Party like it’s 1773… …or should we say, like the real estate party’s over?

Bostonrealtyparty_70pctYankees vs. Red Sox rivalries aside, Inman New’s recent blog post about a
Great Gatsby-esque real estate party in the Big Apple, described as an "elbow-to-elbow soiree straight out of Hollywood… that attracted at least 1,000
of the city’s brokers and agents," had readers in Boston gagging and
giggling.   

Anyone who thinks the good times will continue to roll in real estate is in for a Big Surprise, which is why bloggers in Boston
secretly used the 232nd anniversary of the Boston Tea Party to plan
a series of "Boston Realty Parties" celebrating the end of the housing bubble
here and beginning of the first buyers’ market in more than a decade.

The upcoming series of events will inform and
protect real estate consumers, and aspires to bring about long overdue industry
reforms (like rebelling against obsolete real estate commissions that are akin to excessive taxes on tea two hundred years ago.)  Don’t believe the party’s over in Boston?  Check out the (1) housing price index graphs by one of The Real Estate Cafe’s buyer agents / real
estate consultants, (2) view our recent series of bar charts analyzing market statistics behind
the  "hard landing" for the Boston housing
market
, or (3) scan the Boston Globe stories and video clip on Boston.com.

While the photo above was taken at the historic
tea party site in Boston Harbor, the "Coming soon" sign points to the "coming slowdown," as Business Week called it, in other housing markets, while documenting the importance of December
16, 1773 in American history (click on photo to enlarge).  Why was the photo taken at night?  Check your
high school history books or visit the Boston Tea Party’s web site to find
out.
