🏠 Boston Rental Market Update | Back Bay, Beacon Hill, Charlestown & Savin Hill

Happy Tuesday, everyone! This week's rental report covers four Boston neighborhoods — and the signals are very different depending on which side of the lease you're on. Here's what's happening this week. 📊

🏠 Back Bay — Less Competition This Month
Volume dropped from 112 to 81 rentals this month and above-asking activity fell from 18 to just 8. That tells you the level of competition renters were dealing with here has eased meaningfully. Studios dropped this month — that's your best category in Back Bay right now if you're a renter. One-bedrooms and two-bedrooms both rose. Units are still moving fast at 26 days so don't wait too long, but you have more room than you did last month.

One note on the three-bedroom figure — the number on screen reflects ultra-luxury inventory specifically and is not representative of typical Back Bay rental pricing.

Back Bay Numbers
🔹 Closings: 112 → 81 ⬇️
🔹 Days on Market: 25 → 26
🔹 At Asking: 53 → 66 ⬆️
🔹 Above Asking: 18 → 8 ⬇️
🔹 Median Rent: $4,436 → $5,438
🔹 Studio: $3,516 → $3,234 ⬇️
🔹 1BR: $3,249 → $3,556 ⬆️
🔹 2BR: $6,389 → $6,577 ⬆️
🔹 3BR: $9,236 → $23,475* (ultra-luxury — not typical pricing)

🏠 Beacon Hill — Renters Are Gaining Room
Beacon Hill slowed down this month in a way that clearly benefits renters. 42 closings versus 51 last month. Days on market jumped from 21 to 36 — apartments are sitting longer before they lease. Above asking dropped from 7 to just 3. One-bedrooms and two-bedrooms both dipped. Three-bedrooms dropped significantly from $13,100 to $6,900.

If you've been looking in Beacon Hill and feeling like the market was moving too fast, this month gives you more breathing room than you've had in a while.

Beacon Hill Numbers
🔹 Closings: 51 → 42 ⬇️
🔹 Days on Market: 21 → 36 ⬆️
🔹 At Asking: 40 → 34
🔹 Above Asking: 7 → 3 ⬇️
🔹 Median Rent: $3,110 → $4,306
🔹 Studio: $2,422 → $2,419 ➡️
🔹 1BR: $3,120 → $3,064 ⬇️
🔹 2BR: $3,844 → $3,777 ⬇️
🔹 3BR: $13,100 → $6,900 ⬇️

🔥 Charlestown — Landlord Standout of the Week
Charlestown is the clearest landlord story in this week's report. 39 closings, up from 36, and above-asking activity jumped from 9 to 12. Two-bedrooms rose significantly — from $4,341 to $4,859 — making that the strongest unit size for landlords in Charlestown right now. Studios and one-bedrooms held essentially flat. Units are moving in just 20 days.

Landlords with available units in Charlestown — especially two-bedrooms — should price with confidence this month. This market is working in your favor.

Charlestown Numbers
🔹 Closings: 36 → 39 ⬆️
🔹 Days on Market: 15 → 20
🔹 At Asking: 23 → 25
🔹 Above Asking: 9 → 12 ⬆️
🔹 Median Rent: $4,569 → $4,014
🔹 Studio: $2,350 → $2,359 ➡️
🔹 1BR: $3,372 → $3,367 ➡️
🔹 2BR: $4,341 → $4,859 ⬆️
🔹 3BR: $5,562 → $4,900 ⬇️

💡 Savin Hill — Renter Opportunity of the Week
Savin Hill is the best renter opportunity across all four markets this week and the numbers make a strong case. Volume picked up slightly to 19 closings. Days on market dropped from 59 to 47 — things are moving faster. But above-asking activity fell from 4 to just 1. And median rent came down.

The unit-size breakdown is where it really shows. Studios, one-bedrooms, and two-bedrooms all dropped this month. Three-bedrooms bucked the trend and rose — the one landlord-friendly category here. But if you're a renter looking at a studio, one-bedroom, or two-bedroom in Savin Hill right now, the data is clearly on your side.

Savin Hill Numbers
🔹 Closings: 17 → 19 ⬆️
🔹 Days on Market: 59 → 47 ⬇️ ⚡
🔹 At Asking: 11 → 18 ⬆️
🔹 Above Asking: 4 → 1 ⬇️
🔹 Median Rent: $3,838 → $3,668 ⬇️
🔹 Studio: $2,650 → $1,800 ⬇️
🔹 1BR: $3,575 → $2,812 ⬇️
🔹 2BR: $3,500 → $3,150 ⬇️
🔹 3BR: $3,825 → $4,550 ⬆️

💡 Bottom Line This Week:
Back Bay competition has eased and studios are your opening there. Beacon Hill is slowing down and giving renters more time and more room to negotiate. Charlestown is the landlord standout — especially for two-bedroom units. And Savin Hill is the clearest renter opportunity of the four markets this week with smaller units dropping across the board.

