Mortgage rates near record low!

The most common question I get is "How are the rates these days?"  We continue to hear that rates will still go down, but for you buyers I am loving the near record low.  See article from Inman below:

Open houses this weekend!

Please join me at two very special open houses this Sunday May 16th!

87 Benefit Street East Side of Providence 11:00 - 12:30 $760,000 www.87benefit.com

Both incredible College Hill houses that have been renovated and beautifully restored & updated.  When you think about buying an older house you not only wonder about the condition of the house, but more importantly -  how have the current sellers taken care of the house and what have they done to update  it to meet the current "modern" standards of today's living?   Both of these properties have been lucky to have owners who have a love and respect for historic houses.  The renovations and upgrades are beyond a buyer's dream when it comes to buying an older house - it's all been done.  Just move right in and make the house your own!
