A Hull MA home buyer should receive a brochure, Home Inspectors Facts for Consumers Sheet, at the time of the signing of the first written contract to purchase.A standard home inspection in Massachusetts is a visual examination of the physical structure and major interior systems of a residential building consisting of one to four dwelling units. It should be understood that there are certain risks inherent in the purchase of property and a home inspection is inherently limited in its scope and depth. The information gained from home inspection conforming to the Massachusetts Home Inspector Standards of Practice may reduce some of those risks, but the home inspection is not intended to provide the client with protection from all of the risks involved.Visit the Hull MA Home Inspector web... 01/26/2015

The view from my client's new home on Spinnaker Island overlooks a private marina, a sliver of the Hull mainland, and then Massachusetts Bay to the north from the southern end of Boston Harbor. Across the water lies Graves Lighthouse, and further north, he can see Boston Light, as well as the shoreline from Nahant to southern Boston to Marblehead. He can also see the marina area to the south from his kitchen window on the other side. The top picture is a photo looking toward his kitchen window from the north. The plane this picture was taken from was somewhere over Boston, or a bit to the south. Spinnaker Island is in the middle bottom, with white condos on it. You can see the white causeway that connects it to the headlands to the east. The view is from the north, looking toward Hingha... 11/15/2013

Condos for Sale in Hull, MA continue to show some resilience in the final quarter of 2010.  However volume leaves a bit to be desired, but some improvement is starting to gain traction.

Weekend Ferry service may return to Hull, MA’s Nantasket Beach this summer.    Service would run between Boson's Long Wharf and Steamboat Wharf in Hull.  Water Transportation Alternatives Inc., which does business as Boston’s Best Cruises, was the sole bidder on a request from the Town of Hull for ferry service runs between Steamboat Wharf in Hull, MA and Long Wharf in Boston, MA.  Steamboat Wharf is located on the Bay side of Hull just across from the Paragon Carousel and next to the famed Jake's Seafood & Restaurant.  This is a short walk to Nantasket Beach, and the many good eating establishments along Hull Shore Drive.   Last year Hull attempted to restore a summer ferry service to Nantasket Beach but efforts failed.   I for one, commend The Town of Hull for attempting to restore t... 01/13/2011

Well the Hull Single Family housing market showed some mixed, yet fairly positive, results for the last month of 2010!   December saw seven homes sell which equals the same number of single family homes that sold in the same period in the prior year of 2009.  However the average selling price dropped from $374,057 in Dec. '09 to $219,771 this past December.  Not to add insult to injury, but the median sales prices slid as well with the median price falling from $354,000 to roughly $250,000 year over year.  However time on the market did shorten from a 148 days to 136.  The take away here is the volume and the time needed to sell have improved, but pricing is still a key variable. 01/05/2011

The Hull Condo market showed that it has continued its anemic pace turning in only one more sale this past November than in the same period one year prior.  Even with volume doubling, from one unit to two sold units, prices remained firm, or withing a ten percent band.  The one unit that sold in Nov. '09 sold for $150,000 or $198 per square foot.  And that is in line with the two units that closed this past November at an average sales price of $211,250 or $173 per square foot. Although we are not dealing with enough sales volume to draw any conclusions, I do continue to see good interest in the condo market in Hull.  My own listing which can be seen at http://45hullshoredrive108.ePropTour.com, is drawing great attention.  I would suspect that this remains true through out the Hull cond... 12/13/2010
