April 2016 Greater Boston Real Estate Market Trends

 

The housing market is being predictable, and that's a good thing. At the beginning of the year, it was anticipated that the prevailing trends of the past year would continue into and through 2016, and that has largely been the case. The number of homes for sale has generally remained lower compared to a year ago, and prices have been steadily rising in desirable neighborhoods where homes show well.

  • April single-family home sales Up 21.0% over last year
  • April Single-family median prices were up 3.5% to $530,000
  • April condo sales - Up 18.0% and median prices up 10.1% ($480,000)
