Recent News & Updates
Boston Properties Is A World-Class REIT But Currently Overvalued
Boston Properties is the largest office REIT in the US and one of the best managed in our opinion. Its high-quality class A offices have been performing relatively well despite the pandemic, and they have long leases that give the company time to work out the potential impact of work-from-home. The company is generating significant value with its development pipeline, as well as its life sciences buildings platform. Unfortunately, shares are no longer cheap, and we currently rate them a Sell based mostly on valuation, but also uncertainty around the impact of work-from-home.
