About David

David Young, born and raised in Central New York, has been passionate about sales and entrepreneurship since he was a child. Graduating from Mynderse Academy in Seneca Falls, he went on to study business at Cayuga Community College and SUNY Potsdam. David’s entrepreneurial journey began at age nine when he would “borrow” vegetables from his parents’ garden and sell them at his makeshift stand, "Dave’s Veggies," marking the start of a lifelong career in sales. Even then, David dreamed of one day owning his own company, and he spent his childhood envisioning what he would build. In 2002, while still attending college, David obtained his Real Estate Salesperson license and immediately made waves as one of the youngest and most successful agents in the region, working with prominent firms across New York State. His big break came in 2003 when he joined a large commercial brokerage under the mentorship of John Bouck in Auburn, who took David under his wing. John taught him everything about real estate, from appraisals to the intricacies of commercial properties. David often recalls sitting outside John's office, carefully listening to every word of his client calls, learning invaluable skills that would later set him apart in the industry. John’s mentorship inspired David’s unique style—a balanced approach to aggressive negotiation combined with attentive customer care. Throughout his career, David built deep expertise in residential sales, complex commercial transactions, leasing, and property management, allowing him to expand his services and market his company statewide. His vast knowledge of New York’s real estate landscape equips clients with invaluable insight into property values, market trends, and strategic investments, establishing him as a highly respected broker across the state. In 2012, David fulfilled his dream by founding The Young Agency, a full-service real estate and property management firm. With a $3,000 loan from his grandparents, he rented a small, 300-square-foot office near a machine shop and bought three real estate signs and a simple website. He launched the company solo, determined to make a mark on his hometown of Seneca Falls. Shortly after, his mother, MaryAnn, joined him as his first licensed agent, and together, they grew the agency. The Young Agency quickly gained traction and became one of the most recognizable brands in the Finger Lakes. By 2021, with business flourishing, David decided to split off the property management segment into a separate entity, Young Agency Property Management, LLC, which his wife, Jennifer, now operates fully. David has also established himself as a successful real estate investor, building a diverse portfolio of commercial and residential properties and helping countless investors find success with their own properties. His guidance has enabled many new investors to navigate the complexities of ownership and profitably grow their portfolios. Outside of his work, David treasures time with his wife, Jennifer, and their son, Sully. The Young family enjoys a peaceful life in the countryside, where they keep two horses and have ample space for their dog, Lacey, to roam. David is also an active member of his community and once served a role on several local boards, including the Auburn BID, IGNITE for Young Professionals, and the House of Concern, which provides essential services and support to local families in need. David’s genuine love for real estate, combined with his dedication to delivering the highest level of service, sets him apart. His passion, perseverance, and humility have been the foundation of his success, and his mentorship has inspired countless agents and clients alike. David believes in chasing one’s dreams and giving back to the industry that helped him realize his own. He’s excited for what the future holds and remains committed to reaching new heights in the ever-evolving world of real estate.

Assisted in getting full asking price and kept in communication every step of the way! As this was my first time selling a home they were an incredible asset.

Always available to guide me through the purchase process

Questions I had throughout the process were answered in a timely manner and the walkthroughs helped to address any concerns I had before the purchase was finalized. David and his agency's knowledge and experience were key factors in getting the purchase done and at a fair price. Would recommend The Young Agency to someone looking to buy or sell in todays market.

We took a chance on each other and we both won !

We took a chance on each other and we both won !

We don't want to make this long and drawn out (because there are so many positive points), we'll give you what we feel was most important. David and Stephanie showed up for the initial meeting fully prepared. After a walk through, he showed us comps then put them away. He described our home in a way the first agent did even see, and gave us the listing price from his perspective. It was $180k more than the first quote. We asked, besides price, why we should contract with him and he gave us all the reasons. He is seasoned, professional and on his game. We couldn't have chosen a better team. Personally. I struggled immensely with selling the home we built ourselves. They supported me every step of the way, not sure they will know how much it meant. They kept their word on absolutely everything. You can't find that anywhere.

We sold our home!

We finally found and bought our small ranch. So we needed to sell our home fast. David sold it in 4 days! We were relieved and excited. No problems! Thank you!

Been a long couple of years

Been a long couple of years

It has been a long process for sure. Any house that came up on the market that we were interested in David made sure we were always able to view it in a timely fashion. Sometimes with different agents but we always got to decide to make an offer in a timely fashion. Mary Ann was the best. Very knowledgeable and informative on homes. We lost out on several houses due to the over bidding, we were never discouraged because we knew that one day it would happen. We had a great support team. MaryAnn and David made it happen on the home we now live in. They are both very knowledgeable. David went above and beyond with every little detail. We closed just before a big snow storm and a few weeks a freezing cold temperatures. David continued to help us after closing to ensure we could get into our new home. For that my husband and I are very grateful.
