And, now, the answer to this week's asking-rent guessing game.
Address: 207 Hillside Street, #3
Rent: $3,500
The Skinny: Barely 36 percent of you got this one right. More than 31 percent, in fact, said this 3-BR, 2-BA Mission Hill apartment in a newly construction building was asking a full $300 a month less than what's advertised. What was it about the 1,200-square-foot spread that threw you? Its central air? Its deck off the master bedroom? The owner living downstairs? The pet-friendliness? All would point to higher rents, no? For some, yes. About one-third of you voted for rents much higher than the asking, including for $4,000 even.
