Missing Swan in Dover.

New swans arrived to the pond on Wilsondale Street this morning and one seems to be on the run. The owners just drove them back from PA and let them loose this morning. It's a beautiful sight seeing them frolicking about. The vast number of wildlife hungting for prey at night took the two previous swans. These new owners were hoping for a smoother transition.

If anyone happens to be walking the trails of Noanet Woods or Hale Reservation and sees a stray swan please call Gray at 508-785-1128.

The Pinnacle Report has been a longstanding real estate new review produced by Pinnacle Residential Properties, authored by Elain Bannigan. The report officially began as a review of the Wellesley market and has expanded over the years to include Weston and Needham with the most recent addition of Dover.

The latest report published September, 2009, Volume 3 takes a look at the market in Dover (and Needham) from January 1, 2009 through July 31, 2009. Dover sales were slow compared to previous years, down 36% for closed sales transaction volume. Needham, however, remained consistent. One must address the volume of inventory available between the two towns to see the difference and reasoning in the sales activity. For more information, please call Pinnacle Residential, 781-237-5000.

We saw three offers on a house just put on the market this weekend. It is selling as asking. Finally buyers are beginning to step and take notice of some of the great values Dover has to offer. We can also attribute this quick action to value pricing. Another great property was just reduced from $1,079,000 to $990,000 and the phones are rining. 23 Saddle Ridge Road offers a great neighborhood, beautiful level fenced yard, lots of entertaining space, 4 nice bedrooms now at a great price.
