I recently had the opportunity to help a client look for a new home in Allentown.  I always knew this was a popular area for artists, but what I did not realize is how beautiful this neighborhood has become and how popular it had become with all types of people.  Singles, families, retirees, etc....

Here is another great example of how generous the people of Western New York can be.  No matter how hard times are and how high unemployment is, we always find a way to band together and help out a neighbor.  Three weeks ago, downtown lunchers started lining up for fantastic Mexican food at a new...
