single family homes: It's all about you - 05/15/14 02:50 AM
"It's all about you," is a phrase I have used for years at the end of all my emails.  Only every once in a while do I get someone who takes issue with it.  I will get an email back with indignant and accusatory language.  How dare you say it's all about me, it's all about you ass****.  Was one such snappy retort.  It stopped me in my tracks.  I know that email and writing in general does not carry the intent and feeling of a face to face conversation, lots is lost in the way people read your words.  Lots depends … (2 comments)

single family homes: Milton, MA 02186 Annual State of the Market - 12/25/12 08:02 PM

Wayland, MA 01778 Single Family Housing Report October 2011 Wayland has 121 homes actively in the market right now.  Of those, like most surrounding communities Wayland has more houses in the Active stage than in any of the other stages, like Sold or Under Agreement.  Wayland is a town that has $18 million dollar homes on the same market with a home that is less than $100,000.
