Bill - looks like the number of transactions are moving steadily upward for Northbridge.  Good - usually the sales prices will follow.

Bill...the numbers say it all, when asking prices retract (and tax credits are available) the days on market become less. Although many may see this as further erosion of value, I see this as old inventory going away to make room for future price recovery.

Bill, You have some very reasonably priced homes in this area.  And I do agree with you on Internet Presence, something I'm afraid too few homeowners are really aware of.  I believe it's the first thing I would check in hiring a Realtor.

Hi Bill I like the way you show the market trend by doing a comparison with same time last year.  What I see right away is how the list and sale prices have come down, same trend in most markets.

Hey Bill, 

 

how is the market in your area? how would you rate the towns for best price for the area, schools, etc.

Wondering about comparison of Westboro, Northboro, Southboro, Hopkinton, Ashland, Holliston,

Dave the market has been better this year than last in terms of sales volume and also prices showing more signs of stability. Hopkinton, Holliston, Southboro, Northboro, and Westboro are very similar in terms of school ratings. Ashland would be rated slightly below them but they still have excellent schools as well.

Homes certainly are becoming more affordable... I hope this all means a more stable market.. With the step increase in prices in MA, this is most likely a healthy adjustment...
