Meet Peter

Peter McGovern is a founding member of Corcoran Property Advisors and a licensed real estate broker specializing in luxury homes, condos, and investment properties across Greater Boston, the South Shore, and the Cape & Islands. Known for his strategic mindset, elevated aesthetic, and client-first approach, Peter combines sharp market insight with thoughtful, design-driven marketing to help clients buy, sell, invest—or relocate—with confidence. Peter’s career in real estate began as an investor. Over the years, he and his husband, Eric, have built and co-managed a portfolio of top-performing vacation rentals and luxury renovations—earning a reputation for transforming properties with style and precision. Every home they’ve renovated and sold has set price records in its zip code. Clients benefit from Peter’s own experience, eye for value, hands-on approach, and extensive network of trusted contractors, attorneys, lenders, designers, and real estate professionals. A three-time founder and seasoned entrepreneur, Peter has launched and scaled domestic and international companies across multiple sectors prior to obtaining his real estate license. His ventures have been recognized by publications including the Boston Business Journal and Inc. 5000. This entrepreneurial edge translates into strategic, results-oriented service for every client. Peter leads his own real estate team at Corcoran Property Advisors alongside his husband and business partner, Eric Chapman—offering a rare blend of market savvy, visual strategy, and personalized guidance from start to finish. Whether helping clients purchase a modest starter home, relocate from abroad, or prepare a luxury waterfront estate for market, Peter brings a global perspective (he speaks English, Spanish, and Mandarin) and genuine joy to every transaction. Born and raised in Massachusetts, he now splits his time between downtown Boston and Cape Cod with his husband and their two dogs and has quickly become one of Massachusetts’ top-producing brokers.
