Milford Condos
Set in Worcester County, Milford is a quaint Massachusetts town with about 28,000 residents. It was incorporated in 1780, and its economy was driven by mining and general industry through the 19th century. The town was first part of Mendon, but it later became a separate city at the time of its incorporation. Between discovery of a rare pink granite in the town and the construction of I-495, businesses have thrived. The town has historically had a strong residential character too.

Buying and selling a townhouse is different from purchasing or selling a home, and there are many considerations and factors to be aware of. This is especially true for first-time buyers and sellers. If you are buying a place for the first time, you may not know about homeowner's association requirements and fees that are attached to the property. This can add more payment on to the price of the unit, and it will also dictate what adjustments you can make to the property. Likewise, there are nuances to keep in mind when selling your place, too. You'll have to make sure your property is up to all local, state, and federal codes before you can sell the house and even show it. You will need to know how to stage your home appropriately for sale, and you'll have to get all of your legal paperwork and documents in order. Ideally, you'll work with a realtor who is familiar with selling homes, as he or she can highlight your home's most desirable features. Pricing and advertising your place correctly is also essential for a fast and successful sale. Whether you are planning to buy a property or sell yours, get in touch with our office, as our staff is familiar with townhouse sales and the local area. We can help with research, pricing, home showings, and other aspects of purchasing or selling a property. We can also work with you to establish a financial budget, search for a loan, and ideally get pre-approved for a loan before you make an offer, which in turn allows you to move into your new place more quickly than you would without having a loan in place.
