You can overnight park on the streets in Arlington for a few nights if you fill out a form on Arlingtons Town Website, so you can still have visitors for a few days. Brickstone Cafe in the center has decent pizza, I wouldn’t say it’s the best, but it doesn’t suck. All the other places are pretty meh tho.

Reply to comment by Graflex01867 in Trying to find an apartment in Boston for a year lease starting in July, how should I find my best/cheapest option? by foreignalfredo
This one time I saw A-Rod leaving a hotel. So I yell "A-Rod you fucking suck!" He turned around and was all pissed off. He started towards me and i Kept yelling. Then all of a sudden Jeter grabs and stops him. He still looked pissed off. I think I broke him that day. Cause after that he started hitting the roids even harder than usual, and then got busted.

Look, it's extremely easy to stop them. A fence. Some caution tape. Calling the cops on them after they start digging. An inconveniently placed car. Removing the flags. Some fake DigSafe markers. A cease-and-desist. Snow fort. Vicious dog. Vicious dog with a gun. Singing telegram. Impromptu archery tournament. Overly curious moose. Claymores (the swords). Claymores (not the swords). Overgrown Roomba. Filming for Furious 11. Cometary fragment impact.

I agree! I’ve historically had great experiences with them, just been an extremely tough year for providers it seems.

You can get lucky. Maine has some good spots. Mass is pretty trash.

Nice, typical sore loser who tries to come at someone personally instead of bringing facts and experience to the table. Here we go…
-
DM me and I’ll give you my social media and you can figure me out for yourself. I became an EMT during the pandemic to help out. And in case you didn’t know becoming an EMT required schooling. (In case you didn’t know there is a shortage in EMT’s in Boston, they don’t make good money but definitely an important part of our infrastructure, maybe you can get certified so you can help out during the outbreak and learn a bit about health while helping your community instead of arguing with them and spewing opinions about things you have no experience in).
-
Who are you to tell me what I have and haven’t done?
-
Where did I ever claim to be an expert in anything.
-
Where did I say he needed comcast? I said he needs access to fiber internet which he doesn’t have without a fiber lines. Sure he has ACCESS the same way I have access to a gas line IF I PAY FOR IT. A buyer will and can use that as a point of negotiation.
-
You need to grow up and stop trying to be right. You’re literally saying I claimed things I never claimed or said. And you’re misconstruing things to try to make your point. You’re investigating my page knowing nothing about my background and honestly man seems kind of sick that you’re trying to come at me personally to make your point.
-
You know so little about real estate you can’t realize that I’m not a jack of all trades I’m just well licensed and certified as an investor. If you knew anything about what you were saying you wouldn’t have commented on a subject you have no professional experience in. A jack of all trades would be a contractor who claims he knows tile, carpentry etc. i just hire the right people… it’s called contracting. I buy and sell my own homes why not save 2-6% on ever sale by not having to pay sales commissions.
-
You’re just mad I gave you what you were asking for. You make false claims to defend yourself. Calling me a boy? All you need is my name yet you’re going off about things that I am and have said that aren’t even true. Learn to take a loss.
DM ME AND ILL SHOW YOU ALL MY CREDENTIALS. You’re a try hard.
I guess you don’t know the concept of aging and having various occupations throughout your life to broaden your skillset. Luckily I do and don’t have to go around trying to tell others how their job works and spewing information I know nothing about. Luckily I broadened my skills and grew through life.
Next time try to discuss with facts. And try to be even slightly experienced in things you try to educate others in. I’m all set with responding to you.
Also since you’re stalking, you’ll find I also was a financial planner, crazy how it all connects as an investor whos an aspiring philanthropist. Yup I do 3D printing too cause wouldn’t it be great if I could 3D print homes and Im also back to school to become a licensed engineer. You’re making me blush because you find it impossible to be me.
If anything your biggest take away from this should be that you should continue to educate yourself beyond the bare minimum.

Reply to comment by [deleted] in Good places to find leases to take over? by [deleted]
Probably 99% of residential leases are for a year term or month to month. (but in the latter case there's nothing to take over - they'd just end their lease). So you're not going to find some lease with multiple years on it to take over, no one has one. Long-term leases can be a thing in commercial real estate (say, a storefront), but pretty much aren't in residential.
You asked about "finding leases to take over". The word for that is a sublet. Someone has an existing lease and is subleasing it to you - a sublet. That is the term you should be putting into your searches if that's what you want.
Now, coming back to the original point. It's possible you can skip the broker fee if you pick up a sublet and then renew the lease when it's up. The landlord doesn't need to list the place, no broker involved.
Some sublet postings will mention that there's an option to renew or the like. You should look for a sublet that says that, and make sure you confirm that it'll be an available option with the landlord before signing.
Considering Boston's typical 9/1 lease cycle, the most likely time to accomplish this would be October-March or so. Pick up a sublet from someone trying to leave with most of a year left on it and renew after.
Units going up for sublet in summer with only a couple months left are usually going to have already been leased to someone else for 9/1. Although occasionally you might find someone who made the mistake of renewing and is now looking to leave. Then you might be able to sign for 16 months or something.

I see you’re an EMT as well. Wow man, you’re a real jackoff-of-all-trades, huh. Realtor, contractor, investor, EMT, what other job titles can I find in your comment history?
Every comment you’ve made on Reddit is claiming to be an expert of whatever bullshit you’re spewing. Reality is you’re just a lonely boy living in your moms basement.
“The study, funded in part by Fiber to the Home Council Americas”
The whole article you reference says just what I did. That having access, ie. living in an area that has high speed internet availability. Nothing to support your claim that having multiple companies access points increases home value.
The man’s already got Fios. He’s already got your supposed 3.1%. He has no reason to allow Comcast on HIS LAND.

Just note that as asked in r/Somerville multiple times/week, the path doesn’t go all the way to Lechmere yet but should hopefully open in the spring

Hub, that's unfortunate. They used to be good for GPs specifically, but I had intake with them over a year ago.

Random question, but anyone who's been to the Star Market above I90, can you see or hear the traffic below you? Is it scary or not very interesting?? Always wondered that about that hotel above the pike too..

Here you go buddy. I’m sorry you don’t know how to use the internet. Also this is about having access to fiber. If OP denies there won’t be access. It’s sad instead of admitting you’re wrong you have to claim I “made it up”. Get real.
I’ll ask one more time since you keep ignoring it. What background do you have to make such claim?

In other words, you made it up and/or didn’t understand what you were reading. Sounds good.
