Welcome!

My name is John A Keith. I am a real estate broker in Boston. Along with my team of agents, I help buyers and sellers of homes throughout Boston, including the South End, Back Bay, and Beacon Hill neighborhoods.

There is a lot of useful information on my site, starting with the blog entries in the middle column. I update my site three or four times a day, so check back often.

On my site, you can search through all of the listings in the local Multiple Listing Service (MLSPIN) . If you wish to receive daily emails of new listings as they come on the market, sign-up today.

You can review news by topic, by clicking on any one of the "tags" or "categories". You can also review news in the archive, sorted by month. See details in the right-hand column.

If you are thinking of moving to Boston and want to learn more about each neighborhood and search through listings by neighborhood, choose a neighborhood from the table of contents, in the right-hand column.

Also, you can click through on links for more information of value to buyers and sellers.

If you click on the "new projects" link you can learn about all the new developments under construction and recently completed, throughout the city of Boston.

Please contact me for more information or to learn about how I can assist you as a buyer's agent or with selling your home.

If you would like to learn more about me, please read these articles and columns. (Sometimes, I even smile.)

Boston’s commercial market bucks national trend

From Jones Lang LaSalle’s quarterly market report:
Overview – While the U.S. economy may have already entered into recession, the same cannot be said for Boston. The city is fairing far better than other metro areas and thus far in 2008 remains active. The healthy market fundamentals established in 2007 are mostly unchanged, as positive absorption […]

It comes after a “lost summer”

It’s summer intern time at all the Boston papers, I guess.
From the BBJ:
“We’re not seeing those dips (in Boston),” said Paul Sacco, president and CEO of the Massachusetts Lodging Association. “I think Boston is resilient.”
Sacco said some hoteliers are seeing slight increases in occupancy. “It’s not a win fall of any sort,” he said, “But […]

Well that sure brightens up the block

Next to the Apple store on Boylston Street, in Boston’s Back Bay.

I need a good night’s sleep as much as the next guy (more, even), but I was kind of hoping for something a little more exciting and I don’t know … upscale? to go into this spot.
(Anyone remember when there was a mattress store […]
