Salem 2016 Housing Market: record prices and sales
In 2016 the median price of a Single Family Home (SFH) in Salem increased by $21,000, or 6%, to $370,000, a new record high. Sales jumped 16% to a new high while the average number of houses for sale dropped slightly, indicating that houses sold very quickly. I shall publish a separate report on the equally buoyant condo market.

The first chart, with the numbers below, shows the median price for the two halves of the year and for the full year.
Swampscott 2016 housing market: prices up, supply really low
In 2016 the median price of a Single Family Home (SFH) in Swampscott increased by $28,000, or 6%, to $488,000, a sharp recovery from the Great Recession lows but still 6% below the exceptional peak of $517,300 in 2005 (read What happened in Swampscott in 2005?). Sales dropped back, largely in the second half of the year, but the big story was the continuing shrinking of the number of homes for sale, which averaged only half the level of 2014.

The first chart, with the numbers below, shows the median price for the two halves of the year and for the full year. But for 2005, 2016 would have represented a new high.

Save $6 million on this English mansion
Westbourn is a new mansion of approx 22,087 sq ft gross external area plus a 1,000 sq ft roof terrace, built from natural Bath stone and standing in beautiful landscaped grounds. It is on the market for £23 million. Before Brexit that would have been about $33 million, but now it can be yours for a mere $27 million. My number is at the bottom of this post. Call and I’ll fly over with you to close the deal. One word of caution: the buyer must like grey and chocolate – or face a huge painting bill.
