The curious case of disappearing Boston condos has been on the minds of many this year, especially for buyers who are recognizing the lowest inventory?Boston has witnessed since 2004. Even with an ?8.8% tax increase in 2013?that will affect some ?potential sellers, property owners are choosing to keep their homes to themselves. We can?t blame them considering property values are rising again. Even Boston real estate luxury market sales (sales above $1 million) have increased 25% over last year.
With that being said, it?s clearly a seller?s market in Boston right now. Buyers are having to act fast when finding their dream home or investment. With educated buyers and low inventory, the average days on market as of August was 76 days (compared to 71 days in July which was the lowest in 6 1/2 years). Just when you thought you were playing tug-a-war in today?s real estate market, these popular homes only got one day to play. What a tough life!
