Renting versus Buying: Boston Waterfront Real Estate Might Be More Affordable Than You Think

Filed under: Advice for Home Buyers, Boston Waterfront Real Estate Market, CL Waterfront Properties NEWS. • Tags: , . By

Let us find your new home!

Thanks to the current combination of low mortgage rates and reasonably priced properties on the market, many people have found that it has become less expensive to be a homeowner than a renter.   As Boston waterfront real estate prices have begun to stabilize and rents have continued to increase, many consumers have realized that their monthly mortgage payment on a home (after a 20% down payment) would be less than their monthly rent on the same property. In the Boston market, the median monthly mortgage payment has remained just about equal with median monthly rental prices. This presents an interesting question to potential homebuyers: would you rather pay the same monthly amount for a property and gain real equity, or simply pay rent which you will never see again? Now, more than ever, this may be the ideal time to become a homebuyer with mortgage rates at all-time lows.

New Development On The Rise In Boston’s Popular Neighborhoods

Filed under: Back Bay Luxury Condos, Boston Real Estate Market, Boston Waterfront Luxury Buildings, CL Waterfront Properties NEWS, Waterfront Boston. • Tags: , . By

New developments are on the rise in Boston

According to a Boston Globe article* published this morning, area developers are going before city officials this evening to seek approval to build several new residential towers. The creation of these new structures would add more than 1,400 units to the city. Low interest and vacancy rates, coupled with the high lease prices brought about current market conditions, have created an outstanding opportunity for developers to capitalize on large potential profits. Luxury Boston real estate is no longer limited to brownstones and waterfront condos – rental units in luxury developments across town are a hot ticket in today’s economic climate. Developers are eager to take advantage of this opportunity to build throughout the city, and to bring in higher profits than have been possible over the past several years.

The five proposed projects include a 404-unit apartment tower on Stuart Street; 318 back bay luxury apartments in a high-rise at Copley Place; 240 units along the Greenway in rapidly up and coming Chinatown; a 236-unit tower in the Seaport district; and 210 units in prime space on Boylston Street in the Fenway.

Mayor Thomas Menino commented that he and other city officials now receive proposals for residential development projects nearly every day, something he said has not seen for several years. According to George Fantini, chairman of mortgage banking firm Fantini & Gorga, “There has never been a better time in the last 40 years to develop a multifamily project in Boston.”

For more information about luxury Boston real estate developments, please contact Scott Accorsini or CL Waterfront Properties for more information. Our team of Boston real estate experts will be happy to help.

Written by Diane Giacobbi

Boston is not only filled with universities and students, hospitals and doctors, it is filled with dogs and their humans.  Each week I receive at least one inquiry for a sale or rental of a pet friendly property.  No longer just a suburban pet, the urban dog is welcome in many places – in certain outdoor patio dining, in private dog parks, and in some designated areas of public places.  The services for these pets are innumerable – dog boutiques for accessories and natural food items; doggie day care with transportation; daily walks; overnight vacation services, and in home veterinary calls.

Many condominium buildings along Boston’s Waterfront are pet friendly.  As a lover of dogs, I do everything in my power to find a home for my wonderful canine residents and their people.

Here is a current list of some of the pet friendly buildings in the Waterfront:

Intercontinental: Owners and TenantsBoston Dog Park 

Rowes Wharf: Owners only with Management approval

Harbor Towers: Owners only

Commercial Wharf: Owners and Tenants

Lewis Wharf: No Dogs

Mariner: Owners and Tenants

Bulfinch: Owners and Tenants

Union Wharf: Owners only

Lincoln Wharf: No Dogs

Burroughs Wharf: Owners and Tenants with Restriction

Beautiful luxury Boston condo on the Burroughs Wharf waterfrontBoston Homes recently featured one of the luxury condominiums at Burroughs Wharf. No. 311 has been listed for $2.699 million and it’s no mystery why. The property offers an array of wonderful features.

The north end of the building juts into the harbor and is considered the “nose.” The best views can be seen from this part of the building and of course No. 311 is one of these coveted condos. The floor to ceiling windows offer picturesque views of the water. On a typical day you can watch ferries, sailboats, watertaxies, and tug boats glide by from your couch.

Additionally this condo features two balconies which also overlook the harbor – perfect for relaxing on a summer afternoon. But this space isn’t only great during the summer. In the winter, the beautiful light oak floors visually warm the entire space and a wood-burning fireplace in the living room provides a cozy escape from those chilly Boston winters.

Another benefit of living in this fabulous building right on the water is the fact that it comes with two mooring slips. If you’re an avid sailor and are searching for the perfect Boston waterfront real estate, Burroughs Wharf No. 311 could be the place for you!
