Just Sold!

December 15, 2015

Oh it was such a busy fall now that we are coming into what is supposed to winter I can finally catch up on my Just Sold and Just Listed blogs.  I know I know…bad Amy.  It makes the to-do list and then working with my clients to get to “sold” and “listed” takes priority!

20150813_135033I was super happy to sell 41 Sunderland Rd this week!  My seller purchased the house with me several years ago as a foreclosure for his daughter to go to college in the area.  With some elbow grease he had a wonderful home for her and realized a great return!  Congrats Pete and Dana!

 

20151017_094121And the first of the triple Framingham condos closed!  My great new clients have (had) three condos in the same complex that they have been renting out for years.  In the hustle and bustle of raising of a family and working they decide to SIMPLIFY and sell off the investment properties.  Congrats to Adam and Paula for selling the first of the three (the other two are under agreement) at 131 Mellen in Framingham!

With several successful home inspections for my buyers this past week and a new short sale approved listing coming up I will definitely have more to say!  (Wait…do I ever NOT have anything to say?)

Enjoy the day!

 

 

Tiny Houses!

December 8, 2015

tiny house 1Who loves a tiny house?  LOTS OF PEOPLE NOW!  Why?  They are economical to heat and cool, cheaper to build, take up less land space so you have a larger yard on a smaller lot, can contain a ton of character and are a new trend in the housing industry.

Small houses may emphasize design over size, utilize dual purpose features and multi-functional furniture, and incorporate technological advances of space saving equipment and appliances. Vertical space optimization is also a common feature of small houses.

Condo without the fees!

Yep!  Live in a condo that feels like a single family without any fees!  I have two great properties in Hopedale that scream opportunity for either the first time home buyer or an investor looking for a new rental property.  Both have great rental history and are ready to have a face lift and a new life!  Being across the street from each other makes them easy to manage.

Antique Colonial? Barn? USDA?

December 8, 2015

20150806_133344What more could you be looking for than a renovated antique colonial in an USDA eligible location with a spacious yard, garage and large two story barn with electric?

I’m not sure what else you could want for this price but this house is amazing!  So much original detail exists with the sweeping front entrance stair case.  Original wood pocket doors to the study with fireplace.  Front to back living room with pellet stove to keep you warm in the winter but with an exterior sun porch for the coming spring/summer nights.  Formal dining room with pantry and large kitchen with sliders to the back deck and swimming pool.

6 bedrooms and 2.5 baths complete this grand queen that has been with us since 1855!  She also features an updated furnace, blown in insulation, vinyl siding and a full basement with soaring high ceilings!  If you want SPACE for both your family and your hobbies – here you are!

What more would you be looking for?
