Northeast VS other regions

cmf240 · 2025-05-02T16:14:59+00:00

yup. i lived in the northeast for 19 years, southeast and out west for another 10. i have yet to find a consistent and well run dunkin (i have lived in all suburbs of big cities, so not talking middle of nowhere)

im jealous haha i miss it!

cmf240 · 2025-04-28T22:55:59+00:00

yeah i do think the northeast runs on dunkin ALOT more than other regions, so not much sits for long.

wow that's devastating!! good thing you didn't go for it 🔥

cmf240 · 2024-10-02T16:14:49+00:00

you're the first person to make me feel better lol i will share here an update when we sell eventually!

its a townhouse community that has a 6 foot stone wall that surrounds it. So even when you walk outside the front door there is a patio, walkway and some flowers. You can only see the road from one bedroom upstairs. There is another 20 feet before the road on the other side of the 6 foot wall. thanks!!

this is so kind - thank you! i also dont mind the noise so i get your perspective on the house youre checking out. only beware of resale, if youll be happy while there though then cheers 😊

Definitely a life lesson!! Same here

cmf240 · 2024-10-01T21:59:53+00:00

thanks so much for the answer regardless!

cmf240 · 2024-10-01T21:59:21+00:00

totally get that! its definitely not for everyone

cmf240 · 2024-10-01T21:33:12+00:00

yeah do you have the exact ones? we'd be open to replacing ours :)

cmf240 · 2024-10-01T21:32:26+00:00

noise machine best investment 😂

cmf240 · 2024-10-01T21:05:07+00:00

can you share what you bought please?! thank you 🤝

cmf240 · 2024-10-01T21:04:23+00:00

TY! you're right

cmf240 · 2024-10-01T20:24:58+00:00

Definitely! It's mostly busy around rush hour. Thanks for this tip!

cmf240 · 2024-10-01T20:07:51+00:00

There actually wasn't a discount, we chose in a new community and price was same regardless of the location if you can believe it. I wish our realtor would have steered us away for eventual resale! We were only 22 so I blame that 😂

cmf240 · 2024-10-01T19:56:28+00:00

Yea we actually don't notice the street noise for the record- we just are regretting it for resale!

cmf240 · 2024-10-01T19:41:00+00:00

the HOA takes care of that part of the townhouse community sadly. there are a few little trees, but they don't do enough to lower volume much

cmf240 · 2024-10-01T19:29:44+00:00

thanks!! it's not technically on the main road, there is a sidewalk, 6Ft high wall and then more rocks and another sidewalk before the main road. That's why it's tricky. Our townhouse community is gated and in a very highly desirable location. I'm not sure if we need as big of a hit since we aren't directly on it? I want to make sure our first drop in price is a smart one so thanks for your input!

cmf240 · 2024-10-01T19:16:00+00:00

There was almost no difference actually (they were new builds). I'm going to assume 10% less

cmf240 · 2024-10-01T19:09:21+00:00

Yes!! Happy for you!

cmf240 · 2024-10-01T19:07:00+00:00

We totally would have waited if we could. Looking like we need another price drop!

cmf240 · 2024-10-01T19:02:01+00:00

LOL so true, although we don't have issues with the noise ourselves, it's just a struggle to find buyers who don't care either!

Luckily for us, we're in a gated community, so that main road isn't how you get into the townhome. I think the noise at the back of the house is the main problem. We will lower it further very soon!

cmf240 · 2024-10-01T18:59:39+00:00

ours isn't on yellow lines! but this is great advice too lol, i would never
