Post-Labor Day brought a real surge—and Christine is feeling it. In this episode, Christine O’Connell More and guest co-host Matt Masur unpack why the phones are ringing off the hook and how Central New York’s market is shifting as Micron moves toward breaking ground. They cover what a $100B investment and an estimated 40,000 related jobs could mean for industrial space, housing pressure, and the “show-me” moment when shovels hit dirt.

You’ll hear:

• Why early fall is historically “back to business” for buyers, sellers, and investors
• Housing realities: tight inventory, rising rents (with Oswego County leading increases), and how “workforce housing” set-asides work
• Creative solutions gaining traction—accessory/in-law units, manufactured/factory-built homes, and proposed rental houses to help newcomers land softly
• Notable local projects, from Township 5’s planned expansion to affordable infill and land bank redevelopment on Syracuse’s South Side
• Flipping trends (Albany and Syracuse are on the national leaderboard) now that materials costs have stabilized
• Christine’s “Listing of the Month”: a flexible, design-forward office on Syracuse’s historic Auto Row with a long-term cell-tower lease and standout amenities

Plus, a quick preview of Christine’s live talk on “lease vs. buy” for business owners—and upcoming guest spotlights with local developers and investors. If you care about where Central New York is headed over the next decade, this one’s a must-listen.
