Holliston MA Market Review Jan 2010
January 13th, 2010
Would I be surprising you if I made the statement that it is a Seller’s Market in Holliston MA right now? The Median Sales Prices have remained steady compared to the year earlier, which should be considered a WIN for homeowners in this economy.
Here is a quick bullet of Holliston’s Marketplace:
- Average selling time over the past year has been 122 days on market.
- Median price is $350,000 over the past 12 months. Same as previous year.
- There are currently 36 Active single family homes on market.
- Holliston has 3.2 months of inventory currently – Under 4 months is considered a Seller’s Market
- Sellers are getting 95% of Listing Price over the past year. 91% of Original Asking Price.
Just so that I am not coming across those readers that think I am a typical Realtor reporting only the “positive” stats, I have reported Median prices as opposed to Average prices. This is because Average prices create a higher weight to the higher end priced homes and Median prices do not.
That being said, the average prices for the past 12 months were $388882, down from the 12 months previous of $396328. This results in a 2% decline in average prices in Holliston.
I have a buyer currently looking to spend up to mid $500K in Holliston, Medway or Hopkinton. I just mailed a postcard to 400 Holliston households asking them if they were considering a move. In 12 years as a Realtor, I can say I have never done this before.
I believe this type of low inventory will result in upward price pressure for Holliston housing stock in 2010.
