Hopkinton Mid-Month Real Estate Market Report -- March 2009

By
Real Estate Broker/Owner with STAR REALTY Hopkinton

Click below to view the video (about 7 minutes) discussing inventory trends in this early spring market for Hopkinton, MA.  Charts in the video are also included below for your reference.

 

Some of the raw data: 

  • just 59 single-family homes on the market currently and of those 7 have accepted offers and remain as "active" only to seek back-up offers. 
  • Average DOM (days on market) is down this month to 135 from 149 in mid-February. 
  • Ten homes have gone under agreement in the past month which is quite a nice activity level.

 

Below is the inventory trend chart shown in the video.  Since my legend does not appear (ahem) the dark blue line on top is the number of homes in each price range this month, the lighter blue line is the same number from one month ago, and the red line on the bottom is the number which have gone under agreement since 2-14-09.

Hopkinton Inventory Trends as of 3-15-09

Below is the chart showing inventory trends since January 2005.  The "J  A  J  O" along the bottom stand for "January, April, July, & October" of each year.  You can see that our inventory levels are low.

I liked watching your video. Did you use a Mac to produce it? The graphics look good and it's informative.  I've done a market update like that on my blog but never considered a video. Good marketing.

Kim-  I'm just *now* seeing your comment.  I apologize for being so tardy.  I did use my Mac.  I hate to say this but it was so much easier than trying to use Windows Movie Maker.  I got some tips from folks and next time I'll prop up my laptop so the camera is higher and I'll put a lot more lights on.  I only do video because it's easier (more motivating) for me than writing.
