cape cod real estate: Nor-easter? Not on the Cape! Come On Down!
- 10/15/10 07:27 AM
Well, the rumors that Cape Cod has blown away have been greatly exaggerated. Yes the winds came. But it is more like a "Winnie the Pooh" blustery day than a storm. The picture below shows a Falmouth beach earlier today, before the sun was completely out.
I like living in a resort! I like the idea that we are remote enough for the weather men/women to mis-predict the weather. So, check here to see a pic every now and then. It is a beautiful day on Cape Cod!

cape cod real estate: Funny Showing Instructions
- 08/17/10 09:01 AM
I had to throw my head back and laugh at this one. WYSIWYG pictures and hilarious showing instructions make this one good for a giggle. The house is in an estate. The contents are strewn throughout, the landscaping hasn't been maintained, and the building needs a BIG hug (TLC).
What made me laugh are the showing instructions that are for other agents and brokers: "Call us to let us know you're going in case we need to send out a search party." The public description is pretty clear for buyers, too. "Why so cheap? Well here's the bad news: It needs lots … (59 comments)

cape cod real estate: Falmouth Street Fair 2010
- 07/14/10 09:23 AM
The Falmouth Street Fair was held today. Between showings and meetings I snapped a few pics. The weather kept many visitors away, but there was still a steady throng of shoppers and eaters.
The pictures below are outside the Robert Paul Properties Falmouth Office, looking up Main Street east toward the harbor, and looking southeast across the library lawn and Main Street. A drizzle has started now at 4:15pm so many of the shoppers are starting to head to their cars and home.
Just one more fun thing to do on the Cape when you come visit!

cape cod real estate: Falmouth Housing Data - 15 Months
- 06/28/10 10:48 AM
Here is some housing market data for Falmouth MA. It shows that there have been twice as many properties coming on the market as have been sold. And the current inventory is almost 1 year. This chart is for Non-Waterfront properties only. While Falmouth has more waterfront that any other town in the country, there are many more homes in Falmouth that are not on the water.
The average list to sale price shows 95%. The only problem I have with that nymber/percentage is that is relative to the listing price at the time it went under agreement. This does not take … (3 comments)

cape cod real estate: Skype Me To See What The Weather Is Like On Main Street In Falmouth On Cape Cod!
- 05/23/10 05:55 AM
Most weather forecasts tell you what they "think" is happening on Cape Cod. My office is on Main Street in Falmouth MA. If you Skype me, I'll give you a live shot of the beautiful day that is on Cape Cod!
We find that the weather forecasters are all on the Boston side of the bridges. Their radar and predictions don't always show the reality of a beautiful Cape Cod day. But a live shot from my Skype connection can!
So if you have a question about the weather on Cape Cod, particularly Falmouth MA, connect on Skype and we'll give … (4 comments)

cape cod real estate: No Smoke Inspections In Falmouth MA Until June 16
- 05/20/10 03:12 AM
I just received a call from the Falmouth fire department informing me that smoke detector inspections in the town of Falmouth MA cannot be scheduled until after June 16 because all the slots are full. On the one had this is good news, because that means that there are lots of closing happening! On the other hand it means that offers have to carefully written.
This may be a temporary blitz because of the end of the tax credit. Or, it could be a good sign that the real estate market has at least stabilized in Falmouth. Or, it cold be the … (0 comments)

cape cod real estate: Cool Cape Cod Pictures
- 05/13/10 09:58 AM
Many people have heard about Cahoon and the Cape Cod art that has mermaids and ships. But I recently saw the website of newer artist who uses photography. He calls his art Night Photography.
On his web site are his own pictures of Cape Cod with a nocturnal perspective. The colors are brilliant. The subjects are from all over the Cape. And there are interesting photos of other subjects, too.
If you are looking for some interesting art, take a look at Tim Little's photographs. His eye and his creativity are very interesting. I particularly like the one of the lighthouse called … (1 comments)

cape cod real estate: Water Water Everywhere! And Lots of It To Drink!
- 04/16/10 06:27 AM
This has been a rainy year on Cape Cod. A report this month from the Cape Cod Commission says that "... Cape water tables are at record highs." It seems that Cape Cod has an unusual abundance of water.
While flooding that has been seen in other parts of the country has not happened here, high water tables do have an impact on real estate. Engineers use the water table levels to plan future projects and to adjust known factors that affect things like septics, sewers, and foundations. The "extra water" causes re-calculation for annual events, or 50 year or 100 year … (3 comments)
