Opportunity "Knocks Three Times" for pre-qualified buyers with these three must see homes!

I can tell the fall is fast approaching as home showings are definitely picking up.  When a you are looking for a new home, whether it be your first or not, it is always a good idea to make sure you are pre-approved for a mortgage loan.  You will benefit as the consumer by knowing exactly what you can afford.  Prequalification also gives you an advantage during negotiations with the current homeowner as it shows your financial strength and ability to close the deal without any financing contingencies.

To become pre-approved for a loan, contact me today and I’ll help you get the ball rolling! If you are already pre-approved and looking for a new home, I have three great must see opportunities for you this weekend.

What South Shore Town has the best 4th of July Fireworks?

I have been a bit of a history buff since I was first exposed to it in grade school.  I can remember a particular book fair in the third grade where I bought five paperback books and three of them were about George Washington and the American Revolution.  My love of United States history continues to fascinate me to this day so the Fourth of July celebrations hold a special place in my heart. 

See 2013 4th of July Fireworks for the South of Boston

We are lucky to be living in the birth place of the American Revolution and Boston, and the south shore, played a part in this great event.  Boston, where I grew up and went to school, is home to the earliest stirrings of freedom, the first fireworks, if you will allow me the pun.  Quincy was the birthplace and the home of John and John Quincy Adams, which we can visit today.  Abagail Adams was born in Weymouth, John Hancock was born in Braintree.  Benjamin Lincoln, who accepted the surrender of the British army at Yorktown, was born in Hingham. These are just a few of the many people and families who played a role in the creation of the greatest country the world has ever known.



On the Fourth of July, we celebrate freedom with our families, friends and neighbors.  Cookouts will be held at homes all over the south shore and after that, July 4th fireworks! I can not think of another event that brings not only families together, but entire communities!  We gather as one in our town to remember the sacrifices made on our behalf  by our forefathers (and mothers)!  What makes it so special is that we are with family, friends and neighbors in our small towns on the south shore.  It is another reminder of what makes buying a home and living on the south shore so rewarding.

However, there is the little matter of home town pride and which south shore town has the best 4th of July fireworks?  I have been to most and don't think I can pick as each town holds a special remembrance for me.  Here is a list of fireworks for the Fourth of July 2012; see how many you can make and decide which south shore town is home to the best fireworks!
