West Bridgewater is a small residential town bordering on the City of Brockton, and located at the junction of Routes 24 and 106. The Town is comfortably settled between Providence and Boston. This access along with availability of land has resulted in increased commercial, warehouse and industrial activity near the highway in this community which was once primarily agricultural. The town does, however, retain working farms which contribute to its scenic character.

It is estimated that the total monthly cost of your mortgage payment including Principal, Interest, Real Estate Taxes, Private Mortgage Insurance (PMI), Hazard Insurance and Homeowners Association will be approximately $1,748. This assumes a 30-year fixed rate mortgage at current Freddie Mac rate of 2.88% plus .25% with a 5% down payment. You cannot rely on this estimated amount, this is only an estimate. Your actual mortgage payment may be different based on the actual interest rate and other factors. This monthly mortgage payment is pre-tax and does not include the tax advantage of home ownership. To determine your monthly payment and net expense post tax effect, you should consult with your accountant or tax advisor.

All affordable homes will have a “Deed Restriction” that will be recorded with the mortgage at the time of purchase. This deed restriction in part, limits the amount the home can be resold for or refinanced for and requires that it be resold to another affordable buyer. A summary of the Deed Restriction is included herein.
