June and July Sale-to-List Prices for Boston Real Estate
Last night about 25 people battled the elements to take a home-buying class covering the latest on prices and foreclosures in the Boston area, tips for negotiating, and other precious nuggets of information. The slides are here (big file) and sale-to-list data is below.
The class is part of our regular Red Carpet Event. Next one’s in the dog days, on August 20th. We’ll have pizza and beer, like always, so come on out!
