Selling a home in Middleborough
Middleborough was settled in 1661 as Nemasket, a native name for “place of fish” that points to the herring run, and it became a town in 1669. It is the second largest town in Massachusetts by land area. Three rail lines still meet in the town center.
I’m John Fortes, a real estate agent with RE/MAX Synergy, and I help Middleborough owners sell their homes. I walk the house, check the sewer or septic and utility details for your address, and lay out a clear plan. You can learn more about how I work on my South Shore home selling page.

Neighborhoods and areas
Middleborough is a big town, and Middleborough Center is the main village. The Nemasket River runs through town, and the town shares Assawompset, Pocksha and Great Quittacas ponds with Lakeville. Homes near the center and homes on outer roads sell differently, so I price from sales close to yours.
Cranberry bogs line some of the outer roads. Middleborough has no ocean beach.
Middleborough has town water and a town sewer system, but not every street is on sewer. Middleborough Gas and Electric, the town’s own utility, provides gas and electric service, and Eversource is also listed for electric.

John T. Nichols Middle School serves grades 6 to 8, and Middleborough High School serves grades 9 to 12.

Reasons to sell in Middleborough
The worry, then how I help.
Upsizing
You do not want to sell before the next house is set.
I map the dates so you are not stuck with two payments or nowhere to go.
A multi-family
Tenants may still be in the home, and you are ready to sell.
I follow the lease and the law, and I do not promise that a tenant will leave.
Needs work
The house needs work and you do not want to renovate first.
I price it as it stands, and that opinion is not a home inspection.
Inherited
You inherited a house and you are not sure what you can do yet.
I coordinate with your estate attorney, and I do not give legal advice.
A condo
Fees, reserves, or the rules can surprise a buyer.
I read those before we set a price.
Buy and sell
You need to sell one home and buy the next.
I put both dates on paper before we list.
How I help sellers
From the first call through closing, you deal with me.
Pricing
I price from recent sales and the repairs that pay you back, and this is my opinion, not an appraisal.
Prep
I give you a short prep list and introduce vendors that you hire and pay yourself.
Negotiation
I negotiate price, dates, and inspection terms, and I keep my list to 6 to 8 so I have the time.
Closing
A transaction coordinator keeps the file moving, and you still talk to me.
