About This Page
This page was originally released on March 27, 2020. It was put together to be the go-to resource page for all things Real Estate as it is continually impacted by the COVID-19 crisis. The page is constantly being updated and improved to make it easier for everyone to navigate this very challenging and unusual time in our history.

The good news is the worst of this COVID-19 crisis seems to be behind us all.ย It sure was a rollercoaster ride through late March and April but our Realtors and staff performed and served our clients in a safe manner the entire time.ย We are slowly but surely getting back to business as usual and are excited to be doing so. Many sellers decided to hold off on listing their homes for sale until later in April and May, which is totally understandable to us, but it did cause the market to slow down for a few weeks in early April.ย Fortunately, it has picked up since then.ย Buyers are buying and sellers are selling and as well, tenants and landlords are renting so it is very busy again.ย To monitor the progress of the market in Massachusetts visit our Real Estate Updates page or if you are in New Hampshire visit this page. ย
As of May 18th, all of our branch offices are open and operating in a controlled and safe manner as we transition back to normal office operations by mid-June. All clients should know we are here to serve them and have been open for business the entire time.ย
Below are blogs, a news story, and various videos I have filmed along the way to keep all of our Realtors, clients, and potential clients updated on the Real Estate market throughout this situation. We also included a section below for those who may be having trouble or are worried that they may soon have trouble affording their home and paying their mortgage. Several mortgage companies are offering to work with borrowers in many different ways including, in some cases, allowing payments to be delayed a few months. If you are a client of ours and you are having any trouble obtaining relief from your mortgage company, please let us know and we will assist free of charge. Take your time and review the whole page to find what you need.
Sincerely,
Anthony Lamacchia
CEO/Owner of Lamacchia Companies
