Maplewood, Short Hills and Summit Weather  This region of New Jersey is known for its agreeable climate. It’s why after the railroads were built and eventually commuter train lines and freeways, it became dotted with desirable bedroom communities free from the heat and humidity of Manhattan. Beginning in April evenings are still a little fresh hovering around 40 degrees, but never bitter cold while daytime temperatures start to warm averaging around 60 degrees. With the arrival of May, evening temperatures rise to about 50 degrees and days hover around 70. Summer is particularly lovely with June through August days in the low to mid 80s and evening in the high 60s. What makes it especially nice is that unlike NYC, the humidity tends never to go higher than about 50 percent on a summer afternoon, a refreshing change from sticky Manhattan. September offers still mild days in the mid 70s with evenings in the mid 50s. October marks the arrival of fall, but it remains comfortable with averages of 42 degrees in the evenings and 65 degrees during the day. Things begin to cool off in November with daytime highs in the mid 50s although evenings do not fall below freezing, with an average of 33 degrees. December and January have cold and crisp nights in the 20s to low 30s while December days run in the low forties with January somewhat cooler even, with an average daytime high of 38 degrees. The average yearly snowfall of 4 to 8 inches happens from late November through February and the average yearly rainfall of 40 inches occurs mostly in spring, with May being the wettest month.

Animal House >Houses and Pets
Many real estate agents are animal lovers and have pets of our own, but we have all shared stories of having our fingers or ankles nipped by furry creatures during a showing. We have opened the front door to the home we are showing only to have a purebred Persian kitten scoot toward the nearest busy street.
If you have pets and are going to put your house on the market, be sure to work out the showing arrangements carefully. It is important for us to be able to communicate to our colleagues what to expect when they pass through your front door. It is rare for pets to pose significant problems, but big dogs can be menacing. Buyers or agents may be allergic or even a little phobic about dogs or cats.
It is difficult to get a buyer excited about your home if he or she is sneezing continuously or unwilling to cross the threshold because your dog is barking away intruders. If your agent knows there might be a problem, they can arrange ahead of time for you to walk the dog, vacuum the cat dander or do whatever is necessary to make sure that the showing goes smoothly.
