Senior Center news
Fuel assistance alert ... It’s been a long, hard winter and in
this economic climate, substantially more difficult for people to
pay for fuel costs. Despite a big increase in income eligibility
guidelines for fuel assistance through South Shore Community
Action Counsel, many residents do not qualify and find them-
selves burdened by fuel costs. The Massachusetts Good Neigh-
bor Energy Fund may be able to help. This fund is available for
those with temporary financial difficulty who are not entitled
to assistance from other state and federal resources. The fund
targets “working poor” and has higher income guidelines. The
fund consists of money collected by various utility companies
and is managed by the Salvation Army. The local Salvation
Army, located in Plymouth, may be reached by calling 508-746-
1559 for initial eligibility screening.

While Cohasset is a Divi-

why, as he notched four goals
to lead the Dragon attack.
Duxbury’s forward line
showed that they’ll have to

Why this ad for a real estate brokerage
doesn’t show pictures of homes….
And other marketing revelations from the fastest growing
real estate brokerage on the South Shore.
As a means of bringing clarity to how The Sobran Group will work for you, it’s best to start
with what we’ve achieved* for others seller in this challenging market.
The Sobran Group is home to the highest selling agent in Duxbury for 2008. As a matter of
fact, 50% higher in dollar sales than the next best selling agent!
The Sobran Group is home to the #2 selling agent for our entire market, which is Hingham
to Duxbury.
The fact that the highest selling agent for Duxbury works out of an office in Hingham should
show you the importance of cross marketing and push marketing, two processes we’ve lever-
aged to achieve these results.
In January of 2009,The Sobran Group brought in a buyer for a million dollar plus home in
Duxbury that was not even on the market! That seller paid absolutely no commission and
sold their home immediately.
The Sobran Group offers pre-market analysis and recommendations which result in our list-
ings selling closer to original list price than any other agency on the South Shore.
Web appeal is the new curb appeal. Which is why all our sellers are offered complimentary
professional photography and high definition narrated video tours. (We are the only company
in all of Massachusetts that provides this for all of their listings.) And we leverage these videos
everywhere from MLS to Realtor.com to Boston.com to Trulia, Zillow and YouTube. (Do a
search for “Duxbury real estate” on YouTube and see the results.) Does this marketing work?
The facts speak for themselves.
The Sobran Group is not your typical real estate agency. We are a marketing firm that sells
real estate. That makes us fundamentally different from our competition.
“Different Approach. Superior Results.” More than a slogan, a
proven maxim for delivering solutions and success to our clients.
Visit sobrangroup.com to view our listings and see more results,
or call us at 749-3311 and learn what we can do for you.
