Meet Patrick
In Boston's luxury market, the difference between a good outcome and the right outcome is almost always information. I’m Patrick Barosy, a Luxury Real Estate Advisor with Engel & Völkers Boston, and that belief is the foundation of everything I do.
I specialize in properties priced at $2M and above across Back Bay, West Cambridge, Cambridge, Somerville, Belmont, and Arlington. My clients are executives, institutional leaders, and family offices navigating decisions that are as financially significant as they are personal. They don't need a salesperson. They need an advisor who brings the same analytical rigor to real estate that they bring to every other high-stakes decision in their lives. That's exactly what I deliver.
My edge is perspective that runs in both directions. Having spent years representing sophisticated buyers across Boston's most competitive neighborhoods, I understand precisely what drives conviction and what kills it. I know what discerning buyers scrutinize, what they walk away from, and what moves them to act without hesitation. That intelligence shapes how I price, position, and present every listing I bring to market. Sellers working with me aren't just getting an agent. They're getting four years of buyer-side intelligence deployed entirely in their favor.
I believe that data without context is just noise. Every client I work with receives institutional-grade market analysis, not a printout of comps but a genuine read on where the market is, where it's heading, and what that means for their specific position. I publish Above Asking, a monthly luxury market intelligence newsletter covering Back Bay, and Cambridge, because my current clients, and the clients I haven't met yet, deserve better than the surface-level commentary that passes for market insight in most of this industry.
Discretion, precision, and a relationship built on candor, not comfort are the standards I hold myself to. If you're considering a move, evaluating a property, or simply trying to understand what your real estate position looks like in today's market, I welcome that conversation.

What Sets Patrick Apart
Strategic, Data-Driven Advisory
Every recommendation is grounded in real market intelligence, not surface-level comps. I deliver a clear, informed perspective on where the market is and where it’s heading—so you can make confident, high-stakes decisions with precision.
Buyer-Level Insight, Seller Advantage
Years of representing sophisticated buyers means understanding exactly what drives action—and what stops it. That perspective is applied to every listing, shaping pricing, positioning, and negotiation entirely in your favor.
Discreet, Long-Term Partnership
This is not transactional. I work with a select group of clients, building relationships rooted in trust, candor, and discretion—delivering thoughtful guidance that extends far beyond a single deal.
We can't thank Patrick enough for his incredible help purchasing our first home. As first-time buyers, we were pretty naive about the process, but Patrick made it easy.
He was incredibly patient with us, not pressuring us to purchase a place we weren't sure about.
In the end, we found our perfect place, all thanks to Patrick. His blend of professionalism, knowledge, and genuine care for our needs was amazing. We're so grateful for everything he did for us and would recommend him to anyone.
— Jake & Julia
Pat did a great job of listening to our needs to help us find the perfect home. He was patient and honest throughout the process.
Our experience with Pat was great. I can't think of anything that didn't go well.
When we sold our home Pat worked with another agent at the same company. I would have preferred to only work with Pat. Two agents didn't work well for me.
— Lesley B.
My experience with Pat was completely positive. I felt protected but with the freedom to take chances I felt were worth it for my family and me. I always felt Pat advocated for us as if he was going to live in our new home himself. Pat, you were all the way in. Totally invested in us having the best possible long-term outcome.

As a first-time homebuyer, I couldn’t have asked for a better realtor than Patrick. He made the entire process so smooth and stress-free, walking me through every step and making sure I fully understood what to look for and what questions to ask. His instincts on pricing and negotiation were spot-on, and his consistency, reliability, and professionalism truly set him apart. Patrick was also incredibly respectful of my perspective — always keeping me, his client, at the center of every decision, even when my parents joined showings and had their own opinions. Thanks to his guidance and support, I not only found the perfect place but also gained confidence and knowledge throughout the process. I’m so grateful for his expertise and would recommend him to anyone, especially first-time buyers!

Patrick did an outstanding job assisting me with the purchase of my condo! This was my first real estate purchase and it could not have gone any smoother. He walked me through the entire process step by step and was always extremely clear in what the next phase of the process would look like. As a first-time home buyer, I was not sure exactly what I wanted and Patrick was so patient and took the necessary time I needed to find exactly what I wanted. Patrick was an excellent communicator and he was extremely knowledgeable about every location and neighborhood we looked at. There is no doubt that I will use Patrick for all my future real estate transactions and I am so thankful to have him as a real estate agent. I love my new home and I am so thankful I found it with Patrick!

Pat was all the way in. Totally invested in us having the best possible long-term outcome. He helped us sell our old house and move into our forever home. I can't really say a bad thing about Pat's role in our experience. Any negatives in the whole experience were due to the current market or challenges that came up with the sellers of houses we were interested in. I always felt Pat advocated for us as if he was going to live in our new home himself. My experience with Pat was completely positive. I felt protected but with the freedom to take chances I felt were worth it for my family and me. Everything was so great, in fact, that I recommended Pat to my sister and he got her in to her first house!
