East Fishkill Greek Revival with a story to tell – told by Mary Belle Duvivier

It is our pleasure to introduce Mary Belle Duviver as a guest blogger and life-long resident of Dutchess County as she tells the story of her home.  Located in the Town of East Fishkill on 1.8 acres, this home is currently on the market.  The original part of the home was built before the revolutionary war with an addition built in the 1830′s transforming it into a Greek Revival.

Join us for a 1st-Time Home Buyer Seminar at our LaGrange Office 7PM Tonight!

Are you a first-time home buyer?   Confused by the tax credit and wonder if maybe you can buy a home and get $8000 back?   Just don’t know where to start?

Why not start by dropping by our office tonight for a cup of coffee and to sit down and take a few minutes to listen to Alice Tenuto of Rhinebeck Savings Bank and learn a little about how you might be able to use the First-Time Home-buyer tax credit.  Time is running out to take advantage of the tax credit and in certain instances it can be used for the down payment of closing costs.

It’s free.  It may help bring you closer to being a homeowner.

For more information call 454-7800.

Stop by tonight, January 27th at 7pm.
