When a well priced, desirable home comes on to the market, it can attract a lot of attention and subsequently multiple offers.

Many of our clients tend to shy away from offer situations where they will have to compete against other buyers, but there is no reason to be apprehensive. Armed with a little knowledge and a good, experienced agent you'll be well equipped to handle anything.

Back then the largest employer in Acton was the Beardmore Tannery which opened its doors for business in 1865. … (0 comments)
Moving to Acton still holds a certain stigma in the eyes of many Georgetown residents. When we as realtors, suggest Acton as a possibility we're almost always met with an indignant "Acton? I'd be embarrassed to live there!"
True, Acton has held the reputation as being working class and stinky (due to the tanning of leather, long ago at a factory where the Olde Hide House is currently located) but things have changed a lot since then and Acton is definitely worth another look.
