61 Putnam #1 and #3 East Boston. Eastie!

61 Putnam Street, Units 1 and 3 — 2018 East Boston transaction archive. This historical post carries two 2018 listings for two units of the same building, preserved together as they were published in Jeffrey Bowen’s record. The original MLSPIN page pastes have been replaced with this native version; the listing data below is the 2018 record for each unit, retained as transaction provenance.

Eastie! 61 Putnam #1 and #3 East Boston.

Unit #3 has been reduced to $325,000 for a fast sale. Unit #1 is larger with a cozy outdoor space and also is a very good value for East Boston. I expect these to be sold this weekend.

2018 listing notes, preserved for the record: this post carried two complete MLSPIN listing reports — Unit 1 (MLS #72389820) and Unit 3 (MLS #72340268) — and both are preserved here at the combined-property level, as published. Recorded, not harmonized: the post’s own head text (carried verbatim above) says Unit #3 “has been reduced to $325,000,” while Unit 3’s record shows $325,000 as its original June 6, 2018 price, changed the same day UP to $350,000. Unit 1’s structured unit level reads 2 while its room table places every room on level 1 and its remarks call it a “1st floor” condo. Unit 3’s structured bedroom count reads 1 while its remarks and room table describe two bedrooms (the second “very small,” usable as a den). Unit 3’s $639.20/sq. ft. figure reconciles at neither its $325,000 nor its $350,000 price. Unit 1’s disclosures: the refrigerator, stove, dishwasher and microwave are included in the sale; the washer and dryer are not included but negotiable at this price level; the condo was being sold “as is” at this price level; and the sellers had blown in insulation for $5,000. Unit 3’s record states no disclosures. The head’s email, text, open-house and sign-off lines are dropped as contact chrome, superseded by the standard contact block below. The gallery above carries the union of both records’ photographs in record order — Unit 1’s slideshow counter read “1 of 27” and Unit 3’s “1 of 21”; the 48 keys resolve to the 40 unique photographs placed here, byte-identical duplicates placed once — imported from the preserved MLSPIN archive into this site’s own library, and the post no longer depends on MLSPIN for any content.
