Very slow rental market in Boston area, anyone?
I am a landlord and a broker in Boston. I think Boston market is probably one of the worst performing rental market due to Covid-19's impact on schools and international students. For example Regatta building in Cambridge now has 30 units for rent, and the asking price is at least 25% less than usual. I have a newly renovated 3 B 2 BA in Newton, and normally it should be rented within 2 weeks and now has been sitting on the market for 4 weeks with almost no inquiries. Do landlords on BP in Boston or other "hot" areas have similar experience?
