Whether newcomer, visitor or long time resident, people agree that South County is a special place. The unique combination of its shoreline climate, strong sense of community and top-notch schools and recreational facilities make this the fastest growing area in Rhode Island. Come to South County and you won't want to leave. Many are attracted to the pristine shoreline, with its unspoiled dunes, salt ponds and even islands. Others prefer the rural serenity of inland South County where you can still see dairy cows and horses grazing.

But, you don't have to give up the conveniences of modern living to adopt the South County lifestyle. The commercial centers of Wickford, Wakefield, Narragansett and Westerly, to name a few, offer the amenities of modern living, and of course, the state's newest addition of the Providence Place Mall is only a short 30 minute drive. Many new residents are drawn to the state because of the quality of our schools. Boasting high test scores and progressive thinking, South County schools share a reputation for being among the best in the state.
Our cultural industry of music, dance, visual art and theatre is an integral characteristic of our talented diverse population. From concerts in the park to art gallery opening receptions and artists' studio tours, there is always something special happening within our thriving arts community for everyone to enjoy - residents and visitors alike.
I bid you welcome to South County - a special place where it's easy to feel right at home. |  | | | Our Rhode Island Reds... | |

Real Estate Contracts >Taking It With You
Before you list your home for sale, take a careful look around. Are there some items you will want to take with you? There may be a dining room chandelier that has been in your family for three generations, a ceiling fan in the master bedroom, or the bookcases in the den that look built-in but are not.
Normally all fixtures are conveyed to the new owners when a house is sold. This includes anything that is attached to walls or ceilings and, in some areas, all major appliances that are installed in the house. If you have fixtures that you don't want to convey, tell your agent what you want excluded from the agreement at the time you list your property for sale.
If it is convenient, it is best to remove any light fixtures or ceiling fans you plan to take with you and replace them before the property is shown to prospective buyers. List all items that are not being sold with the house on your home fact sheet to ensure that they will not become an issue when a buyer makes an offer.
