The Town of Arlington has the most coherent write up: Excise Tax Summary Don't feel like doing the math? Estimating $25 for every thousand of your vehicle for new cars will get you close. For old cars, Estimate $13 for every thousand of value. Quick valuations at edmunds.com. Ed. Note, the older your car, the less you'll pay in excise tax. New car owners get whacked pretty good!

Wicked Cool Customer Comments

As first time buyers we were clueless as to to what we even wanted/ valued. Matt helped us sort through the different options and helped us find a great house. After 6 months in the house we could not be happier!

-G.T., Berlin

(Matt) "Remained patient and helped (me) remain patient at the most discouraging moments. Matt backs up his advice with data and past experience. I feel Matt does what is best for the customer and does an incredible amount of leg work where there is nothing or little for him to gain immediately. I've heard a lot of horror stories where it seemed the Realtor did what was in their interest. I feel Matt is sincere and has my interests at heart. I would have an extremely hard time finding another Realtor like him. " -J.L., Charlton

Matt is the best person (for real estate agents) I have ever met, in my last 6-8 months of house hunting. We recently closed our house with extreme help of Matt, on every corner. Which, without him, would not have been possible. - SM, Shrewsbury

As a first time home buyer, the process seemed daunting and stressful. I originally worked with another agent who did no more than plug in what I wanted and shoot me an automated list of houses to look at with little else as far as attention to me. Seeing as I could do that myself, I quickly went looking elsewhere for guidance. Matt was easy to communicate with through email and phone. I provided my thoughts on what I was looking for and he provided honest feedback about what was and wasn't realistic. When he showed us houses, it was always an opportunity to learn about what to look out for and never a pressure to buy. He has always been responsive and still finds the time to answer all my questions after the deal is all said and done. This type of service and dedication is hard to find. I can honestly say I would go to no one else in the future. H. Shea, Upton.

Matt recently sold our house in Shrewsbury. His knowledge of the current market and the area were instrumental in finding the right buyer. Matt handled all the details with such professionalism it enabled us to move smoothly through the selling process with minimal stress. He was always available and in communication with us keeping us appraised of events so we could make critical decisions as needed. We're in the process of looking for a new house, we wouldn't use anyone else! DSC, Shrewsbury
