Boston's Flourishing Waterfront

Inventory of Boston luxury condos and single family homes is at an all-time low, according to MLSPIN. Low unsold inventory is a key indicator of a stable market, a welcome sign for the city. Our own Waterfront neighborhood proved to be among the strongest in Boston, with a 36% drop in available inventory since the same time last year. Overall, the city’s real estate inventory showed a 17% drop in the same time.

Listings are staying on the market for less time as a result – a 12% drop from last year citywide – and list prices are trending upward, with an aggregate 10% increase since last year. One of the key factors here is a lapse in new construction – during the low point of the recent recession, the proliferation of new residential construction came to a crawl in the heart of town. Now, with demand catching up to supply, new projects to fill the growing need for Boston Waterfront real estate are still a few years from becoming a reality for discriminating buyers.

Whether you are looking to buy or sell a Boston luxury condo, this strong market means that it is more important than ever before to work with an outstanding real estate team.
