Benjamin Realty is a family-run real estate brokerage based in Brookline, founded in 1998 by broker Ben Spunt (Massachusetts broker license 9025222-RE-B). We represent people selling and buying homes in Boston and across Greater Boston and MetroWest.
2,165 homes are for sale in Boston today: 252 single-family houses, 1,590 condos and 323 multi-family buildings. The median asking price is $900,000, and prices run from $1,450 to $44,500,000. Single-family homes are asking a median $539 per square foot of living area.
Half of them have been on the market 31 days or less, counted from when our MLS feed first listed them, and 1,085 came on in the last 30 days. 81 already have an accepted offer with contingencies still open, and 51 have had a price change.
In the last 90 days, 2,033 Boston homes left the market (sold, went under agreement or were withdrawn) after a median 49 days listed.
As your listing agent: pricing, marketing and negotiating the sale of your home or condo. We price from the same public record shown on our Boston seller page: recent sales, assessed values and the homes yours would compete with.
If you’ve had a cash offer, we’ll tell you what the home would likely bring on the market so you can compare.
As your buyer’s agent: buyer representation from the first showing to the closing. 2,165 homes are for sale in Boston now, from $1,450 to $44,500,000.
Before we tour homes together, we’ll agree in writing what you’ll pay us and what we’ll do for you. (NAR, written buyer agreements)
Tell us whether you’re buying, selling or both, and we’ll set up a time to talk. Meetings are by appointment, at the property or wherever suits you. Call (617) 734-5050 or email [email protected].
Commissions are “not set by law and are fully negotiable”: that’s the wording the National Association of Realtors now requires in every written buyer agreement. The fee goes into your listing agreement (selling) or buyer agreement (buying), so ask for it in writing before you sign either. (NAR, written buyer agreements)
Since August 17, 2024, agents who are Realtors need a written agreement with a buyer before touring a home with them. It must say what the buyer’s agent will be paid, and the agent can’t be paid more than that. A seller may still offer to pay the buyer’s agent, with the seller’s written approval, but the offer can’t be posted on the MLS. (NAR, written buyer agreements; NAR, what the settlement means for sellers)
At your first personal meeting about a specific home, a Massachusetts agent must give you the state’s Mandatory Licensee-Consumer Relationship Disclosure. It says whether they’ll act as the seller’s agent, the buyer’s agent or a facilitator, and explains designated and dual agency; dual agency needs your written consent. (254 CMR 3.00(13); Mass. agency disclosure form)
Boston is one of the towns we work in most. We work across Greater Boston and MetroWest. If you’re looking somewhere else in Massachusetts, ask, and we’ll tell you plainly whether we can help.

Days listed count from when our MLS feed first listed each home; homes already on the market when the feed began (July 2026) count from then. Listing information from MLS Property Information Network (MLS PIN), deemed reliable but not guaranteed.
Assessed values are the City of Boston’s own fiscal 2026 assessments, from its Property Assessment data on Analyze Boston. An assessed value is set for taxation and may differ from market value. The city doesn’t publish sale prices with its assessments, so this page shows no recorded sales for Boston.
