New Real Estate Listings � Updated February 07, 2012

Boston condos and townhouses will see a property tax increase for fiscal 2012.

Boston residential properties tax rate will increase 25 cents or nearly 2% to $13.04 per thousand of the property valuation. This increase will add approximately $150.00 to the average single- family home tax bill.

Six long years after putting his Ritz condo on the market, Manny has finally sold the Boston abode for $5.5 million.

He’s lucky. He lost “only” about $300,000 compared to what he paid for it in 2001, though it’s $3 million short of what he once was asking for it.

It was the most ridiculously long sale process. It was classic Manny being Manning. But it’s over.
