As a longtime resident with great insight to the history and culture of South Boston and its surrounding neighborhoods I offer knowledge of transportation information, attractions and amenities within the community. I understand that each individual must work within the confines of price, location, amenities and other liming factors and the importance of helping to create the ideal match of home and homeowner. Whether you are looking to buy, sell, lease or looking for a professional agent to show your property and run a background check (credit, employment and letters of recommendations from previous landlords).

I also offer a unique insight into the investment property niche with an educational background in marketing and finance having worked side by side with some of the most accomplished investors in this market.

While being associated with a firm, Capital Residential, that is constantly establishing ourselves as leaders in our market that pride ourselves in the use of technology cutting edge industry standards we work to give clients the latest and most recent market conditions.

It’s that time of year again; the rental market in South Boston is back with a vengeance!! I myself do not see prices dropping anytime soon.  Times have certainly changed in Southie as far as rent prices. Right now a 3 bedroom can rent anywhere from $1000 up to $1500 per bedroom! After you add in all of the fees, you might as well put a down payment on a condo!

 Buying can be scary for some, but that’s what we are here for.  Consider paying your own mortgage versus your landlords!! Please feel free to contact me to discuss buying your very first home in South Boston. It’s not as daunting as you’d think it up to be!!

The revitalization of the Seaport District moves on. The area referred to as Seaport Square encompasses 20+ acres from the convention center down D St and up to Fort Point. With hotels, shopping, offices and residences all under construction with an expected completion date of 2015-2016 this helps to explain the influx to South Boston and the Fort Point neighborhood over the past few years.

Boston is always looking to lead the way in technology and green building this project is no different looking to gain a Silver LEED certification. Leaving a good portion as open space and parklands and adding a generous amount of the much needed shopping it seems as though there is going to be something for everyone.

From fashion to home decor, I haven’t totally been a fan of the ombre look.I do love it in hair though – have you seen that look? If not – google it. It really looks great on some people!

But anyway, we’re not talking hair today. We’re talking ombre walls. From P.S. I made this… comes this vibrant turquoise ombre wall. As I was saying, I haven’t really loved the look in accessories or outfits, but I’m really loving the look of this wall. It adds such a whimsical dynamic while still keeping it classy. Plus, the pop of turquoise isn’t overwhelming as it fades.

What do you think of this Ombre wall? Are you loving the look as I am or not feeling it?

South Boston is forever changing and a lot of that change has come along D Street.  There's the West Square, which promises 225 units with 255 parking spaces, which takes the entire block between C and D streets, from West 1^st to West 2^nd, 411 D Street, which will add an additional 197 apartments. There is even talk of a couple of hotels going in near the convention center!! Where there is land there is Construction!!   Having lived in South Boston my entire life, seeing the changes first hand is incredible. What was once referred to as the West Side or Lower End, is now more expensive than living on Farragut Road! South Boston is the place to be, hence why I’ve never left!!

Foodie's Market on West Broadway in South Boston is now open.  They will also be open on New Year’s Eve until 8PM, please stop by and check out their exotic and hard-to-find specialty products along with the basic family favorites. Their produce is superior in quality, the meats are fresher because most are cut and processed daily in-house, as well as their prepared foods which are made right in their own kitchens, the cheese department will make even the connoisseur happy as well as the wine and beer department, that has a far better selection than what is usually found in a supermarket.  Foodie's Market supports local produce, small regional vendors and feature locally made products.  Foodie's Market provides a selection unsurpassed by even the biggest supermarkets.
