Medford MA Real Estate Market Update Jan – Sept 2012

Medford MA Real Estate Review

Medford MA Real Estate Review

Here’s the Medford MA real estate market update for the period January to September 2012.

Last year’s numbers for the same period are in parentheses.

By every measure 2012 has been a better year than 2011 for Medford real estate.  Median prices were up, average days on market were down.  Properties sold more quickly and for closer to their asking prices.

On September 30, 2012 115 properties were listed for sale in Medford.  That’s a huge drop from a year before when 204 properties were on the market.

If you’re considering selling it’s a superb time to be on the market – buyer demand is up and supply is way down.  That’s great for sellers – and challenging for buyers.
