CT Hurricane Evacuations: Many towns are already encouraging evacuations - Guilford, Milford & Westbrook have already encouraged residents who live south of i-95 to voluntarily evacuate. Many low lying areas, such as the Guilford Green, are at extreme risk of flooding and all residents and businesses are encouraged to evacuate prior to sundown Saturday night.
CT Hurricane Tips:
Preparing Supplies - While many stores have sold out of water, bread. Focus on non-perishable items that do not need to be kept cold or frozen. If your power goes out, your microwave won't work. If your power goes out, you should keep your refrigerator and freezer shut to lock in cold air. Pretend you are going on a camping trip with no readily available electric outlets. Bottles of water and soda do not require refrigeration. Bagged snacks and cans of food that can be eaten cold are also good options. Gas and charcoal grills are good options (once the storm stops!)

Scott Silverstone obtained his real estate license shortly after finishing law school at Franklin Pierce Law Center (now the University of New Hampshire School of Law). Prior to real estate, Scott worked for Fortune 500 companies, technology startups and law firms including John R. Williams and Associates in New Haven, CT. With a background that spans marketing, technology, finance and law, Scott now brings his unique skill set to the Connecticut Shoreline real estate market.
In Scott’s first year of real estate, he was one of the top performers in his office. Last year, his listings averaged fewer than 30 days before going under contract. His diverse group of clients currently includes waterfront luxury homeowners and property investors, as well as a number of first time home buyers.
An avid investor, Scott purchased “project foreclosure” in 2009. This renovated home overlooks the base of Guilford’s WestWoods Trail. Scott spent much of his first year in "project foreclosure" renovating the home’s interior. More recently he started some extensive landscaping projects, including extensive flower beds and a vegetable garden. In addition to landscaping and home renovations, Scott is an avid mountain biker and enjoys golfing (most often at the Guilford Lakes Golf Course). Scott enjoys the art and culture in the community and his organization, CTProperty.com continues to sponsor events for the Shoreline Arts Alliance.

Scott Silverstone worked with me to purchase a home that was outside of his typical real estate market at the shoreline. Scott willingly rose to the new challenge and I found him to be well-informed about the local market, the value of the homes and what was available. He was flexible, easy to contact and very willing to meet and speak about any questions I had throughout the process. I found his webpage to be quite helpful in the preliminary steps of the process as well. As a first time home buyer, I felt Scott more than adequately represented my interests during the negotiation process and he brought the great asset of his experience to the table. Scott Silverstone is a true professional and I would definitely recommend him. Alison (Rocky Hill, CT)
