What a year it was. From the life and lifestyle pivots caused by Covid-19 to the explosive real estate and vacation rental market on Martha’s Vineyard. Summing it up: Martha’s Vineyard Real Estate Sales Top $1 Billion And Point B Realty Gains Significant Market Share.
The Martha’s Vineyard housing market was reshaped in 2020, spurred by record-low mortgage rates and a sudden wave of market changes brought on by the pandemic.

Martha’s Vineyard Vacation Rentals – From Covid Cancellations To Covid Re-booking Rental Surge
Our vacation rental business was also heavily impacted by Covid-19 – with a huge wave of cancellations when the pandemic hit in early spring, followed by an even larger surge of re-bookings for summer 2020. Our Rental Team is incredibly busy with 2021 reservations, as high demand to travel locally and earlier booking cycles have created a significant shortage of vacation rental home inventory for the coming summer season on Martha’s Vineyard.
