When measured against the previous five-six years, 2014 was a very good year for local housing and so far, 2015 appears to be headed in the same direction. Overall buyer traffic is about the same but the big difference, to me, is the degree of confidence that people have. [...]

Having two settlements in one day may be commonplace for the big city realty firms, but it is always exciting at Kezar Realty! Especially at the tail-end of February, when the cold and the snow are still with us and it doesn't feel like home-buying season just yet.

As we know, modern technology is advancing rapidly where smart phones and [...]

What a difference a few hours make! The sun is out, the temps are warm (high 20's) and thanks to Scott Gardiner, the best snow plower in Oxford County, the roads are clean. (Here's a great video history of snow plowing in Maine) It looks like we will have a stretch of good weather so let's get out and enjoy the snow. How about a cross-country at the golf course? Thanks to the [...]

Over the past two days we had about six-seven more inches of light, fluffy snow added to the existing base. This is great news for nordic and alpine skiers, snowmobilers and winter enthusiasts! Although this looks like a lot of snow, southern Maine, New Hampshire and Massachusetts have more than we do. I think I heard the city of Boston 'cry [...]

As you drive up or down Route 5 (within the legal speed limit, of course!), you can't help but notice that the OPEN flags are out and flapping in the wind in Lovell Village. I must say, that is a sight that puts a smile on my face!

Once again,  the Center Lovell Firehouse was filled with people and the smell of chili. The crowds came early and many stayed to the end. This year's Battle of the Bowls had 11 entrants, more than 90 ballots were cast for the best chili and there was consistency in both categories.

Judges' Choice:

1) Stow Corner Store (#4)

2)Marc Kurnic [...]

Although there were weeks of site preparation and the pouring of the new foundation and there is still plenty of finishing work to be done, the actual lifting and moving of the structure took a little more than a week. I must say, Mighty Impressive! And it won't be long before it will look like the house is in the original spot.

Whenever I see a 'Fox & Sons' sign in a yard, it is always difficult for me not to stop and become a sidewalk superintendent. It is fascinating to see a built house lifted from its existing foundation and moved to another foundation without falling apart. Almost as delicate as [...]

Over the next few months, KezarLife  is looking forward to following a property's transformation where an older Maine lakeside cottage will disappear and a new year-round residence will be constructed. Kezar Realty is interested in following the change in this specific lot, as it was the Agency's very first settlement in November [...]
