Conway's Swampscott Team at the Lynn Chamber of Commerce

Jack Conway, Realtor’s Swampscott Office recently hosted a booth at the Lynn Chamber of Commerce’s Home, Garden and Health Show. The event, which took place at Swampscott High School from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m., drew hundreds of visitors to view the wares of vendors ranging from cosmetic dentists to mortgage lenders, along with cooking demonstrations, guest lectures and a keynote speech by Dr. Sheldon Sevinor, a celebrated plastic surgeon.

“The home show was a great chance for my agents to get out and talk real estate with potential buyers and sellers and other members of the community,” said Conway-Swampscott Manager Tim Knowlton. “We were the only Realtors there, and we came away with many new friends and several new customers.”

Hosting the Conway booth during the day-long event were Swampscott sales associates Lisa Scourtas, Amanda Brawley, Paul Ferraro, Teresa Flaherty, Sue Garcelon, Barbara Kennedy-White, Glenn Kessler, Ronnie Northrop, and Sue Sinrich, as well as loan specialist Chris Curran of New England Mortgage Partners, the financial arm of Jack Conway, Realtor.

Owning a Home Today May Cost LESS than Renting an Apartment

That’s the message Jack Conway, Realtor is sending out to renters in the cities and towns it serves.

Owning a Home Cheaper than Renting

Owning a Home Cheaper than Renting?

All Conway sales centers are launching a direct mail campaign that will include customized charts comparing renters’ actual monthly payments to monthly mortgage costs for sample houses and condominiums in their area.

Renters are also invited to attend free Home Ownership Consultations in your local Conway office with Realtors and mortgage specialists on designated evenings during the week.

“According to statistics reported by the National Multi-Housing Council, at least one third of renters are planning to move in the spring and another third in the fall,” said Conway Regional VP Dick Cahill, who launched the new initiative. “That’s why we are reaching out to these potential buyers now while they are considering other housing options and before they decide to renew their leases.”

Conway CEO Carol Bulman believes the time is right to target the rental population since housing prices have stabilized and mortgage interest rates remain near record lows:

These factors along with the advantages of home ownership; building equity, tax deductible mortgage interest, and stable monthly payments, make this the right time to spread the word that renters may actually be able to finance a home for less than what they’re paying their landlord.

Most people understand that buying a house makes sense, but they don’t think they can afford it.  We’re asking them to read our mailings, come to one of our free consultations and explore their options. The dream of homeownership could become a reality far sooner than they think.

For more information about renting versus home ownership in today’s marketplace and your community, contact Dick Cahill at 617-479-1500 or email dcahill@jackconway.com.

Al Becker, Director of Marketing for Jack Conway Co., and I recently made a trip to the northernmost point of Conway Country – our new and exciting Swampscott sales office.

Lead by Tim Knowlton, the sales crew in Swampscott is experienced, dedicated and enthusiastic beyond measure about joining our fine company and about the opportunity to service their areas with the Conway brand by their side.  We were fortunate to have a meeting with Colleen Sullivan, the residential real estate reporter for the Banker and Tradesman, and we hoped to update her on the goings on of our growing company.

I had an opportunity to meet Colleen at the recent Best in 2010 event and cocktail reception honoring those companies who had received this fine honor from B&T.  We were honored to receive the Gold Award the Conway Country Real Estate School, and a silver for our company as a whole out of ALL real estate companies in the state.

Colleen sat in as Al presented to the Swampscott crew the offerings of our new Web site; including the property tours, community pages, Virtual office just for the agents and our new listing presentation for our customers.  We talked a lot about ways to communicate via Facebook, direct mail and other medium to keep our customers feeling informed and updated about their real estate goals.

The meeting concluded with 10 minutes or so with Colleen to talk about the real estate market as a whole, in which Conway Country is doing just great.

Tim later treated Al and me to an amazing lunch at The Dolphin at Marblehead Harbor.  This is a beautiful area and there are lots of opportunities for the folks of Conway Country to assist the fine residents of this picturesque part of the world.  Tim and his agents serve Swampscott, Nahant, Marblehead, Salem and Lynn from their convenient location at 646 Humphrey Street in Swampscott.  The number is 781-584-4757 if you’d like to give us a call!

Swampscott – The Jack Conway, Realtor Swampscott office sales team recently took part in The 3rd Annual Community Walk for Respect. As part of the Swampscott Task Force for Respect for Human Differences and the Northshore Communities, the Conway agents greeted all the walkers at a table.

“This was an outstanding event and chance for us to see all of our friends in the North Shore community,” said manager Tim Knowlton. “Conway is a company that’s committed to getting involved, and this is a great opportunity for that.”

Knowlton was joined by agents Ronnie Northrop, Lisa Scourtas, Marlene Badalato, and Paula Bouchard. All of the proceeds of the event went back to the schools and the community toward support of anti-bias education.
