Michele,

I like the local background and stats on Barre, I grew up in the neighboring town of Winchendon.  I know live and work in Orlando, but I'm always following the Worcester County Market!  It is great to see that a market in Massachusetts if very affordable and of course a great buyers market!

If you work in the Winchendo Area let me know I've got a lot of friends and families still up there and I always am looking for a great Realtor to refer my sphere to!

Thank you Jeramie and Debbie! Jeramie, my husband and I spend most of our summer at a campground in Barre, so I am very familiar with that area. We have camped there for other 8 years and love the bike trails and have taken up kayaking. Winchendon is a great area! Love that part of the state! If I can help out your friends, please let me know! Would gladly do a referral!

Have a great weekend!
