Vertex Tops Off At Newest Fan Pier Building

Vertex Tops off at New Fan Pier Building on the Boston Waterfront Real Estate

New Fan Pier Building - Boston Waterfront

Vertex Pharmaceuticals iron workers placed the final beam atop its second building in Fan Pier last Thursday, September 6th. This moves Vertex that much closer to their dream of moving to the Boston Harbor Waterfront. Joe Fallon, President and CEO of the Fallon Co. says, “This Vertex project is significant, not just for Fan Pier, but for this part of the city…Lots of other development will occur now as a result and that’s really what we’ve been seeking”.

Once complete, the Fan Pier waterfront real estate development will include eight buildings comprised of offices, residences, retail shops, restaurants, and hotel rooms, as well as a park and a marina. 50 Northern Avenue will serves as Vertex’s global headquarters, according to the Boston Business Journal. In July, Fallon topped off the first Vertex building. Now, Fallon plans to move his focus towards the construction of the residential portion of the mixed-use development. Fallon hopes to break ground next year on the 15 story luxury high rise building.

Mass home sales on the rise, outpaced by condo sales

Condominium sale prices rose in May to 50% above the same month last year

Condo Sales On The Rise

With home prices on the rise as the housing market recovers, Mass single family homes saw a 35% increase in average sale price this May, as compared to the same month in 2011. Great interest rates and prices still on the rebound mean that opportunity is in the air for MA home buyers. The news is even better for sellers, especially those looking to market a Boston waterfront condo. Condo sale prices rose 1% above their level at the same time last year, slightly above the statewide average price for single family homes – which is quite rare.

According to the Greater Boston Real Estate Board, condo prices here in the city saw an even greater jump, showing a 4.4% increase over last year.

Coupled with the lowest inventory on market in years (a trend that has continued in eight of the past nine months), this is a great sign of a recovering market, and a welcome change for sellers – and for us! Year-to-date, CL Waterfront has sold as much property so far in 2012 as we did in all of 2011.  With over $55 million already closed or under contract, CL Waterfront continues to lead the market in 2012. To find out more or schedule a showing of one of our exceptional Boston waterfront condos, contact CL Waterfront Properties today.

A Mild Boston Winter

Due to the mild winter, many owners in the Waterfront / North End neighborhood have decided to put their properties on the market earlier than normal.   Even regardless of the unusually warm weather, the market appears to be getting stronger.  We have seen an influx of both motivated buyers and sellers in the marketplace of late. While typically New Englanders are battling the elements at this time of year, we have had the luxury of a mild winter, making it much easier for buyers to look at potential Boston waterfront properties and for sellers to showcase their homes.

At CL Waterfront Properties, we have a very positive outlook for the housing market in 2012, and urge sellers not to delay – put your home on the market as soon as possible!  Within just the first two weeks of the year, there have been ten new properties listed in the Waterfront / North End neighborhood, and there are currently seventeen properties that either have accepted offers or are under agreement. It’s an exciting time to be involved in luxury Boston real estate! For more information about the selling and listing prices for the Waterfront/North End in the near year, please contact Scott Accorsini today.

North End / Waterfront Reviews Zoning and Licensing Process

Zoning process revisited

At the January 12, 2012 NEWRA meeting held at the Nazzaro Community Center, there was a unanimous vote to revise the procedure for reviewing zoning and licensing applications for Boston waterfront properties. In the past the applicant needed to make a presentation in front of the full membership at monthly meetings. In a 28-0 vote, the association has agreed that it is not necessary to bring the matters of zoning or licensing in front of the entire membership if the issue does not raise community concerns.

Zoning and licensing matters have been the main focus of many of the NEWRA meetings in the past. With this revision, it will allow the membership to focus on other important issues that may surface in the community. Local businesses will also be saving time and money which would typically be allocated for community review. The zoning and licensing committee will continue to review all applications and enforce the neighbor notification policy.

To find out more about how this decision will impact the area, or to find out more about our available Boston Waterfront real estate, contact CL Waterfront Properties today.

Holiday Spirit in Downtown Boston

With the holidays right around the corner, sales activity for Boston waterfront properties has increased. Not only has this activity been a trend along the Waterfront, November marked the fifth straight month in which home sales have improved nationwide, according to an article in the Boston Globe, December 22, 2011.

Real estate professionals agree that sellers have become more realistic about their Boston luxury condos‘ values. The Boston Globe recently quoted Sheryl Simon, a Principal with Benoit, Mizner, Simon & Co., about this topic: “The sellers have now realized that they are not going to get the prices their neighbors got in 2005, 2006, 2007”. Not only have home sales increased, but cash buyers are up about 30 percent compared to this time last year.

Whether you’re a cash buyer or taking out a mortgage, now is a great time with to buy, with motivated sellers and rates in the low 4’s. Don’t hesitate – contact CL Waterfront Properties today! Happy Holidays!

QR Codes – The Hottest Thing in Real Estate!

Filed under: Boston Waterfront Real Estate Market, Carmela Laurella, CL Waterfront Properties NEWS. • Tags: , . By

QR Codes are revolutionizing Boston real estate!

14 million Americans used QR codes this past June alone, according to a recent ComScore study – and useage is rising dramatically. You’ve probably already seen QR codes, although you might not know exactly what they do or what purpose they serve.

QR codes work a lot like the bar codes you see on items in the grocery store – with one major exception. Bar codes store minimal info about an item, typically the stock number and often also the price. QR codes are keyed to a specific URL – so they can take you with a quick scan of a smartphone to the web address of an amazing Boston luxury condo! We have been using QR codes for quite a while now, on pretty much any printed material we generate. The codes are a very simple and useful way to give people access to more information than you can share with someone in print – and by bringing people to your website, you can interact with them on a much more personal, social level.

Click the QR codes you see on listing sheets in the window of our Waterfront offices, on materials you print from this site, and on brochures you see at our open houses to go directly to full details about any of our fabulous Boston waterfront properties. To find out more about the luxury Boston real estate we represent or to learn more about how we use technology to help our clients sell for top dollar or find the perfect new home, contact CL Waterfront Properties today – or scan one of our QR codes with your smartphone!
