Main Line Real Estate | Narberth Homes Sales Statistics - Q1 and Q2 Market Report

By
Real Estate Broker/Owner with BIG Realty

Growing up on the Main Line, and attending Lower Merion, Narberth was always known as a quaint borough, not off the Main Line, but not quite in the Main Line either.  Classmates were referred to as "Narbs," and the general consensus was that it was not the best place to live.  Fast forward 25 years, and a lot has changed.  Narberth is the new Manayunk of the Main Line, a "walking town" so to speak, which I wish there were more of!

Compared to Lower Merion, Narberth is a steal, but if you want to buy, keep a sharp eyeout.  There aren't as many homes for sale as in the LM Township area.  A total of only 24 homes sold in the first half of 2007, with the average days on market (DOM) just 26 days, nearly half that of Lower Merion and Radnor.

The lowest sales price was $212,000 with the highest at $600,000, and an average sales price of $369,000, which is nearly 1/3 the average sales price on the Main Line in Lower Merion.

I am writing this September of 2007. My husband's family is from Narberth and it is a cute little town. He always wanted to move back there. But it's ridiculousy overpriced.  It used to be bad, but it incredibly seems to have gotten worse, which I don't understand in this awful market. I'd like to know if some of these sellers/agents have lost their minds. We've got one crappy looking twin on the market for 329,000 which is in the not so nice "rowhouse" section, and one single family for 335,00 that is only 1,056 square feet. Both three bedrooms one bath. Hell no! Something much nicer for less money can be found somewhere else. These people need to come back to reality with these prices. No one's going to pay that!
