remax: Uh-oh…snow? - 01/02/14 08:49 PM
  Courtesy of the MAR Legal Hotline…
Q. My client owns a multi-family and insists that he has no responsibility for removal of snow except for clearing the sidewalks as required by municipal ordinance. Is he correct?
A. No. The landlord is responsible for removing snow on the property. Many landlords attempt to pass this responsibility onto their tenants by writing a provision into their leases; however, this practice may not protect the landlord from liability.
The Massachusetts Sanitary Code provides that the “owner shall maintain all means of egress in a safe, operable condition” and that all “exterior stairways, fire escapes, … (2 comments)

remax: be HAPPIER in your HOME - 01/01/13 08:43 PM
 
Found this list on apartmenttherapy.com and was inspired! Hopefully it will inspire you t00!
1. Make your bed.
The book The Happiness Project, explains that this three minute task is one of the simplest habits you can adopt to positively impact your happiness.
2. Bring every room back to “ready.”
I learned this trick from Marilyn Paul’s clever book, It’s Hard to Make a Difference When You Can’t Find Your Keys. It’s a known fact: Clutter causes stress; order creates a haven from it. This mood-boosting routine is simple: Take about three minutes to bring each room back to “ready” before you depart … (3 comments)

remax: Stink Bug Invasion! It’s as Bad as You Think - 09/27/12 12:27 AM
  Stink bugs are coming (again)! In fact, they’re already here, and the government is searching for ways to wipe out the little stinkers.
An army of stink bugs has marched into 38 states, and the federal government is scrambling to find ammunition to take them down.
Brown marmorated stink bugs, a Chinese import, are invading homes, orchards, and vineyards; eating fruit, buzzing overhead, and staying warm until they can emerge and lay eggs in spring.
If last year’s stink bug invasion wasn’t bad enough, this fall’s invasion is the second one this year — which presages an even bigger onslaught … (4 comments)

Some stunning trivia about home and habitat… A slide connects all three stories of this house in Japan. Image: LEVEL Architects 1. Google rents goats to do its mowing.
Rather than use gasoline-guzzling, noisy mowers at its Mountain View, Calif., headquarters — the Googleplex — Google has been known to keep its lawn coiffed with rent-a-goats.

remax: Patio Mister Systems to Fit Any Budget - 06/05/12 08:24 PM
  Your outdoor entertainment area can become a horror show in summer. Heat, sun, bugs, and noisy/nosy neighbors can drive you inside when you should be watching fireflies from your patio or deck.
Take back the outside this summer!!
Flagstone patios trap summer sun, so suddenly you and a pepperoni pizza have something in common. Decks become sweatboxes in high humidity—good for losing weight, bad for sipping chilled wine.
Misters are the best way to drop the temperature and raise your comfort level. They spray a fine mist into the air, which evaporates and cools the surrounding air.
