One good thing about all the rain we have had this year in the Berkshires is that our gardens should be very lush.

I live in Great Barrington, Ma. and i can see from my own gardens that the blooms this season are full with what looks like rich color. As far as the effect on Berkshire Real Estate Sales, beautiful well maintained landscaping and gardens are eye candy. They help to create those magic words Curb Appeal.

For Berkshire  visitors, Second Home Owners and year round residents  the Lenox Garden Clubs annual tour ” Hidden Treasures of The Berkshires” will be July 9th.

Six gardens will be open in Richmond & Stockbridge, Ma. http://www.lenoxgardenclub.net/gardenhousetour.html

Pricing in today’s market is key. Buyers are not only looking at List Price but also at Assessed Value. When a house is first listed is the time that it generates the most excitement. So Pricing your house right from the get go will help you sell it more quickly, when buyer enthusiasm for your property is high.
