DNC Affects Boston Real Estate Market

Boston, MA (PRWEB) July 29, 2004

Local real estate firm, Brick House Realty, experienced an 88% decline in people who want to see properties in Boston this week. Potential buyers are staying away in droves because they fear the effects the Democratic National Convention will have on their ability to move freely around town.

“I’ve never seen anything like this! Clients who are looking to buy in Boston are avoiding the entire area, even Cambridge, says BHR Broker Maria LC Salomão. “Forget about interests rates, the determining factor this week is simply ACCESS to the properties.“ The local real estate economy has been growing at a slower pace in the last year. Agents are worried that any event of this magnitude will directly affect the industry’s inertia.

Diane Heliotis is one of Brick House Realty’s clients who has canceled her appointments to see properties. “I am taking no chances with getting stuck in Boston or with terrorist attacks. Buying real estate is not as important as keeping my family safe!”

Brick House Realty is a real estate firm that specifically caters to professional women…and their families. Even though women make 85% of the home buying decision, they are often neglected in the home buying and selling process. Brick House Realty is a socially responsible real estate firm that also offers free interactive workshops and individual coaching to our clients. Five percent of profits go to a number of phenomenal local charities.
