OK – by Cape standards, summer officially began, Saturday, June 19, because it was the first day of the 2010 Scallop Season. The governor decided to move the date up by nearly two weeks to encourage visitors to come down early. Our beaches are still beautiful and open for business, ...

The headlines haven’t scared off buyers but seem to actually be fueling increased interest in real estate around here as sales remain strong. We had a better than average week, with three sales and three new contracts, eight each new listings and new price tags. Not much change in our ...

It may still be cold outside but it’s been a smokin’ hot week for our company, Boardwalk Realty. There were three sales and three new contracts this week, and we participated in all three of those sales and two out of three of the new contracts. Not bad at all! ...
