Multiple Bids for Arlington MA Homes
It often takes buyers by surprise, particularly if they’re new to the Arlington real estate market, to find out that it’s not uncommon for Arlington MA single family homes to sell for over the asking price.

Arlington Single Family Homes
Since we’ve reached the half-way mark in the year and come through the busy spring real estate market I thought it would be interesting to take a look at Arlington single family sales through June 30, 2009.
Between January 1, 2009 and June 30, 2009 in Arlington:
- 85 single family homes sold
- Average asking price was $538,667
- Average sales price was $525,626

Arlington Single Family Sales For Over Asking Price
Wondering how often Arlington single family homes get multiple offers or sell for more than the asking price? Here are the numbers for the first half of 2009:
21 of the 85 single families sold through June sold for more than list price or almost 1 in 4 houses.
The average asking price for these homes was $510,910. The average sales price was $525,347.
I was curious to see how these sales tracked by school district:
- Brackett – 7 of 21 over asking sales
- Dallin - 5
- Hardy – 2
- Peirce – 2
- Stratton – 2
- Thompson – 2
- Bishop – 1
But how much are Arlington real estate buyers paying over asking price?
