East Bay Living By NEGM Staff

Narragansett Bay divides the state of Rhode Island into two parts. The term East Bay refers to communities on the east side of the bay, including Bristol, Warren, Barrington, Tiverton and Little Compton. There are few places in the northeast where you may watch the sunrise and set over water, the East Bay is one of them. This small section of the smallest state in the United States was actually not part of the original state boundaries. In 1746 by royal decree, these towns were granted to the state of Rhode island by the Plymouth Colony.

Tiverton RI Along the east passage of the Sakonnet River disconnected from state borders, the towns of Tiverton and Little Compton are havens for beauty and serenity and offer a very special way of life for both year- round and seasonal residents. These seaside communities are home to farms, wineries, spectacular seaside homes and waterfront seasonal cottages along the shore. Traveling south from central Tiverton’s beautiful waterfront through Nanaquaket and the historic 4 Corners region of town gives you a taste of life along the bay. It is a great place to live and offers public access to the water with marinas for boaters and close proximity to some of New England’s finest beaches. Little Compton RI South from Tiverton 4 Corners passing Fogland, home of Tiverton Town Beach, you pass into one of Rhode Island’s outermost communities, Little Compton. Those who take the ride never mind the time it takes to reach one of the special places in this little October 2013 | NEHomeLife.com

state. Little Compton is quite simply quintessential seaside New England at its very best. This small community is home to magnificent oceanfront homes and is dotted with historic farmland and vineyards looking out over the Sakonnet Passage of Narragansett Bay. As it was 100 years ago, it still is today and most folks here love it that way. If you are fortunate enough to spend a summer day on the exclusive links at Sakonnet Golf Club, Donald Ross who summered here and designed, the facility will treat you to one of

golfâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s true masterpieces. The Land of Bridges & Bike Paths I have often wondered what life was like before bridges were constructed to connect the East Bay to the rest of Rhode Island. In Tiverton there is Nanaquaket Bridge and the Sakonnet River Bridge which links Tiverton to Portsmouth RI. The Escape Bridge in Portsmouth connects Island Park and Common Fence Point. Also in Portsmouth the Mt Hope Bridge forms the next link connecting Aquidneck Island to the East Bay community of Bristol RI. The Palmer River Bridge and Barrington River Bridge complete the connection between Warren RI and Barrington RI. The new Providence River Bridge connects the East Bay to the capitol city, Providence. The East Bay is blessed with some of New Englandâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s best bike paths and shoreline recreation amenities. Bristol RI In the 1700s Bristol was a major port for the slave trade and later privateering flourished. During the American Revolution,

now opened up with the very eclectic Stone Harbor Residences which are magnificent waterfront condominiums with amazing harbor views. In addition to the luxury residences, Stone Harbor also offers a 39-slip marina for its occupants. Stone Harbor is having a major impact on Bristol economy and real estate values. Colt State Park is a great public access park along the shore with full waterfront access and a great family favorite for cookouts and family celebrations. Bristol suffered several attacks by British troops. The Joseph Reynolds House on Hope Street served as headquarters for Marquis de Lafayette and his staff in 1778. Today, Bristol retains an historic character with many handsome homes built in the 1800s, some designed by noted architect Russell Warren. Visitors come from far away places to enjoy Bristol's scenic beauty and the oldest celebration of the Fourth of July in America. You can stroll along its waterfront, shop in its many stores and dine in its fine restaurants. The Bristol waterfront community is lively and blessed with some of the best restaurants in the state. The Waterfront once blocked by large textile mills has

Warren RI Warren has grown from a settlement of 18 houses in 1653 to a community with a population of 11,400 within its 6.2 square miles. Although a small town, residents support 11 churches, many family-owned businesses and more than 30 restaurants. Incorporated into Rhode Island from Swansea, Massachusetts in 1747, Warren was named for Sir Peter Warren who commanded the British fleet that cooperated with troops from New England in capturing the fortress at Louisberg. The town was pillaged and burned by Hessian troops during the Revolutionary War. After the Revolution, shipbuilding, maritime trades and whaling flourished in War-

ren. In the mid-1800s many mills were built in Warren. The ethnic diversity found in Warren today stems from those who came to work in the mills including French Canadians, Italians, Poles, Irish and Portuguese. The College of Rhode Island (now Brown University) was founded in Warren in 1746 and held its first commencement there before relocating to Providence. Antiquing is now a major draw for tourists and residents alike, in small shops along Water Street, Main and Child streets, and along side streets in the downtown area. It is small town USA and just 14 miles from downtown Providence.

the Barrington Preservation Museum. Historic cemeteries with stones dating from the 1600s are located in the Allin and Tyler Point Cemeteries. Nature lovers, birders and hikers may enjoy the Osamequin Bird Sanctuary on the banks of 100-Acre Cove. Barrington is home to the Annual CVS Charity Classic at the beautiful Rhode Island Country Club one of the states most prestigious private golf clubs. Each year professional golfers visit the Ocean State as guest of PGA Tour players Billy Andrade and Brad Faxon. Thousands visit Barrington to get up close with some of the legends of the game of golf and to support local charities through the CVS Caremark Foundation.

