Before the closing of purchasing new property, a final water meter reading needs to be done to insure proper billing. The buyer's attorney must contact the Billing Office at (978) 374-2370 or e-mail Dodi Crowe to schedule the final meter reading prior to closing. Keys or entry instructions for transfer readings must be left with the Meter Division at 125 Amesbury Road at least one (1) day before the reading date. The property owner must provide notification of dogs and/or alarm systems. A fee of $60 will be charged for each real estate transfer reading.
