This month has been big for me.  I have been an agent in MA for 18 months now and have already won some awards.  My commissions in my first year were just below $100,000 which put me in the Executive Club for the REMAX system.  Not bad, but I wanted to do better and I will this year.

Weston is one of the highest ranked school systems in the state on a consistent basis. It is also only 18 miles from downtown Boston, but it provides a community of large yards and privacy. Close to the city and all the amenities, but far enough away to provide the peace, quiet and great schools you want. This contemporary home has an updated kitchen with all the best appliances as well as updated lighting throughout the home. This lighting takes advantage of energy efficiency and newer design. There is also an updated sound system that was installed throughout the home and grounds. We will hold an open house on March 11th for the public to get a view of this architecturally significant home. 02/26/2012
