Selling

Our daily calendars show just how much we do as real estate agents—we meet with clients, talk on the phone, return texts and emails, and take care of countless details. But taking a step back shows us that real estate runs more on a weekly cycle than on a day-to-day basis. If you’re thinking about buying or selling, read on to understand how the gears in the real estate cycle work. If you understand the housing market’s schedule, you’ll be ready to master that market and achieve your goals.
As urban areas continue to expand and temperatures rise due to climate change, the need for effective shade in cities has become too much to ignore. Cambridge, Somerville and suburban towns have begun the strategic use of trees and canopies. I think these options offer a powerful solution to provide relief from excessive heat and sunlight.

It’s really starting to feel like summer out there! This past weekend’s weather was glorious, and that rain on Sunday morning seems to have made all the plants grow a foot and start to bloom. Here’s what part of my back garden looks like today. The rhododendrons and azaleas give the perfect backdrop for my re-seeded foxgloves (thank you, Burpee catalog, for the seeds I bought during a Covid-fueled haze two years ago). As beautiful as this part of my yard looks, though, my front stoop’s containers are sadly empty. That means it’s time to procure something beautiful to jazz up my entrance! Any real estate advisor will tell you that “curb appeal” pulls a lot of weight with potential buyers. That also means that even if you’re not selling your home anytime soon, pretty flowers and plants will wow passersby and make you relish coming home to your little oasis this summer.
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.
