Highlights from the Middlesex County Market Report, October 2023
The median Sold price has increased 11% compared to this time last year, up from $675K last year to $750K this year.
The number of new listings on the market has been nearly slashed in half over the past five years. This is a major factor contributing to why we're still in a Seller's market, despite the current rising interest rates and economic uncertainty.
Homes are still selling over list price at an average of nearly 103%; in fact, there has been a slight (1%) uptick in List-to-Sale Price Ratio since this time last year.
Inventory is still remarkably low. The Absorption Rate (number of homes sold divided by number of homes on the market) is at its' lowest point in the past year. In a normal market, there should be 6 months of inventory on the market, but the current Absorption Rate is indicating there is less than 2 months, pointing to a strong Seller's market.
Sold Prices are up, inventory is low, competition is high - if you're thinking of selling, don't miss this opportunity! Reach out to us today to find out what your home is worth!
