Metro Boston ran a short article about the Massachusetts real estate market, focusing on a buyer and seller in the Dorchester neighborhood of Boston.

“I read all the reports and listen to the news, but it doesn’t necessarily affect my decision to buy,” said Nancy Williams, a 37-year-old homeowner in Boston interested in buying. “Most of the reports are speaking on a national or state level and don’t apply to specific neighborhoods.”

“I pay attention to the numbers, but I also pay attention to what has sold in our neighborhood,” said Donald Petry, a Dorchester resident who put a house on the market two weeks ago.
