Teri Kraszewski Lic. Assoc. RE Broker Licensed Associate Real Estate Broker
For more than 20 years, I have had the privilege of helping individuals and families navigate one of the most important financial and personal decisions of their lives. Real estate is so much more than buying or selling a home, it is about new beginnings, building wealth, creating memories, and achieving dreams. That responsibility is one I never take lightly.
My passion for helping people, combined with my unwavering commitment to exceptional service, has allowed me to build a reputation as a trusted real estate advisor throughout the Capital Region. I believe that every client deserves honest guidance, expert market knowledge, strong advocacy, and a professional they can rely on from the first conversation through closing, and long after the transaction is complete.
Whether you're purchasing your first home, upgrading to accommodate a growing family, downsizing into your next chapter, or preparing to sell one of your largest assets, my goal is to make the process as seamless and stress-free as possible. I understand that every client has unique goals, and I take the time to truly listen, educate, and develop a strategy tailored to their needs. I pride myself on providing clear communication, attention to detail, and skilled negotiation to help my clients achieve the best possible outcome.
Success in real estate isn't measured by the number of homes sold, it's measured by the trust my clients place in me and the relationships that continue long after closing day. Many of my clients become lifelong friends, and their referrals are the greatest compliment I can receive. Those lasting relationships are the foundation of my business.
As the real estate market continues to evolve, I remain committed to staying ahead of industry trends, leveraging innovative marketing strategies, embracing the latest technology, and continually expanding my knowledge. My clients deserve a professional who is always learning, always adapting, and always working to provide them with a competitive advantage.
Prior to my career in real estate, I earned a degree in Interior Design, which gives me a unique perspective when helping buyers envision a home's potential and advising sellers on how to maximize their home's appeal. That creative background, combined with two decades of real estate experience, allows me to offer clients guidance that goes far beyond the traditional role of an agent.
Family is at the center of everything I do. My husband, Mike, and I have been together since high school and are proud parents of two sons. My oldest son, Tyler, is a licensed real estate salesperson and a valued member of the Teri Kraszewski Team. He was honored with Howard Hanna's Rising Star Award, and I couldn't be more proud to work alongside him. Our youngest son, Andrew, is exploring the exciting opportunities that lie ahead. Completing our family is our beloved dog, Kaia, who is thoroughly spoiled and keeps us smiling every day.
When I'm not helping clients, you'll often find me spending time with family and friends, enjoying Saratoga Lake, cheering on soccer games, or discovering great local restaurants and shops.
Helping people achieve their real estate goals isn't just my career, it's my passion. I am grateful for the trust my clients place in me and am committed to providing every buyer and seller with the expertise, dedication, and personal attention they deserve. Whether you're buying your first home, selling your forever home, or simply looking for trusted real estate advice, I would be honored to guide you every step of the way.

Reflections on 2025
It’s that time again! While we wait out this frigid winter I like to pause and look back at the market we’ve just experienced—and share a few thoughts on what the coming year may bring. Many of you have been reading these letters for quite some time now. While I certainly can’t predict our real estate future, my 20+ years as a Realtor with Howard Hanna have given me a solid understanding of trends and the ability to offer informed guidance to my clients.
Our current job market is strong with overall growth in the healthcare, high-tech/semiconductors and government sectors. On the housing front, home values have climbed steadily for more than five years, and I don’t anticipate any meaningful downturn ahead. In 2025, the average sale price of a single-family home reached $400,971, an 8.7% increase over the previous year. Continuing the trend of positive appreciation our region has experienced for approximately six to seven years, with a significant acceleration in growth beginning around the start of the COVID-19 pandemic (2019–2020). While appreciation was steadier prior to 2020, the market has seen sustained, often double-digit, percentage increases in home values and median sale prices through 2025.
There were 9,746 closed single-family sales in 2025, slightly more than 2024 but significantly less than 2021's 13,485 sales. The primary reason for this drop is interest rates. In 2021, 30-year mortgage rates hovered around 3%. Last year, they spent most of their time in the mid-6% range. Understandably, many homeowners chose to stay put rather than trade a low rate for one that’s double. Adding to this is the rising cost of new construction. While prices across the board have increased, new builds have surged even more, with very few starting under $500,000.
