Salem Mid-Year 2024 Market Review

The median price of the SFHs sold in Salem in the first half of 2024 reached new highs – again – while the number of sales dropped, especially in Q2.
The median price of the Condos sold also rose, while sales were steady with the 2023 level.
Overall, 55% of Q1 sales and 70% of Q2 sales were over List Price

The median Price per Sq.Ft. can fluctuate Quarter to Quarter, but was consistent with the PSF in the second half of 2023 for SFHs and higher for Condos.
Sales continued at a brisk pace, reflecting both the shortage of supply and the continuing demand. (more…)

Swampscott Mid-Year 2024 Market Review

The median price of the SFHs sold in Swampscott in the first half of 2024 dropped from 2023, while sales were similar to last year’s level.
The small number of Condo sales took place between $450,000 and $3.3 million.
In Q2, 57% of all sales took place over List Price.

The median Price per Sq.Ft. can fluctuate Quarter to Quarter, but was similar overall in H1 2024 compared with 2023.

Essex County Mid-Year 2024 Market Review

The median price of the Condos sold was in line with the prior 12 months. Sales, while also well below their 2021 levels, had their best quarter since Q3 2022.
The record of sales taking place above List Price continued in 2024, with 50% of Q1 sales and 66% of Q2 sales, for SFs and Condos combined, above List Price.

The median Price per Sq.Ft. increased, especially in Q2. Sales continued at a brisk pace, reflecting both the shortage of supply and the continuing demand.
