SOUTHERN VERMONT - THE GREATEST AREA ON EARTH!! The pristine and safe environment, the recreational opportunities, the close-knit communities, the excellent schools, the concerned citizens and the spirit of independent thinking. You BELONG here… Arlington,Vermont is about 10 minutes south of Manchester and was the home to Norman Rockwell. You can see many of the models he used in his famous Saturday Evening Post pictures who still live right here in Arlington. The population is about ˝ that of Manchester, about 1,900. Arlington is based in reality. It is not a bedroom community for somewhere else and it, too, has a strong sense of community. Real Estate values have gone up here, as well. However, prices are definitely lower than Manchester and Manchester Village.

About Appraisals >Best Interests of the Buyer
Who represents the homebuyer in the transaction? The most common scenario is for homebuyers to purchase a home with the help of the seller's listing agent. In this case, known as "dual agent representation," the real estate agent assists both the sellers and the buyers. However, it is also possible for the buyers to ask another realtor to represent their interests exclusively, acting as the "buyer's agent," a service which is available at no additional cost to the homebuyer.
Any licensed real estate agent can act as your buyer's agent, helping you to locate and look at properties in your price range. However, if that real estate agent works for the same brokerage that is listing a particular property, dual agency or designated agent rules will then apply. The buyer's agent will advise the buyer if issues arise such as termite damage or significant material defects appearing on the home inspection report. If the home appraisal comes in at less than the asking price, the agent will represent the buyer's interest, working with the seller and the lender to negotiate a satisfactory resolution.