Boston Real Estate Market Update | Back Bay, Beacon Hill, Charlestown & Savin Hill

Here's your weekly Boston market pulse — and this week the neighborhoods are telling very different stories depending on where you look. Some markets are cooling off and giving buyers more room, while others are still running hot for sellers. Here's what's happening. 📊

🏠 Back Bay — Buyers Are Getting More Room
The Back Bay condo market slowed down this month. 23 closings compared to 30 last month, and homes are taking longer to sell — 58 days on average versus 40. Only 1 condo sold above asking this month, down from 9. That's a dramatic drop and it tells you the intense competition buyers were facing here has eased considerably. Median price actually rose to $2,398,913 but with fewer bidding wars, buyers have more negotiating room than they did last month.

On the single-family side, 2 homes closed after sitting for an average of 326 days on market. Nothing sold above asking and everything sold below asking both months. This remains a very slow, very buyer-friendly segment — sellers in this category need to be patient and realistic on price.

Back Bay Condos
🔹 Closed: 30 → 23
🔹 Days on Market: 40 → 58
🔹 Above Asking: 9 → 1
🔹 Below Asking: 13 → 10
🔹 Median Price: $2,163,833 → $2,398,913

Back Bay Single-Family
🔹 Closed: 0 → 2
🔹 Days on Market: N/A → 326
🔹 Above Asking: 0 → 0
🔹 Median Price: $11,500,000 → $10,050,000
🔹 100% sold below asking both months

🏠 Beacon Hill — Condos Taking Longer, Buyers Gaining Leverage
Beacon Hill condos saw 16 closings, essentially flat from 15 last month, but homes are sitting on the market longer — 52 days on average versus 29. Above asking activity dropped from 3 to just 1 condo. And 13 of 16 sold below asking, up from 8 of 15 last month. Median price climbed to $2,519,281 — prices are still rising — but the combination of longer days and more under-asking closings tells you buyers have more leverage here than the price tag suggests.

Single-family had 3 closings, up from 2, but homes averaged a staggering 390 days on market versus 169 last month. Nothing sold above asking either month and 100% sold below asking. This remains firmly a buyer's market in Beacon Hill single-family.

Beacon Hill Condos
🔹 Closed: 15 → 16
🔹 Days on Market: 29 → 52
🔹 Above Asking: 3 → 1
🔹 Below Asking: 8 → 13
🔹 Median Price: $1,703,327 → $2,519,281

Beacon Hill Single-Family
🔹 Closed: 2 → 3
🔹 Days on Market: 169 → 390
🔹 Above Asking: 0 → 0
🔹 Median Price: $6,263,333 → $6,350,000
🔹 100% sold below asking both months

🔥 Charlestown — Still the Hottest Market This Week
Charlestown is the standout for sellers this week and it's not close. On the condo side, 19 closings with 7 selling above asking and only 7 selling below — a significant improvement from last month when 15 of 26 were going below asking. Median price rose to $1,130,968.

But the real seller story is in single-family. 9 closings, up from 7, and 8 of those 9 sold above asking — up from 4 last month. Only 1 sold below asking. Median price came in at $1,808,272. Charlestown single-family is as competitive as we have seen it in recent months. Sellers, if you have been thinking about listing — this is your moment. Buyers, come in prepared and ready to compete.

Charlestown Condos
🔹 Closed: 26 → 19
🔹 Days on Market: 22 → 28
🔹 Above Asking: 8 → 7
🔹 Below Asking: 15 → 7
🔹 Median Price: $1,046,500 → $1,130,968

Charlestown Single-Family
🔹 Closed: 7 → 9
🔹 Days on Market: 21 → 20
🔹 Above Asking: 4 → 8
🔹 Below Asking: 2 → 1
🔹 Median Price: $1,982,143 → $1,808,272

🏠 Savin Hill — Slowing Down, Worth Watching
Savin Hill condos slowed this month — 6 closings compared to 10 last month, and days on market ticked up from 25 to 36. Only 1 condo sold above asking, down from 3, and median price held flat at $757,833. The under-asking situation actually improved though — only 1 sold below asking versus 7 last month. A quieter month overall but not alarming.

Single-family had no closings this month or last month. The median reference price has stayed unchanged at $1,395,000 since January — a stable but inactive segment right now.

