family-oriented, patient, kind, really smart, and she has great people skills. She even paid for an unexpected garage door repair as we were moving in! You can't find a better real estate pro in Rochester/ Finger Lakes. Highly recommended! "

- Jonathan Thorndike

" Marney Horvath was so helpful to us as we bought our first home! She scheduled our walkthroughs, guided us through the buying process, kept us updated by text, and made calls to make sure everything was moving along smoothly. We made an offer at asking price, it was accepted, and we closed on the scheduled closing date! Marney was friendly, available, and quick to respond to questions. She made this process less scary and confusing for us. We highly recommend Marney! "

- Kate Dominguez

" Marney consistently went above and beyond in my search for a new home. I moved to the Rochester area from out of state to be closer to my daughter, and really had no idea where to start. It’s been years since I’ve had to go through buying or selling a home. Marney took the time to understand my needs, was incredibly thoughtful in the properties she found and made me feel at ease through the whole process. I really appreciate her local knowledge, and guiding me through purchasing the perfect home for me. I can not recommend her highly enough. "

- Karen Carnegie Fraser

" Marney was a huge help through the process of buying my first home. She was quick to schedule tours of multiple homes, very responsive to questions by text or phone throughout the buying process, and a fantastic resource for contacts including my mortgage originator and attorney. She was friendly, professional, and very determined to help me find a house - I would highly recommend her services! "

- Kevin Russell

" Marney is patient and thorough. She always responds to my questions in very little time. She has connections to loan officers who are also quick to respond so that one can quickly find out if a house is affordable and have a loan in place when it's time to make a bid. Marney showed me many houses before I found the one that suits me perfectly and her manner in working with other realtors or homeowners impressed me each time. I highly recommend her to anyone who is in the market to buy a house in the current housing market. "

- Bernard J Heveron

" This was my first time buying a house. I was expecting a lot of hassle and pressure and anxiety, but Marney is such a sure hand at this that she made the entire process a joy. She went above and beyond the call of duty on almost every point – if I ever buy another house, she is whom I want to work with. "

- Theodore Janiszewski

" As a first time homebuyer I highly recommend working with Marney. As my realtor, she made me feel informed and comfortable throughout the entire process. I couldn’t be happier with my new home! "

- Emily Monczynski

" Marney did a fantastic job. She is very professional and knowledgable. She helped me through the whole home buying process and answered all of my questions in a timely manner. I would recommend her to anyone looking to purchase a home. I don't think I would have been successful in purchasing this home without her. "

- Eric Willing (Distribution Supervisor)

" Marney was a critical player in the success of the purchase of our home. She has an extensive knowledge of the local market and was able to lean on this experience to help us craft an offer. Our offer was accepted based on how we catered our proposal and not by paying more than the runner up. After our bid was accepted, she referred a lawyer for closing. This made for a smooth and seamless experience from start to finish. Marney was prompt to reply to our list of sporadic questions throughout the process which gave us confidence that we chose the right agent. I can't refer her enough. Thanks for all your help, Marney! "

- Andrew Yatteau (Founder/COO)

" I really enjoyed working with Marney to find a house. She helped me through every step of the process from finding the perfect home to closing. I highly recommend Marney. She is thorough and will provide you with detailed information on each house. "

- Michael Mattina

" Marney was of great help to me buying my first home. I had no idea of the dynamics required to successfully close a home (given my first time purchase and being out of state!) She helped me secure financing, legal representation, prep negotiation and also helped with all the small things along the way. I’d highly recommend her to anyone! "

- Steven Michalkow

" Marney did a phenomenal job selling our house. She guided us through the process and gave us suggestions for putting it on the market. Ultimately we had 5 offers the first weekend! Marney helped us traverse each challenge we faced (and a couple challenges sure came up!) but she was professional and dedicated to selling our house - always staying in communication. We would recommend Marney to our friends and family if they are buying or selling a house. I’d give her more than 5 stars if I could! "

- Luann Meyer

" My husband and I have made multiple house purchases over the years and one of the things we’ve learned is a good real-estate agent is worth their weight in gold. This real-estate market has been a ridiculous one to put offers in on. We bid on two houses prior to this one and each time Marney patiently walked us through the process and let us know tactfully how confident she was (or wasn’t) in our offer. In the meantime we’re hearing stories from friends of getting offers rejected the 10th, 15th or 20th time. We strategized on the house we bought and managed a winning bid. We overcame issues of being overseas for the closing date, being on an opposite time schedule based on the time zone and managed to close on the house. Normally this would be where your interaction with a real-estate agent might end. But Marney has been helping us out with setting up people to look at the basement so we can finish it, (spending her own time setting people up and walking them through the house). She also came in to the house and found the electric company hadn’t turned on the power like they were supposed to and found 5” of water in the basement (this could’ve been such a nightmare). But she called in all sorts of people to our aid and even spent hours in our basement shop-vacuuming out the water with her husband. She did all this for strangers. You don’t meet people like this often anymore. If there is one real estate agent I can recommend without a second thought it’s Marney. Hire her now or just go with the second best. "

- Jessica Denzer

" Marney was great and patient. Was able to get me into showings, even on short notice. She was not pushy and communicating was great and she was quick to respond back. She followed up with lawyers as well to get the closing completed. Would highly recommend Marney for your home buying or selling needs. "
