Bonnie found a couple of properties for me. I renovated them, and Bonnie sold them for me in a short period of time. Bonnie also was able to find both my current office and a condo that I lease out. She is very personable and can be reached day or night to answer any questions.

Bonnie was great to work with! She helped us quickly find a great house in a competitive market. She advocated for us to negotiate concessions with the seller and get an earlier move in date to fit with our schedule. We’re so happy with our new house and highly recommend working with Bonnie!

Working with Bonnie was a pleasure. We loved getting the daily emails with new listings. We found our house the day it was listed before it showed on any of the real estate web sites that we were following. It was a blessing to have meet Bonnie at her open house. We had been looking for months on our own. After having her as our realtor we found our house in 3 weeks. She goes above and beyond for her clients to find them the house they will love.

Bonnie sat down with us and showed us a workup of several houses in the neighborhood that had sold within a few months of our meeting. She explained how she came up with our selling price. She told us what her strategy was to listing and showing the house on the real estate site and made suggestions for presentation of the interior and exterior of the house.. She was a pleasure to work with. Answered all our questions. Very professional, yet down to earth. We would recommend her.

If your looking for an honest, hard-working, dedicated, and knowledgeable agent then Bonnie is your lady! She made my home buying process so enjoyable! Bonnie was absolutely amazing from beginning to end! I had so many questions and concerns, especially in this year's crazy market. Plus, this is my first time purchasing a home. Bonnie always picked up my calls and/or returned my calls quickly and answered all my questions. She was always honest and upfront. She listened to what I needed and was looking for and set up viewings of homes that fit. We found our dream home and could not be happier. As soon as we closed, I referred my son to Bonnie, and know he is also getting ready to close on his dream home!

I enjoyed working with Bonnie. She was easy to work with and always made sure questions were answered during the transaction. It was a tough transaction but Bonnie and IO worked well together to bring it to the closing table. She went above and beyond for her client to help him in the sale. I would highly recommended working with her in the future.

It was a delight working with Bonnie from our first phone call to this very day! She made everything run smoothly from start to finish! She was especially helpful when I had to relocate out of the area for medical reasons even before the closing! She made things so easy for me. I would work with her again in a minute if I owned other properties and I strongly recommend her to others!!

Every step of the process was made easier because of Bonnie Pagano. Everything that went wrong was corrected right away with her fast thinking. I wanted to buy another home but the seller tried to take my deposit and run with it. My realtor was able to get me my deposit back and we were able to find another home for the same price and negotiations as the previous home I wanted. My new home was found in less than five days, including weekend days. My new home was better than the previous home that I wanted. I was so excited that Bonnie was my looking out for my best interest as her client throughout the whole home owners experience. Although the circumstances caused my buying experience to be terrible with the first house; it was corrected right away on the second house. I also loved how responsive my realtor was via email and phone

Bonnie was incredibly helpful throughout the entire 4 months of searching for a home for my family. She responds almost immediately to any questions/concerns and reaches out to the other entities involved in the sale immediately to figure it out.
She got me scheduled to see every house I sent to her (there were a lot) within days of sending the links. She even continued to schedule with me when I had to start looking in Syracuse instead of Rochester. I loved working with her and would recommend her to anyone!

In all my dealings with Realtors over the past ten years, I have never worked with anyone as helpful and energetic as Bonnie Pagano has been. Without hesitation, I would highly recommend her service to anyone who is looking for an experienced Realtor who cares about getting things done and doing them right! Thanks Bonnie for always paying attention to the details and seeing me through the various purchases and sales.

Where to begin Bonnie was there for us every step of the way. She went above and beyond to be there even though we were not her only clients. She was there for us no matter what time it was or which day. Anxiety comes with buying a house and she literally took that out of the experience. Reassuring us things would be fine(and they were) gave us confidence in her. This is our third home and I have to say if anything, this was the best experience dealing with the whole house buying situation. I highly recommend talking to her if you're selling or buying.

Thank you for everything Bonnie!

I attended a seminar hosted by Bonnie that was very helpful.Bonnie is very knowledgeable about real estate. She is very results-oriented and very responsive. She also knows the ins and outs of the real estate world and whatever she doesn't know, she knows how to find the answers. Working with Bonnie to sell my rental property was smooth and efficient. She went above and beyond what I thought any agent ever would. I can't wait to work with Bonnie again in the future.

