""The last quarter did better than the rest of the year," said Beth Dickerson of Gibson Sotheby's International Realty in Boston. "For all these properties to go under contract just before and during Christmas tells me that people were on the sidelines and got tired of waiting; they want to get on with their lives.""
""In the $10-15 million range, you're not compromising - you're choosing your preferred lifestyle, whether that's full-service building amenities, a private garden in a historic neighborhood, or turnkey modern luxury in a classic setting," said Maggie Gold Seelig of MGS Group Real Estate."
""Units in One Dalton, Raffles Boston, and Mandarin Oriental are maintaining their prices and doing well," Tracy Campion of Campion and Company in Boston added."
""People are living longer, hanging out, taking the grandkids to sports games," she said."
Luxury single-family homes and high-end condos in Boston experienced strong activity during the holiday quarter, with multiple seven-figure deals and fast-moving contracts. Notable transactions included a Back Bay townhouse sold for $21 million, an $18.5 million Beacon Street penthouse that went under contract before listing, and a Marlborough Street brownstone that sold for $11.5 million, above asking. Back Bay, Beacon Hill, and Brattle Street in Cambridge lead the $10 million-plus segment. Buyers in the $10–15 million range prioritize lifestyle choices rather than compromise. Prestigious buildings such as One Dalton, Raffles Boston, and Mandarin Oriental are holding value. Older couples buying to be near grandchildren are increasingly active buyers.
