I recently started a new group on LinkedIn called “Boston Apartments“, I found that most groups relating to the apartment rental industry had too much irrelevant information.
Given the unique characteristics that the Boston apartment market has I hope this group becomes a good information resource for Landlords, individual property owners, property managers and off course apartment renters.
The group is open to anyone and I would encourage you to participate, share ideas, ask questions and make suggestion that you think would improve the overall experience of having to find an apartment for rent in greater Boston area and also owning or managing a property in MA.

Below is a link to to our new group:

Rental Beast has two affordable luxury apartments for rent in the Nouvelle at Natick.

One bedroom apartment for rent at the Natick Nouvelle

One bedroom apartment for rent in the Nouvelle at Natick

If you live in Metro West Boston, you have probably heard about the “Natick Collection,” the upscale renovation to the Natick Mall. If you have been there, you know that the North Wing is truly upscale. Boutique after boutique after Nordstrom after Neiman Marcus. It’s an indoor Newbury Street.

The downturn in the economy has created an advantage for renter’s, though. Recently, condos at the Nouvelle were sold at fire-sale prices (read: reasonable). There are several advantages to living in the Nouvelle. One, it is gorgeous, luxurious and upstairs from Neiman Marcus. Two, it is about a mile from the Mass Pike and on top of Route 9. Your Metro West commute just got 30+ minutes faster. Three, did I mention gorgeous.

Rental Beast has just gotten our hands on two very affordable, luxury condos for rent in the Nouvelle at Natick; a one bedroom condo and a two bedroom condo. The apartments are pristine, never been lived in. Have a look at the pictures. Read the description, then visit us at Rental Beast to find out how you could live in the Nouvelle at Natick without paying a $2000+ broker fee.
