LIVING IN THE ADIRONDACKS
Reconnecting with Keene
Guitarist Matt Dunne returns to create new artistic life
M By Andy Flynn
att Dunne met his wife Elizabeth Coccia while they were students at SUNY Potsdam, and they spent much of their time in the late 1970s and early 1980s hiking and camping in the Adirondack High Peaks region. Now, after more than 30 years working as college professors in Texas, they’ve returned to Keene to do more than spend time on the trails. They’re creating a new life here. You may see Dunne — a classical and jazz guitarist and composer — playing guitar at various venues in the region. And you may see Coccia working at The Birch Store or the Keene Valley Library. “It’s a really wonderful community,” Dunne said. “We’ve made a lot of friends, and there’s a really good thriving arts community, which is especially important to me.” While they had good lives in Texas, it never felt like home; both are orginally from upstate New York. “This feels like home,” Dunne said of Keene. Dunne, 62, grew up in Albany and graduated from SUNY Potsdam’s Crane School of Music with a bachelor’s degree in 1981. “During that time, I started coming out here to hike a lot,” Dunne said. Then he moved to Tallahassee in 1983, receiving a master’s degree in guitar from Florida State in 1986, and earned a doctoral degree from the University of Texas at Austin before the University of Texas at San Antonio hired him as a full-time guitar professor.
Meanwhile, Coccia, who studied sociology at SUNY Potsdam, earned a master’s degree in counseling from SUNY Oswego and a doctorate in educational administration from University of Texas at Austin before joining the Austin Community College staff in 1990. She eventually became a professor and chair of ACC’s Human Services Department, specializing in addiction treatment and counseling. With an eye toward retirement, the couple had been returning to the Adirondacks for summer vacations for the past 10 years or so. Dunne took advantage of an early retirement offer at the end of the 2018-2019 school year, but Coccia was still working at ACC. They had built a house in Keene but couldn’t live here full time until Coccia retired and they sold their house in Texas. The plan was to settle down in Keene in June 2020. Then the coronavirus pandemic hit in mid-March 2020. They had already planned a three-day drive to Keene, bringing household items from their old house to the new one. “We came here for spring break to bring a load of stuff up,” Dunne said. “And by the time we got here, the whole country had shut down. It was just the weirdest thing. We got in the car in Texas, started driving up, and that was the week ... everything started shutting down. And by the time we got here, we realized we were not leaving.” ACC shut down, so Coccia’s classes for the rest of the semester went virtual. They took a flight back to San Antonio to close on their house in April 2020. Other than that, they’ve been living in Keene since the beginning of the pandemic.

BUYING TIPS
Getthe BestDea l W e a llw a n tthe b estd ea l o n b u yin g a n ew ho m e. Bu tw ith so m a n y fa cto rs im p a ctin g the fin a lco st, ho w ca n yo u m a ke su re yo u ’re g ettin g the m o st b a n k fo r yo u r b u ck? The best way to start is by simply going through the preapproval process with your local bank. Doing so will get you an idea of your ideal budget and how much of a down payment you’ll need to bring to the table. Without this knowledge, it will feel like you’re throwing darts as you look through online or print listings of homes on the market. Follow the steps below to make sure you understand how to go about getting the best deal on your new home. FIND A REPUTABLE AGENT Can you navigate the homebuying process by yourself? Sure. Is it ideal? Probably not. There are a lot of details that go into searching for a new home, and a licensed local Realtor can be your best friend throughout every phase. Find an agent who offers great service and is responsive in their communications. These are two of the most important qualities of a local agent. Once you’ve found one, you’re ready to move onto the research phase. RESEARCH IS KEY Work with your agent to evaluate the prices in the area. Check out pictures, look at materials and finishes in the home, think about lot size, and

consider the neighborhood. Try not to fall in love with the first home you check out. Experts recommending visiting three to five homes at least to make sure you understand all of the pros and cons of various properties. Consider school districts, amenities and overall size of the home. Research is the key to finding a new home and making sure you have realistic expectations of what you can afford on the open market. CONSIDER CHEAPER OPTIONS If you’re young and looking for a first home, you might consider finding
an option that is lower on your budget scale and then putting together a plan for fixing it up. This can help you keep some cash in the bank while you work toward improving the home for a higher resale. This strategy isn’t for everyone. If you’re looking for your forever home and don’t plan on moving anytime soon, you may feel more comfortable landing on a higher-priced option with less focus on your return on investment. Whatever your plan is, working with a local licensed Realtor can give you a leg up on other possible buyers looking for homes in your market.