Bonnie, there is not one thing that you need to improve on. You were a fantastic realtor from beginning to end of my home purchase. Your follow through, attention and kindness were second to none. I know a lot of realtors in my family and friend circuit and I would have you as a realtor again. I mean it.

I have known Bonnie for many years and when I asked her to sell the property when my uncle passed she was there with me from start to finish. She reviewed the comps in the neighborhood and listed the property in what she thought it would sell for. I valued her knowledge and she made sure we did what was needed to sell the property. Was great working with her. I would definitely recommend her.

I already had a buyer for my house and needed to find a small ranch that was close to grandchildren and available immediately. The house also needed to be in good condition. Bonnie not only found a ranch but helped with some unusual sale negotiations. My new house is great - Thank you to Bonnie Pagano.

I consider Bonnie "my Realtor for life" ! Bonnie represented me twice on the buying side in the last 3.5 years and as a former Realtor from another State, I can honestly say, Bonnie has taught me so much more. It's hard to be brief writing this review so I will highlight a few of the many qualities Bonnie possesses. First and foremost Bonnie is an expert! Highest level of excellence from start to finish! Work ethic second to none! My last search for a home started with three options of the type of home I was looking for. Bonnie was patient as we looked at many properties and competed against many buyers in a tough real estate market at that time. Bonnie was recovering from shoulder surgery and still kept working hard for me. One day she had her neighbor give her a ride to meet me at a house I was interested in because she could not drive while recovering. The very next day I wanted to thoroughly inspect the home before making an offer and her husband drove her and they waited a long time while I inspected the home. I almost didn't put in an offer on the one I now own and love. My opinion was that the property was going to sell higher and Bonnie said it doesn't hurt to put in an offer so I did and the Sellers accepted. Bonnie stated persistence pays off and wow was she right because we nailed a great deal on a great home. I could not be happier!

Finding and purchasing a house, especially in this current market, can be a daunting experience. Bonnie Pagano took the fear out of purchasing a home. Bonnie Pagano walked us through the process, quelled our fears, and answered our questions. Bonnie was easy to talk to. She listened. And, she had the working-knowledge and realtor savvy to guide us through the house-hunting process and land a sale quickly. Her focus was always centered on our best interest. And we got the house of our dreams. Thank you, Bonnie for making our home purchase a pleasant experience.

Bonnie treated us like family from day one! Even during the difficult season of covid-19. Bonnie was there for all our questions and concerns, she never made us feel like we were bothering her. Because of her quick response to see a home we thought might meet our needs, we have the perfect house for our family! I can’t thank her enough! I would recommend Bonnie to any friend or family member.

My wife, Dianne and I were privileged to know and work with a professional with the excellent qualities of Bonne Pagano. We had less than four days to make this deal and Bonnie's knowledge of the area and properties available, expertise in the workings of the current market and advice on making an "excellent" offer to the seller certainly facilitated our successful acquisition of this home. She even did a virtual video tour of both the home and neighborhood while we watched from our house here in East Aurora. We then met at the inspection and all concerns were promptly related to the HOA. Finally, she personally led us to the lawyers office in an area that was then unfamiliar to us. That we were totally pleased with Bonnie is a total understatement. She is a great professional and a credit to her profession.

I was so fortunate to have Bonnie as my buying agent. From day one, I felt we were a team. I could trust Bonnie as an adviser and a friend to help me make decisions, whether they are big or small, AND she was always there for me. Bonnie was my agent for the first time, and she will be my agent of the future.

Bonnie is exactly what one would hope to get as a realtor. She was extremely understanding, helpful and informative throughout the whole process. She was easy to keep in contact with and was never left wondering what the next steps were or what was happening. Her wonderful demeanor and down to earth personality was very refreshing and made the normal stress and such of both buying and selling our house easier to deal with. She was Wonderful to work with. Very Highly Recommend!!!

