The Holiday season is upon us, and for most it is a time full of joy, fellowship, and family. But the unexpected can and does happen. So, from stopping theft to preventing fires, here are a few tips from the experts that can help keep your family safe this time of year. Fire safety comes with the territory of the holidays. Trees and lighting can both be dangerous if not done correctly. When selecting a real tree, be sure to buy one that is fresh. This means you should look for a fragrant tree that is a rich, deep green color. Also, the trunk should still be sticky with sap. Old trees are dry and brittle, and thus can be very flammable. To keep your tree fresh throughout December, be sure to keep it immersed in water at all times. If needles start to fall off, give it more water! For tho...

Previously known as Saltonstall Plantation, Watertown was first established in 1630 by Sir Richard Saltonstall. Belonging to the Middlesex County, Watertown is one of the oldest settlements of United States. It was earlier known as Waterton, which later gradually developed into the modern city of Watertown. Once Watertown had ranked as one of the largest settlements in terms of size and area, second only to Boston. However, with time the scene has changed. The area has been reduced, with portions of its area added to Cambridge. Parts of it have formed towns like Weston, Waltham, Belmont and Lincoln. As a result, the mass of population has also decreased. In the early years of settlement, Watertown with its fertile and productive estates had a flourishing horse and cattle business. The f...
Hello all and Watertown residents. How will this increase in property taxes affect your Real Estate holdings - be it industrial, commercial, or residential? Sometimes I wonder what we are indeed getting with all these tax increases. I know that prices have been rising, but at the same time many budget cuts have been happening within our town. I can say after attending the last Watertown town council meeting that there are some great improvements being done to our school system so perhaps that is a key reason for the tax increases. I hope this increase in taxes will not have any effect on buyers choices to buy in our town. When we look at our town compared to others in the area we still have a better tax rate. Overall I think this slight increase in taxes shouldn't affect our town ...
When you look at your calendar you may find the months already overloaded with seasonal obligations -- shopping, entertaining, children's pageants, charity work, decorating the house, and so much more. If you are also trying to sell your home, you are under extra pressure to keep your home in "showtime" condition. And that could be the last thing you need before the holiday spirit is broken. It is understandable why you would be tempted to take your home off the market during the holidays. And the list of justifications is long. If you are too busy, buyers may be also, and you may find your efforts unrewarded with not enough showings. And what if you do get an offer? You may be faced with the possibility of packing and moving during the busiest time of the year. Besides, you can give yo...

It is a great time to buy for many would-be homeowners. The market offers historically low interest rates, as well as affordable home prices. Here are 10 steps that buyers can take to make home dreams a reality! 1. Savings. You may already know how much monthly payment you can support (experts recommend no more than 1/3 your monthly income), but the buying process will also include upfront costs, such as a downpayment and closing costs. 2. Downpayment options. Do you qualify for downpayment assistance programs? Will you be able to get an FHA loan and pay 3.5 percent down? Do you have a relative that would like to make a downpayment gift? Many financial experts recommend a downpayment of 20 percent, so be sure to explore your options! 3. Check Credit Report. Your credit report says a lot...
