Fed’s Beige Book: Boston Residential Real Estate

March 3, 2010 excerpts from Fed Beige Book:
Residential Real Estate
Home and condo sales continued to show significant year-over-year increases in December 2009, belying concerns that year-over-year declines would recur after the huge sales increases in November that were mainly attributed to the first-time homebuyer tax credit. Part of the continued strength may be due to [...]



Boston condo tax credit recipients can’t e-file

It’s not like I would ever say that free money isn’t worth it, especially when it’s a tax credit of up to $8,000. But I still doubt that first-time homebuyers who got their chunk of the housing kick-start are jumping for joy that they won’t be able to e-file come April.

A crackdown on Chapter 40B developers?

Attorney General Martha Coakley is going after Acton developers who were allegedly “padding their profits” on affordable housing projects.

(The current-day building was constructed in 1975; prior churches on the site were apparently more ornate. The building before the current one was [...]



Strada234 owners look for compensation over proposed building

Back in the day, the area around North Station was a vast wasteland of government offices and eight-lane highways (remember when you had to go to the Registry on Nashua Street?)
Fast forward, and today the area, re-christened as “the Bulfinch Triangle” is the site of condos, apartment buildings, and hotels … surrounded by a vast [...]



Developers cut residential housing from recent proposals

Those worried about a glut in the number of “luxury” condominiums going up around the city have a little less to worry about.
In recent days, developers of two high-profile projects have announced they are cutting residential units from their plans.
Boston Properties, developer of the under-construction Russia Wharf mixed-use project, told the Boston Business Journal they [...]
