According to a recent Boston Herald article there is intense competition for multifamily homes in and around Boston. The reason stated is due to three categories of buyers including contractors, investors, and owner-occupants. The Herald says “Driving the trend are a rebounding housing market, low interest rates, and resilient rents in Greater Boston”
MLS reports in the month of April, 61 multi-families sold and 191 went under contract not to mention inventory is down 18% from last year.
HERE IS YOUR OPPORTUNITY! (Seen below) We have a terrific 3 family in South Boston already proving a 5% cap rate and room to go to 6%! Fully leased near public transportation and the beach is 2 blocks away!

Boston’s office market started the year off on a strong foot. Overall vacancy is down to 15.3% – during the space period one year ago, vacancy was at 16.5% – according to Richards Barry Joyce & Partners. The Financial District, Back Bay, Seaport, Midtown and North Station markets each saw the vacancy rate fall from January through March.
Boston’s Back Bay and East Cambridge/Kendall Square are two of the area’s hottest markets. Both have seen the asking rent rates for Class A space rise more than 20% since 2010. In the first quarter, asking rents in the Back Bay were the highest in the area at $55.20.

According to a color expert at the Paint Quality Institute, “color psychology” can help you choose paint colors that set the right mood for a room. Here is what the experts say about the mood that each color creates:
|
|
Blue slows the heart rate and lowers body temperature. Ideal for: Bedrooms, but not dining rooms. |
|
|
Orange is another happy color, but is more attention-getting. Ideal for: Accents and living rooms. |
|
|
Green has a calming effect, and is the color of many fruits and vegetables. Ideal for: Bedrooms and dining rooms. |
|
|
Purple is proven to stimulate brain activity. Ideal for: Bedrooms and studies. |
|
|
Red radiates energy and excitement. Ideal for: Dining rooms and adult bedrooms, but not children’s rooms. |
|
|
Black imparts elegance, sophistication and formality. Ideal for: Accents. |
|
|
Yellow, like sunshine, imparts optimism and happiness. Ideal for: Master bathrooms, dinettes and living rooms. |
|
|
White conveys peace, simplicity and spaciousness. Ideal for: Small rooms and as a contrast to accent walls. |
Paint is just one of many details that need to be considered to get your property sold. Buyers are meticulous, so these details are important. Let our experts show you how to maximize your property’s potential.
We want to list your property to sell!

A few things to highlight. The amount of available retail space on Beacon Hill is very low, which is easy to see in taking a stroll down Charles Street. Retail spaces on Newbury Street in the Back Bay are also filling up. While the quoted rent rates are useful to gauge trends, they do not capture actual averages (since numerous properties do not publish quoted rates).
Retail Space Sales in Boston
With retail rents still high, the sales market for retail properties is hot. We are seeing two groups making moves on these properties. First, investors are actively looking to increase their retail holdings, particularly in prime downtown areas. Second, would-be tenants are looking at opportunities to purchase instead of rent. Currently, there are numerous opportunities for owner-occupants to buy and have their monthly costs (i.e. monthly payments for mortgage, condo fees, etc.) be less than current rental rates.
