Why We Do What We Do
Committed to Community through Property Stewardship
My heart is deeply connected to this city, and it’s hard to see neglected properties, struggling neighborhoods, and families without safe, quality housing. No one should live on a street that doesn’t feel like a community.
At Skinner Properties, we believe loving our city means taking action. That’s why we focus on renovating and restoring homes—bringing pride, safety, and new life back to each block. Every project is an opportunity to turn something overlooked into a place someone is proud to call home.
The challenges are real, but so is our commitment. By investing in quality renovations and working alongside the community, we’re helping rebuild neighborhoods—one home at a time.

Stephen’s broad experience as a small business owner, ambassador, and incubator gives him a deep understanding of the needs of his community.

For over 25 years, Skinner Properties has been restoring homes and strengthening communities across Syracuse’s Eastwood neighborhood. We manage residential and commercial units—both long-term and short-term rentals—with local maintenance teams ready to support your maintenence needs. But we do more than manage buildings. We believe that well-maintained properties create safer streets, stronger businesses, and neighborhoods where people feel they belong. Our office is located on James Street in the heart of the Eastwood business district, putting us right where our community is.
