The full South Shore real estate transactions are a regular weekly feature for Patriot Ledger subscribers. Here, nonsubscribers can get a taste.

In the the full weekly list, there are hundreds and hundreds of listings, residential and commercial. From the Top 5 sales to all the South Shore property sold, we've got it. We give you links to see more of the properties inside and out. Some even call it the nosy neighbor section. And that is certainly part of the fun. Who doesn't like to know what their neighbors sold that house for? And who doesn't like to peruse photos of big, beautiful houses? But our listings can also help you keep an eye on your investment and plan your next one. And these are certainly interesting times in the real estate world around here. Prices are still high and inventory is still low. New restaurants are popping up on the South Shore. One word for real estate right now: hot.

This roundup of the 20 most expensive recent South Shore, Massachusetts, home sales isn't just for subscribers this month. But to get the full list with all the transactions from your town - or another South Shore town you're interested in - you need to be a subscriber. If you’re not a digital subscriber, please consider signing up today.

Only for subscribers: These 5 home sales show what you get for about $1M - you may be surprised

If you're already a digital subscriber, make sure you didn't miss the most recent list - with a top 5 and every South Shore real estate sale - commercial and residential - listed town by town for easy perusing.  You'll find it here, along with all your other subscriber only premium content.
