boston real estate: Go Hard or Go Home - 04/24/12 01:17 PM
This Spring has been one of the most competitive I’ve seen in years. As a result many buyers feel like they can’t catch a break. In many markets throughout the country, the Spring market has given birth to property bidding wars of the like we have not seen in years. This turn around has been fueled by historically low interest rates, improvement in the unemployment numbers, lower home prices relative to the peak and increased optimism about the economy. For home buyers it is important to understand how to make an offer. The very first step in the process of making an offer is understanding the market value

boston real estate: The Top 4 Reasons Your Home Hasn't Sold - 04/23/12 12:19 PM
If you are trying to sell your home but it continues to linger on the market, here are the top 4 reason why: 1. Pricing – If your home is overpriced, you will miss out on many buyers that would have viewed your home had it not been overpriced. If you price a home too low, you will increase the likelihood of a bidding war, which is great for any seller. If you price it too high your home may linger on the market and become less attractive to buyers. The longer a home sits on the market the less a buyer is interested in viewing the

The Boston Real Estate market appears to be poised for a rebound in January 2012.

boston real estate: Boston Real Estate - Renting vs Owning - 01/24/12 06:05 PM
I showed a Newly renovated 3 family in Dorchester today that is listed for $229,000. When the potnetial buyer asked me about the estimated monthly mortgage payment, I did quick calculation and realized that it would be approximately $1500 per month with 3.5% down. At that moment it hit me…you can own a 3 family in the Dorchester Neighborhood of Boston MA for the same price that it would cost you to rent a 3 bedroom apartment. For me, this is a sign that we are at or near the bottom of the market in Boston. If you’re on the

boston real estate: Are Short Sales Worth the Wait? - 01/11/12 04:09 PM
Recently many of my clients have asked me if they should consider short sales in their home search in 2012. My quick answer is yes but be ready to wait. I like to call it patience equity because they obviously take longer but they enable the buyer to have instant equity in the home due to being sold below market value. When I first started working on short sales in 2007, the response time from banks was much worse and in many cases the banks would simply reject an offer with no real counter. The other issue was that there was

Throughout the recession, cities like Boston and NYC have seen their real estate markets remain relatively stable but as the real estate market continues to recover, we are starting see some signs of weakness even in these stronger markets.
