A Swansea MA home buyer should receive a brochure, Home Inspectors Facts for Consumers Sheet, at the time of the signing of the first written contract to purchase. A standard home inspection in Massachusetts is a visual examination of the physical structure and major interior systems of a residential building consisting of one to four dwelling units. It should be understood that there are certain risks inherent in the purchase of property and a home inspection is inherently limited in its scope and depth. The information gained from home inspection conforming to the Massachusetts Home Inspector Standards of Practice may reduce some of those risks, but the home inspection is not intended to provide the client with protection from all of the risks involved.

One of my favorite places to show properties is located in Swansea, Ma. A  little beach community known as "Ocean Grove".   What I love about Ocean Grove is the sense of community, the pride of home ownership is evident all around. Some of these homes have so much character, no two homes are alike! What was once a summer getaway, these cottages have been converted and built up over the years to offer year round living. Many of the homes in Ocean Grove are within walking distance to the Town beach and boat ramp. Where there is a recreation hall & senior center used for various community activities. Homes in Ocean Grove start at $85,000, you can catch a sneak peak of some of the homes currently listed for sale in the MLS. Ocean Grove is located between routes 103 & interstate 195, a trip ...

Mortgage Rate Forecast for September 14, 2010 - Improving, or...? Here are some of the events affecting mortgage rates today: What Mortgage Backed Securities (MBS) Are Doing Today: The price of the FNMA 30-Year 4.0% MBS coupon opened at 102.56 this morning - the same as yesterday's close. At 9:30 AM, the 4.0% MBS coupon was trading at 102.75 - up 6/32 from its opening. Remember, on mortgage backed securities (MBSs), as the price goes down, the yield goes up - and so do mortgage rates. I expect that mortgage rates will be as much as 0.125 points better in price this morning as compared to yesterday afternoon. Price Trend in Mortgage Backed Securities: The chart below shows the price trend of the FNMA 30-Year 4.0% coupon over the past 30 days from 8-15-2010 to 9-14-2010: Economic Reports,...
