September in Massachusetts is one of my favorite times of year. 🍎🍂

Summer isn’t quite over, but fall starts sneaking in — cider donuts, football Sundays, fairs, apple picking, and the first hints of foliage. And there is SO much happening this month.

I rounded up some of my favorite September happenings, restaurants worth trying, new spots to check out, weekend getaways, football-watching spots, and plenty of ideas to kick off your fall bucket list.

Basically, consider this your shortcut for the next time the group chat asks, “What should we do this weekend?” 👀

Save this one for later + send it to your favorite person to explore Massachusetts with.

🍁 Comment FALL and I’ll send you my full 2026 Massachusetts Fall Guide packed with even more local favorites, day trips, events, and things to do this season.

I’m Jackie Crawford-Ross 🏡 Massachusetts Realtor, a Massachusetts local and real estate agent sharing the best of life in Metrowest + Central MA (between school drop-offs, football/baseball fields, and helping people make moves 🏡). Follow along for more local recs!

August, you gave me a lot to be grateful for. 🤍

A whole lot of baseball, poolside reading, Patriots training camp, real estate wins (and a few curveballs 😅), and some pretty special moments with my favorite people.

The older I get, the more I realize these are the days. The busy ones. The messy ones. The ones filled with kids, work, friends, baseball, houses, sunshine and a million things happening at once.

So grateful I get to build a life, raise my family, and run a business right here in Massachusetts. ❤️

Swipe for a little peek into August ➡️

September, let’s see what you’ve got. 🍂

If we haven’t met yet, I’m Jackie! A Massachusetts local and top-producing Realtor helping people buy and sell throughout Metrowest & Central Massachusetts. So glad you’re here. 🤍

SOLD in Grafton 🏡🤍 And this one was a little bittersweet for me…

When these clients called and told me they were thinking about leaving Grafton, my immediate response was basically, “NOPE. Absolutely not.” 😂

But once I heard what they were planning for their next chapter, I got it. Sometimes the right move isn’t just about buying a bigger house or moving to a different town—it’s about making a decision that better fits the life you’re building.

So, we got to work.

We hit the market and immediately had great traction—lots of showings and multiple offers. We accepted an offer, started moving forward…and then our first buyers got cold feet and walked. 😩

Back on the market we went.

And sometimes real estate has a funny way of working itself out because the NEXT buyers felt like they were sent straight from the real estate gods. 😂🙌🏼 It was truly the perfect match between buyers and sellers.

After a whirlwind few days of putting all the pieces back together, we officially made it to the closing table. 🔑✨

My sellers are off to their next homeownership adventure, the new owners get to call this beautiful house home, and I’m over here pretending I’m totally fine with another family leaving Grafton. 🥹

This is also your reminder: a deal falling apart does NOT necessarily mean your sale is falling apart. Sometimes it just means we regroup, reposition, and find the buyer who was supposed to be there all along.

Thinking about selling your Massachusetts home this year?

DM me “SELL” and we can talk through what your home could be worth, what the market looks like in your town, and whether now actually makes sense for you. No pressure. 🤍

Sorry, but if you do any of these… I’m instantly clocking that you’re not from Massachusetts 👀😂

Around here, there are just certain things you know.

Apple picking is really about the cider donuts + family photo. 🍎
50° absolutely counts as shorts weather (not me but many MA people)
You call it a rotary, not a traffic circle.
The kids are asking for jimmies, not sprinkles.

And no Dunkin’ run is complete without Munchkins for the back seat.

Then there’s February vacation, Patriots’ Day, putting the snow pants away WAY too early…and knowing exactly how to pronounce Worcester. 😏

Massachusetts families — what did I miss?! I know there are some good ones. Drop your most Massachusetts “you just have to live here” moment below. 👇

I’m Jackie — Massachusetts lifer, mom, and Realtor sharing the little things that make living here feel like home. 🏡🤍

I may or may not have done a few of these things in the name of real estate. I plead the fifth. 😶

Moving to Massachusetts with kids? 🏡🍎 There are a few things I wish every parent knew before choosing a town.

Because finding the right home is only part of the decision. You’re also choosing the school community, the commute, the tax bill, the activities your kids will grow up doing—and the day-to-day lifestyle your family will actually live.

A few things I always tell families relocating here:

✨ The “best” school on paper may not be the best fit for your child.
🚗 25 miles does not always equal a 25-minute commute in Massachusetts.
🏡 Property taxes can vary significantly, so look beyond the purchase price.
🌆 You don’t have to live in Boston to have Boston be a regular part of your life.
📅 Yes, we have February and April school vacation weeks. Plan accordingly!
💰 Your real budget should include the lifestyle around the house—not just the mortgage.
⚾ And don’t underestimate youth sports and activities. They can become a huge part of your family’s community here.

As a Massachusetts Realtor and a parent, I know relocating with kids is about so much more than bedrooms, bathrooms and square footage.

It’s about finding the place where your family can actually build a life. 🤍

If Massachusetts is on your radar, save this post for later—and comment GUIDE below and I’ll send you my Neighborhood Guide to help you start figuring out where you belong.
