Even though there have been 391 condo sales in the past six months on Cape Cod, the number of new listings continues to out-pace the sales. As a result, the number of months it would take to exhaust the current inventory (absorption rate) remains high. The rate in a "normal" market would be appro...

I have started taking the Michael Russer Internet Dominance program and am interested in seeing some good websites that focus specifically on condos.

It's Sunday morning and the weather is gorgeous here on Cape Cod. After an early morning church service, my wife and I went to a listing of mine that a young couple from the west coast will be closing on Monday morning. We vacuumed and did some light weeding so it would look nice for them (the se...

A sure sign that summer is coming is when the community calendar on the Falmouth Chamber of Commerce's website starts to fill up. In addition to the fact that Falmouth has more miles of shoreline than any other town on Cape Cod, the wide variety of daily activities and special events make it an i...
