Lower price points, suburban amenities and proximity to Buffalo
If you want to live in the Paramount neighborhood of Tonawanda, New York, you’ve got to move fast. Homes here typically sell after 11 days on the market compared to 39 days nationwide. “Things are still flying off the market here,” says Kathyrn “Trina” Schiavitti, a licensed real estate salesperson with HUNT Real Estate ERA, who grew up in the area. “It’s because of the price point. It’s really affordable and there’s a shortage of real estate.”
In addition to housing prices that are well below the national average, Paramount offers a quiet, suburban vibe and proximity to work or play in Buffalo. “It’s close to Buffalo, but it’s still the suburbs,” Schiavitti says. “A lot of people who live here work in Buffalo. It’s just a 15-minute commute to downtown.”