Barrington RI

Barrington is best known as a place of beautiful homes, country estates, tree-lined streets and boat-filled harbor. It has a high median income and high education level. Originally, Barrington was known as Sowams, the residence of Massasoit, chief of the Wampanoag Indians. In the early days, Barrington was a farming community and in the 19th century became popular as a summer resort. Photos and artifacts of these earlier ways of living may be seen in 10

Living in The East Bay Rhode Island may be the smallest state in the union and the East Bay represents a very small section of the state by land area. It is one of Rhode Island’s top choices for homebuyers. Bridges connects the small communities that make up this region and the towns of the East Bay offer seaside and waterfront living at it very best. From East Providence south along the East Bay the communities of Barrington, Warren, Bristol, Tiverton, Little Compton and Aquidneck Island are surrounded by water and this region will remain in high demand for years to come. East Bay and the Islands of Rhode Island represent just over 15% of the states population and significantly less when it comes to land area. One thing is for sure, the quality of life in the East Bay, its rich history and character and charm makes the “ Land of Bridges” in Rhode Island a major player in today’s market.

How to Choose a Mortgage Banker By Marc Walz When looking for your next mortgage banker, it’s always a good practice to look beyond quoted rates. Sometimes finding and purchasing your dream home can take time. Choosing someone who is diligent and experienced can significantly reduce any potential problems with your transaction. But if an unavoidable speed-bump on the road to closing happens, it is important to know you are part of a dependable, positive team that you can count on to be upfront, proactive, and creative. A good mortgage banker should qualify you for a loan that fits your overall financial plan and understand that your future goals are just as important as your current needs. Here are some tips to keep in mind while finding your mortgage banker. Find a mortgage banker who… • Has a good reputation. Referrals from people you trust are often the best way to ensure a smooth mortgage process. When you find a trustworthy mortgage banker, you should protect your friends and family by referring them to your mortgage banker as well. • Answers all of your questions in a direct and straightforward manner. • You are comfortable working with. Personality is especially important when you run into those unavoidable problems! • Is professional and knowledgeable about your options. • Is patient and understanding. That they take the time to listen to your needs and concerns, and takes the time to explain everything to you clearly. • Provides guidance and reassurance when necessary. • Is accessible and has a team you can rely on. • Gives you the personal attention and respect you deserve. At RMS, we know that sometimes finding just the right house to call home can be a long, frustrating process. That’s why we’re committed to making home financing as simple and straightforward as possible. From helping prepare your initial paperwork through closing on the home of your dreams, you can trust that RMS has it covered. Unlike retail banks and credit unions, RMS pro-

Since 1991, homeowners across New England have turned to the home financing professionals at Residential Mortgage Services, Inc.

Affordable, Efficient, Ambiance. Go Green with Pellet Fuels by South Shore Wood Pellets

A sensible alternative to the more expensive and environmentally harmful traditional home heating fuels is green friendly pellet fuels. Pellet fuels are made of wood waste, from forest thinning by-products and other biomass ingredients. The production of pellet fuels diverts millions of tons of waste from landfills and turns it into a clean, renewable energy source. The burning of pellet fuels reduces greenhouse gases emitted in the environment when compared to the burning of home heating oils, propane or natural gas. Over the past several years, pellet fuels have been an extremely cost stable home heating alternative, and pellet fuels are currently used throughout North America. According to data from the Pellet Fuels Institute, pellets are a limitless fuel source since they are produce from wood waste, as well as from forest thinning by-products and other biomass ingredients. North American pellet fuels are produced in manufacturing facilities in Canada and the United States. 68

NEHomeLife.com | October 2013

Currently, there are 1.5 million homes in the United States using wood pellets for their home heating, in freestanding stoves, fireplace inserts and even in furnaces. Pellet fuel for heating can also be found in such large-scale environments as schools, prisons and other large capacity facilities. Pellet stoves pollute less than the EPA-certified wood burning stoves and in fact, less than any other heating appliance that burns solid fuels. The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency recommends that traditional fireplaces be replaced with non-wood burning stoves like pellet stoves. A properly vented, installed and maintained wood pellet stove will have little effect on your indoor air quality and will have the least impact on outdoor air quality, as they emit much less pollution than traditional home heating alternatives. This is evident when comparing the smoke coming out of the stove, the wood pellet stoves are so efficient in the burning process that the smoke emitted from their vents

is clear as compared to other home heating alternatives who’s smoke may be grey or black. Their efficient burning has an added benefit to the homeowner, allowing wood pellet stoves to be vented outdoors through a pipe in an outside wall instead of through a chimney. As a result, wood pellet stoves can be installed almost anywhere in the home. An important point of note is pellet stoves do require electricity to work but require a very nominal amount of electric energy. Pellet stoves come in several designs, are sturdy, reliable and offer a safe and efficient alternative to traditional home heating options. Pellet fuels are manufactured from construction waste products and keep millions of tons of wood waste out of landfills yearly. Pellet fuels are clean burning, highly efficient, cost stable and the perfect choice for the environmentally conscious homeowner.

