Starting this summer, Somerville residents will be able to recycle textiles (aka cloth) — either curbside, or in dedicated bins. All clothing, shoes, and accessories will be picked up on the curb on your regular trash day. You can also use the bins located throughout the city of Somerville at any time.
With April 15 fast approaching, taxpayers are gathering receipts and official forms and filling out tax returns (or else there’s some serious procrastination going on). We want to remind homeowners that a myriad of tax breaks exist if you own a home–so don’t forget to take your rightful deductions!
How much could you save in property taxes with the residential exemption?
Happy International Women’s Day! Today, we celebrate the contributions of women all over the world. But because we’re Liz & Ellie Local, we are highlighting the incredible life of Cambridge’s first Black school principal, Maria Baldwin. Our very own Liz Lyster sits on the Cambridge Historical Commission, and she shared with us that Maria Baldwin’s home on 194-196 Prospect Street was approved as Cambridge’s 43rd designated landmark during their recent meeting. This means that the publicly-visible exterior of the home is protected from alterations, and the home will be preserved as an important part of Cambridge’s history. It also means that people need to know what Maria Baldwin accomplished that drove this landmark designation. Her story does not disappoint.
With their complementary communication styles, responsiveness, competence, and ability to truly listen, Ellie and Liz enable their clients to feel at ease throughout any real estate transaction. They would welcome the opportunity to be your next real estate advisors.
