Timing is Everything in Boston Real Estate Sales, If the Price is Right

Categories: Emerging Markets> Hot Markets

Listings that priced correctly still sell quickly in today’s uncertain real estate market. I put two listings online recently that sold the first weekend. Some might ay it was luck however both of my sellers decided to list now, normally a slow time of the year primarily because there was no competition in their particular market segment. In fact, in many segments the inventory remains very low at this point in 2008. Both of these listings stood out in the sense that they were unique and priced right.

952 Centre Street, Jamaica Plain MA was listed at $1,400,000

Quality taken to the next level! Maplehurst Builders renovated this total gem of a Carriage House in 1996 and the current owners took it one step further, adding a gas fireplace, full surround sound TV / Entertainment system, and renovated the kitchen and bathrooms. Set back from the road, and located on a gorgeous, landscaped lot, this dramatic and private oasis opens up to large, terraced decks and a sunny rear yard with direct access to the Arnold Arboretum. Country living in Boston!