My husband and I chose Bonnie Pagano for our realtor based on her knowledge, her understanding of our needs, and for her sense of adventure. We were seeking a fixer-upper farmhouse with a barn and some land - within a relatively modest budget. We knew we had a tall, unusual order in this day and age. We also knew that Bonnie was the perfect woman for the task. Despite a lengthy search, Bonnie never gave up on us or our dream. In fact, she was the one to notice that one interesting property in particular dropped significantly in price which allowed us to swoop in and purchase it! We are in love with our historic homestead and can't wait to invite her to our first barn dance!

I have had the great pleasure of working with Bonnie Pagano regarding my recent home purchase in Fairport NY. Bonnie is exceptional in taking care of her clients. It is obvious that she loves what she does and even more obvious that it is of utmost importance to her that she help her clients find exactly the home that they will love. She tirelessly puts all her time and energy into home shopping with her clients. She is always available and makes you feel that you are her top priority. She is attentive to what you are looking for in a home and goes out of her way to make it happen. She is extremely knowledgeable in each and every aspect of the home purchasing process and makes the transition effortless and as smooth as possible. I highly recommend Bonnie for your home purchase - she's the best!

I met Bonnie Pagano last February (2014). By May I was settled into my perfect home. Newly single, looking for a house on my own was a new experience I wasn't sure how to start. Bonnie made me feel comfortable with the process without any pressure. By our third session of tours I was making an offer already. All my concerns were dealt with immediately. Bonnie made the experience so much easier than expected. I would recommend her to anyone looking to buy a house. Thanks Bonnie. I really am enjoying this house!

Bonnie truly embraces her business philosophy of creating strong relationships, responsive customer service, and delivering on her promises. Right from the start she made our needs her top priority. She coached us on how to prepare our house to obtain a number of strong offers that accommodated our unique needs. On the flip side, she culled through various listings to find a buying opportunity that was just the right fit for us. I can't say enough about Bonnie making this stressful time more manageable. She's a great asset to have on your team.

Mark Nassivera recommends Empire Realty Group: "My Wife and I worked with Bonnie Pagano and she was an absolute blessing from the time we introduced ourselves and beyond closing on our first home. With experience that clearly showed, she came equipped with excellent resources that completely satisfied us during the home buying process, from financing recommendations to lawyers and inspectors, we always felt well informed and never pressured. Starting the process seemed overwhelming, but it turned out to be enjoyable and informative because we had such professional representation that made us feel confident and secure. Thank you Empire Realty and Thank you Bonnie!"

Bonnie, thank you so much for all of your hard work in helping me secure my first home! From quickly responding to my inquiry, to pointing me towards other quality people (lender, attorney, inspector); your professionalism helped the entire process run very smooth. I was half-expecting purchasing a home to be much more chaotic. Anyway, I am thoroughly enjoying the place now and I will certainly keep you in mind for any future real estate needs.

We want to thank Bonnie Pagano, from Empire Realty Group for finding us a home. We moved to Penfield from Southern California in September. Bonnie was able to setup viewing of 10 homes , in a short time, as I only had 72 hours to work with. All of the homes were what we were looking for. She was amazing as she knew what we were looking for, with only some picks from the internet that we gave her, over the phone. Bonnie had great knowledge of the neighborhoods with all the good and bad points of the areas. Bonnie guided us through the purchase and paperwork that goes with home buying. She has been wonderful in the follow up and very helpful with questions we had. We would highly recommend Bonnie for selling or purchasing a home.

Bonnie was amazing to work with and was such a pleasure--she is very knowledgeable and hands-on during the entire process. She was so easy to work with and truly was a confidant for my husband and I with all of our questions and concerns. She truly acted in our best interest on our sale and purchase, and was honest and straight forward with us every step of the way. She provided great insights and points when looking at houses that we wouldn't have even considered, and even during the most stressful part of our purchase and sale, she was on top of everything and did all of the legwork getting everything taken care of, no matter how unexpected the situation was. Bonnie was very involved in every step of the process and was super easy to get ahold of and communicate with. She facilitated status updates and made sure we were informed on everything going on as it was going on. Bonnie truly was a God-send for us and we were so incredibly lucky to have her as our agent. We highly recommend Bonnie to anyone who is looking for a realtor!

Best realtor experience ever, Bonnie helped me find and purchase my first home, to then turn around and sell it 1.5 yrs later.
