Duxbury Clipper 04 - 15 - 2009

The Interfaith Council provides spring food baskets for 167 local families in need, 17 more than last year due to economic hardship. The baskets were assembled last week at Holy Family Church. Separately, Bill Neville will run the Boston Marathon for the first time since 1993 to benefit the American Liver Foundation, though the 26-mile distance is daunting. The town is also revising its emergency robocall policy after complaints about non-emergency uses.

trusted friend raved about the Thai ribs at Sugar

simmered for hours in a spicy Thai marinade of herbs and
spices and bathed in a fragrant garlic sauce. Irresistible! He

called the Highway
Department in to work 36 additional times on top of our regu-
lar hours. This was usually in the middle of the night. It’s not
easy being available 24/7 for three months of the year. It puts
quite a damper on your personal life. The whole crew deserves
a lot of credit. They do their jobs well and that makes my job
easier. I appreciate the confidence the town manager has in me
to fill in during the operation manager’s absence.
What do you like to do in your free time: I spend a lot of
time working around the house and yard. I like riding motor-
cycles, attending car shows, walking my dog, and spending
time with friends.
Favorite books or movies: The most recent book I read is also
the shortest book I’ve ever read, “The One Minute Manager.”
It shows how to manage your encounters with people in such a
way that everyone benefits. It’s a very good book.

A Different Kind of Market Demands


A Different Kind of Real Estate Company.
Last week we detailed The Sobran Group and what we do.
Maybe a lot to read, but we were reaching out to those hungry
for current facts.

This week8 Volunteer


The Sobran Group reports back on our most recent success:
Rd, Hingham, listed @ $899k.

It came on the market Thursday April 2nd, and had one open house on
Sunday April 5th. That evening an offer was received and negotiated to
completion the next day. We didn’t “list” their house, we SOLD their house.

8 Volunteer Road never had a picture in the paper. It didn’t even have time for the sign to go
up. But video and commentary were on 20 different websites, from Trulia to MLS to
YouTube to Zillow, and yes, viewable even through most of our competitors’ websites.

WEB APPEAL IS THE NEW CURB APPEAL.


Think about that today as you drive by sign after sign
on our streets that feel like they’ve been there forever.
In the coming weeks The Sobran Group will launch
campaigns on several new listings in Duxbury and up along the coast to
Hingham. Watch on the back page here and on-line as we introduce,
market and engage buyers for these and all our listings with our unique
tools and methods.
If this type of approach appeals to you,
Call us and see what we can do for you.
We’ll also shortly announce a large scale event here in Duxbury
that will be of sure interest to anyone who goes to the beach.

DIFFERENT APPROACH.
SUPERIOR RESULTS.
