Why Work With Around Syracuse Realty?

We know the Central New York real estate market like the back of our hand!

At Around Syracuse Realty, we're not just licensed — we're trained, coached, and connected at a national level.

Our strategies are backed by systems used to coach Fortune 500 companies, and our national agent network means your property gains exposure far beyond Central New York.


We don’t just “help you buy a house” or “list a property.” We decode market trends, analyze offers with surgical precision, and guide you like your equity depends on it — because it does.


This is where average agents get it wrong:

They miss negotiation leverage. They gloss over inspection red flags. They let emotion drive bad deals. That’s not us.


We're a full-service brokerage that handles everything: strategic marketing, home prep consulting, negotiation psychology, and contract navigation. We’re here to protect your money and your peace of mind.


More than anything, our obsession is helping people

move forward in life

— not just in real estate. Whether you’re exploring your options, downsizing, relocating, or investing, we bring clarity, calm, and confidence to the process.


We’re not chasing volume. We’re raising the bar.


If you’re tired of generic sales pitches and want real results from real professionals — let’s connect.

Coffee’s always on us.


"Gwenn McDonald Stood out as the clear choice from the outset."

"
We interviewed a number of listing agents to assist with the sale of our Syracuse home. Gwen McDonald from Around Syracuse Realty stood out as the clear choice from the outset. Not only did she present an impressive strategy to sell our home, her overall knowledge of the local market as well as current market conditions instilled in us the confidence that we were in good hands. She guided us through the preparation for showing right through choosing the right offer all the way up to closing with a level of professionalism that made the process as painless as possible. We found her to be a true advocate for our interests and would recommend her without hesitation. We also felt very good about supporting a locally owned agency over a corporate entity.1

Gwenn was incredible!
She is an extremely knowledgeable real estate professional. Selling your house can be very stressful, however, Gwenn puts you at ease as she handles all that’s necessary for the sale. I highly recommend Gwenn McDonald as your real estate agent. I would not have any other agent assist me in selling my house.
