Boston Real Estate: What is Your Boston Home or Condo Worth?

Boston Home PricesWhen I make an analysis of how best to price a property, I first look at any relevant sold, pending, and available homes. These are what is known as "comparables."This process takes into consideration much more than square footage, number of bedrooms and bathrooms, or neighborhood.It also looks at what type of building the unit is in, where in the building it is placed, what type of renovations if any have been done, the amount of light, views, ceiling height, parking availability, the behavior of the current market, and more.In the past 12 months, my listings have sold for an average of 103.5% of their asking price, with an 8 average/4 median days on market until an offer was accepted.When listing your Boston home or condo for sale, the most important decision you make is how to price it.Even in this current active market, overpricing your property has serious consequences. Your home will attract the most motivated buyers out there right when it comes on the market. If it's priced too high, you won't get those serious buyers in tosee it.I have been making these analyses for more than two decades. Whether your property is located in Boston's South End, Back Bay, Beacon Hill, South Boston, Waterfront,North End,or any of the core downtown neighborhoods or surrounding communities, I can give you good advice on pricing.What is your property worth?Doyou have questions about buying or selling Boston real estate?In my 24+ years in the Boston real estate market, I've made it my priority to develop anextensive knowledge of the city, neighborhoods, buildings, people, and the many issues involved in the local real estate market.Please call me at617-584-9790, or email me by clicking the blue button below. Boston real estate