The Pellet Advantage • Diverts millions of tons of waste from Landfills • Renewable & limitless fuel source • Cost stable, low cost home heating alternative • Clean burning and efficient • In over 800,000 homes in the U.S.

How Credit Affects Your Ability To Get A Mortgage by Peter DeFusco

Your credit is a still the major factor in determining if you will be approved for a mortgage. The way lenders asses your credit is by pulling your FICO scores from the three major credit bureaus, Experian, Trans Union, and Equifax. Each repository gives a numerical value to your credit which is known as your FICO score. Lenders will use the middle score to determine first if you are eligible and then what type of interest rate you may get. The three fico scores are always different because creditors sometimes only report to either one or two of the bureaus. The middle score gives the lender the best indication of your ability to pay the loan back.

Here’s how your score is determined: 35 percent is determined by your payment history. Do you regularly pay your bills or fines on time to any creditor that submits your information to the credit bureau? Even unpaid library fines, medical bills or parking tickets may appear here.

NEHomeLife.com | October 2013

30 percent is based on the amounts you owe each of your creditors, and how that compares with the total credit available to you or the total loan amount you took out. If you’re maxing out your credit cards, your score may suffer. 15 percent is based on the length of your credit history, both how long you’ve had each account and how long it’s been since you had any activity on those accounts. The fewer and older the accounts, the better (assuming you’ve made timely payments). 10 percent is based on how many accounts you’ve recently opened compared with the total number of your accounts, as well as the number of recent inquiries on your report made by lenders to whom you’ve applied for credit.Your score can drop if it looks as if you’re seeking several new sources of credit - a sign that you may be in financial trouble. The final 10 percent is determined by the types of credit used. Having installment debt - like

a mortgage, in which you pay a fixed amount each month - demonstrates that you can manage a large loan. But how you handle revolving debt, like credit cards, tends to carry more weight since it’s seen as more predictive of future behavior. It is crucial that you know your credit history before you apply for a mortgage. Your FICO score will determine what interest rate you qualify for. Until recently a credit score of 680 was considered

Call Today and Ask About All of our Great Mortgage Programs A plus, that has now changed. 740 is the new high water mark for qualifying for the lowest rates on a conventional loan. FHA, VA, and Mass Housing loans have lower FICO score requirement than conventional loans. If you are uncertain of what your score is you should meet with a loan officer to see where you stand. If your score is below the minimum required hope is not lost. By meeting with a trained mortgage professional you can get on a plan to fix your credit. It may take as little as 60 days depending on your circumstances. We at First Eastern are always available to meet and review a customer’s credit profile and if they are not quite ready to buy, put them on a plan to get there credit fixed. please call us for a free consultation.

Smart Living Through Organization and Automation Welcome to the Possibilities

The newest trend in living today is maximizing space through organization and smart home design. Quite simply space has become expensive and organizing what you have just makes sense, the age of clutter is over. The National Association of Home Builders Survey shows that most homebuyers today are looking for smaller residences, in part because of the aging population and in part because of economic savings. A home, which has a smaller size, costs less to maintain and keep comfortable, and usually the taxes owed on the property are also less than a larger model would be. As more people take steps to cut costs and eliminate unnecessary expenses the switch to homes with less square footage has become extremely popular. In today’s marketplace smart homes that have closet systems, storage systems and entertainment and technology systems sell faster and bring higher prices to the seller.

A Place For Everything

With space at a premium companies like Custom Closet Geeks have seen a boom in their business in the last few decades. They provide not only complete closet systems but also full home organizational systems for every room in your home. From the kitchen to the garage they provide flexible solutions for storage for everything in your life. Their motto” a place for everything and everything in its place” has been their key to success in the marketplace. Custom designed home storage solutions for new homes and old, in home free consultation and design and com80

plete installation and service have been a formula for success for the last 30 years.

When Is The

Best Time To Get That New

Roof? By RIRemodel.com

As fall sets in here in New England, Rhode Island homeowners may begin looking at their homes and finding different projects and repairs that need to be done around the property. Some of them may be minor: yard work that was put off through the blazing summer heat and sweltering humidity, maybe cleaning out clutter that you have accumulated through the past year, etc. But some of the repairs that homeowners could notice may be a little more serious and time sensitive. Have you looked at your roof lately? Is it time to think about getting a new roof? If you need a new roof when should you think about having this done? It may be your hope that your roofâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s minor issues could make it through the winter till the spring to be fixed then, but our sometimes harsh Rhode Island winters are not easy on roofs, and tiny

holes and leaks can be magnified- creating a big problem for you as the homeowner in the dead of winter. That being said, when is the best time to repair your roof or think about getting a new roof? Fall in Rhode Island is the perfect time to begin working on your new roofboth for your roof, and for your roofer. The nice weather generally means that your roof could be finished quickly, without struggling with the heat. It also means that the shingles will have time to properly expand and seal, protecting your roof from future leaks. Rhode Island Remodeling uses the finest quality materials, and as one of the top rated roofing companies in Rhode Island, we take pride in offering nothing but the best products on your home, youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re sure to be satisfied with the finished product.
