The buliding is over 3,000 square feet and offers two bedrooms on the first floor and three bedroom units on the second and third floor. Currently, this house generates $9,200 per month in rent.
So why is this such a hot commodity? Well, rents are skyrocketing and Southie is the city’s most sought after neighborhood for young professionals. According to the BBJ article, the average cost of an apartment in South Boston in the first quarter was $3,064 – compared to $2,841 for the same time period in 2012.
