Rachel Slade’s off-kilter take on Hub dwellings.
By Rachel Slade
Pahk the Cah – For $350K
Life just keeps getting tougher for Back Bay die-hards, as ex-suburbanites pour into the city with their pedigreed dogs and black BMW’s. So when circling the block for three hours after a hard day’s work loses its charm, it’s time to invest in some asphalt. But with only a handful of parking spots listed on the MLS, the Back Bay’s alleys are precious property, indeed. Case in point: Though a two-vehicle tandem space between Commonwealth Avenue and Newbury Street is exposed to all the elements – snow (BYO shovel), inebriated students – it costs about $1,000 a square foot, making it some of the priciest pavement in the world. Get a Zipcar account, you say?
That’s part of the problem–the car-sharing powerhouse has already gobbled up 107 spots around the neighborhood. Where’s teleportation when you need it?
Address: 132 Commonwealth Avenue, #5/6 Listing Price: $350,000, Listing Agent: Shelagh Brennan, Cabot and Company, 617-896-5002, cabotandcompany.com, Stats: One big, expensive slab of pavement in the Back Bay.

Happy New Year!
Congratulations, you have been hired! According to a recent article on Forbes.com, Boston tied for 13th of cities to be hiring this year. Overall, there is an 11% net hiring expectancy in the U.S.
What does this mean to you as a new hire and possible relocater to Boston? Consider that rental prices in Boston are already high and availability extremely low. This is before this job growth news!
5 Tips from Cabot and Company Real Estate
1. Find a reputable real estate agency. Our agents at Cabot and Company in Boston’s Back Bay are experienced professionals. Visit www.cabotandcompany.com or call 617-262-6200.
2. Begin your search as early as possible. As soon as you get the employment green light, preferably 60-90 days in advance, reach out and start your search.
3. Identify the key neighborhoods you will live in. Keep transportation and proximity to work in mind.
4. Make some transportation decisions. Boston has a great public transit system. The city has recently added many bicycle lanes. Boston is a walking city and there are many very accessible short term car rental options.
5. Organize paperwork and funds in advance of finding an apartment so you can act quickly when you see a good option. Once again, the seasoned agents at Cabot and Company real estate can assist you in your search.

Rent Rates for Boston Retail Space
Rental rates in the Boston retail market are slightly lower than last quarter (down 0.2%) and essentially flat from one year ago (down 0.07%). In the Back Bay, quoted retail rent rates for the third quarter averaged $60.87 per square foot; in the South End, $31.22 per square foot; and the Financial District, $35.00 per square foot.
Largest Lease Signings in Greater Boston
The largest lease signings of 2011 include a 60,000 square foot lease by Stop & Shop at Atlantic Plaza (Reading, MA), a 45,000 square foot lease by Whole Food Market in Lynnfield, MA, and most recently, a 43,998 square foot lease by Restoration Hardware in Boston’s Back Bay. Restoration Hardware will be moving into the former Louis Boston building.
Improvement in the Market
While rent rates are down, the Boston retail market showed improvement in the third quarter. The vacancy rate is down to 4.6% for the Boston market. In the Back Bay, which includes premier shopping destination Newbury Street, vacancy is down to 3.6%.
With the improvement of the market, now is a wise time to invest in retail properties. Single-tenant, triple-net leases, for instance, are becoming increasingly popular as investment opportunities; particularly with the recent ups-and-downs of the stock market.
Call Eric Shabshelowitz at 617-896-5010 or email him at eric@cabotandcompany.com to learn more about retail leasing and sales opportunities throughout the Greater Boston area.