Savin Hill Condos
🔹 Closed: 10 → 6
🔹 Days on Market: 25 → 36
🔹 Above Asking: 3 → 1
🔹 Below Asking: 7 → 1
🔹 Median Price: $757,833 → $757,833

Savin Hill Single-Family
🔹 Closed: 0 → 0
🔹 Median Price: $1,395,000 — unchanged since January

💡 Bottom Line This Week:
Charlestown is the clear standout for sellers — especially single-family where bidding wars are back in force. Back Bay and Beacon Hill are giving buyers more breathing room than they've had in a while with longer days on market and fewer above-asking sales. Savin Hill slowed down but is worth keeping an eye on heading into next month.

🏡 NH Lakes Region Real Estate Market Update | Moultonborough, Meredith & Wolfeboro

Happy Wednesday, everyone! This week's Lakes Region report covers three markets — and buyers and sellers are getting very different signals depending on which town you're watching. Here's what the data is telling us this week. 📊

🏠 Moultonborough — Shifting Toward Buyers
4 closings this month, same as last month, and homes are selling in just 1 day. But here's the shift buyers need to know about — only 25% sold above asking this month, down dramatically from 100% last month. Nothing sold under asking either month. The data is moving in buyers' favor here even as homes continue to move fast.

📝 Note: 4 closings — median price reflects property mix rather than a true market-wide shift.

🏠 Meredith — Clearest Buyer Opportunity This Week
4 closings, up from 3, with days on market ticking up to 9 from 3. But the number that stands out: 75% of homes sold under asking this month, up from just 33% last month. Only 25% sold above asking. Buyers, Meredith is giving you more negotiating room than either of the other two markets this week. If you've been watching this market and waiting for a window — this is it.

📝 Note: Small sample size — price shift reflects property mix not a market-wide trend.

⛵ Wolfeboro — Sellers Still in Control
2 closings this month, selling in zero days — instant sales. One home sold above asking and nothing sold under asking either month. Wolfeboro remains the most competitive of the three markets for sellers right now. Buyers, if you're targeting Wolfeboro, come in prepared and ready to move the moment a listing hits — hesitation will cost you.

📝 Note: 2 closings — median price reflects property mix not a market-wide price signal.

📊 This Week's Full Numbers:

Moultonborough
🔹 Closings: 4 → 4
🔹 Days on Market: 4 → 1 ⬇️ ⚡
🔹 Above Asking: 100% → 25% ⬇️
🔹 Under Asking: 0% → 0%
🔹 Median Price: $2,612,500 → $687,000*
*Reflects property mix on 4 closings

Meredith
🔹 Closings: 3 → 4 ⬆️
🔹 Days on Market: 3 → 9 ⬆️
🔹 Above Asking: 33% → 25% ⬇️
🔹 Under Asking: 33% → 75% ⬆️
🔹 Median Price: $725,000 → $1,271,000*
*Reflects property mix on 4 closings

Wolfeboro
🔹 Closings: 3 → 2
🔹 Days on Market: 4 → 0 ⬇️ ⚡
🔹 Above Asking: 2 → 1
🔹 Under Asking: 0 → 0
🔹 Median Price: $510,000 → $1,493,026*
*Reflects property mix on 2 closings

💡 Bottom Line This Week:
Moultonborough and Meredith are both showing signals that favor buyers — above asking activity is easing and under asking closings are climbing. Wolfeboro remains the strongest seller market of the three with instant sales and nothing closing below asking. All three markets are thin volume with 2 to 4 closings per town — treat these as directional signals and context for your buying or selling strategy rather than definitive market conclusions.

🏠 Boston Rental Market Update | Brighton, Brookline, Cambridge & Roxbury

Happy Tuesday, everyone! This week's rental market covers four neighborhoods — and whether you're renting or managing a property, there's something in this data worth knowing. 📊

🏠 Brighton — Mixed by Unit Size
78 rentals closed this month, renting faster at just 33 days, down from 40. Studios dropped to $1,725 and one-bedrooms dipped slightly — good news for renters targeting smaller units. Two-bedrooms and three-bedrooms both rose, with three-bedrooms climbing to $4,100. Landlords with larger units are in a stronger position this month.

🏠 Brookline — Landlords Holding Firm
150 closings, up from 117, and 149 of 150 units rented at asking price — one of the most extraordinary at-asking rates we have seen all year. Landlords are holding firm across every category. Studios are the one renter opportunity this month, dropping to $2,392 from $2,606. One and three-bedrooms both rose. Renters, expect to pay asking in virtually every category here.

🏠 Cambridge — Unit Size Tells the Story
182 closings, up from 168, renting faster at 35 days. Studios dipped to $2,471 and one-bedrooms dropped to $3,031 — renters, those are your best categories this month. Two-bedrooms rose to $4,017. Your outcome in Cambridge depends entirely on which unit size you are targeting.

