    Subject: 969 Chestnut St Unit B — quick status check Hi Debbie, I’m reaching out about 969 Chestnut Street, Unit B in Newton Upper Falls. I saw the listing information shows an October 1 advertised availability, but I couldn’t confirm the current status from the brokerage. Could you please confirm whether the unit is still active, and if so, whether it’s currently vacant/ready and who approves any remaining cleaning work before handover? If there’s a window for prep work, I’d be glad to review it briefly. Best, You
