Across the Bridge

I'm stepping just a tiny bit outside of Salem today, but you can see this property from several points in Salem.

When I was house hunting, one of the properties I looked at was at Tuck Point Condominium in Beverly. The year would have been 2004 or 2005. The place seemed nice, but wasn't really my style. I have a feeling I dodged a major bullet. From the sound of it, the condo board over there is a real piece of work. Read this article about them using loopholes in the law to steal the home of an owner who dared to question them. Definitely a must read for anyone considering buying at Tuck Point.

Considering buying a condo? I'd consider asking if the trustees are represented by Marcus, Errico, Emmer & Brooks, and running hard the other way if the answer is yes. Just one person's opinion.

Another interesting read is this environmental assessment done at the request of a Tuck Point Condo resident. The assessment makes mention of the chemical problems presented in the first piece, lending it credence.