🏠 Roxbury — Watch This Market
Just 13 closings this month but units are renting dramatically faster — 41 days on market, down from 72 last month. That 31-day improvement in leasing pace is the real story here. One-bedrooms dipped to $2,325 — a real opportunity for renters in that category. Two and three-bedrooms both climbed.

🔹 3BR: $4,050 → $4,267 ⬆️

💡 Bottom Line This Week:
Brighton depends on which unit size you're after — smaller units favor renters, larger units favor landlords. Brookline is the standout landlord market with that extraordinary at-asking rate. Cambridge is active with unit size driving every outcome. And Roxbury is moving dramatically faster — that 31-day pace improvement is the most encouraging signal this neighborhood has shown in recent reports.

Boston Real Estate Market Update | Brighton, Brookline, Cambridge & Roxbury

Happy Monday, everyone! This week's sales market covers four Boston neighborhoods — and buyers, there are real opportunities in this data worth paying attention to. Let's break it down. 📊

🏠 Brighton — Buyer Opportunity on Price
Brighton Condos saw 23 closings with median price dipping and fewer units selling under asking than last month — giving buyers more room to negotiate on price. Single-family homes are moving significantly faster this month at just 33 days, down from 63, but median price also pulled back. Buyers in Brighton, the data is working in your favor this month across both property types.

🏠 Brookline — Buyer Leverage Building
Brookline Condos had 53 closings, up from 50, selling faster at 35 days. But 28 of 53 sold under asking — up significantly from 18 of 50 last month. That's a meaningful shift toward buyers. Single-family homes are also moving faster at 31 days, down from 50, but 11 of 16 sold under asking and median price pulled back. Buyers in Brookline have more negotiating room this month than last across both property types.

🏠 Cambridge — Two Different Stories
Cambridge Condos had 84 closings, up from 71, selling faster at 35 days, with 36 selling above asking — up from 33 last month. But median price softened and 36 of 84 sold under asking. Competitive market but pricing is easing — worth watching closely for buyers.

Cambridge Single-Family is the seller story of the week. 17 closings, up from 11, with 9 selling above asking, up from 8, and median price climbing. Sellers in Cambridge single-family, this market is clearly working in your favor right now.

🏠 Roxbury — Watch This Market
Roxbury Condos had 5 closings, up from just 2 last month, with 2 selling above asking — the first above-asking activity we've seen in this market. Thin volume but the direction is positive. Single-family had no closings this month — last month's data is on screen for reference.

Next week I'll be covering Somerville — don't miss it!

This week's Boston rental market covers four neighborhoods — and whether you're renting, managing a property, or investing, this week's data has something important for you. 📊

🔥 South Boston — Landlord Standout of the Week
181 rentals closed this month, up from 126. 42 rented above asking, up from 30. Units moving in just 21 days. Median rent rose to $4,519, and studios jumped significantly month over month. South Boston is one of the strongest landlord markets in Boston right now — price with confidence.

🏠 South End — Mixed, Know Your Unit Size
89 closings, up from 69, with 25 renting above asking, up from 20. But median rent dipped to $4,106 from $4,312, and two and three-bedrooms both softened. Studios ticked up to $2,424. Renters targeting larger units in the South End have more negotiating room this month than those hunting studios.

💡 Fenway — Renter Opportunity of the Week
This is the standout renter story this week. 52 closings, up dramatically from 31, but median rent dropped sharply to $3,006 from $3,829. Pricing fell across every single unit size this month — studios, one-bedrooms, two-bedrooms, and three-bedrooms all down. Renters, Fenway is significantly more accessible right now than it was last month — but the volume jump tells you others are noticing too. Move quickly to take advantage.

🌊 Waterfront — Fast Moving Luxury Market
14 closings, up from 11, and units renting in just 13 days — down dramatically from 33. Above asking activity ticked up to 2 from 1 last month. Median rent rose to $6,182. But one and two-bedrooms both dropped, with the two-bedroom seeing a significant decline. Studio has held flat all year at $2,850. A fast-moving luxury market where unit type makes all the difference.

🔹 3BR: $14,000 → $14,000 ➡️

*Waterfront 2BR drop reflects unit mix on thin volume — not a market-wide price signal

💡 Bottom Line This Week:
South Boston is the clear landlord standout — rising volume, rising rents, and strong above-asking activity. Fenway is the clearest renter opportunity with pricing dropping across every unit size. The South End is a mixed story depending on which unit size you're targeting. And the Waterfront is a fast-moving luxury market where unit type tells the real story.
