Does the house history add value, or does it just give away too much?
Start with two folders: one for verified home history that supports value, and one for private records that stay off-market. Keep architecture, restoration, published mentions, and documented ownership history in the first. Move family timelines, routines, personal correspondence, and anything security-sensitive to the second. Around Rhode Island's legacy and waterfront homes, we find discretion usually makes the story stronger.
If a legacy or waterfront listing is on your horizon, we can help edit that file with care.
