Marblehead Q3 market hits new record high

Here is a summary of the market in Marblehead – a full report will be published shortly. Click Marblehead_Q3_2017_summary to download a printable copy of this summary.

Single Family Homes(SFH)
The median price of a SFH exceeded $700,000 for the first time in the third quarter. YTD the median price increased 7% to a new high of $656,000. With most of Q4 sales already under agreement, it is quite likely that the median price will exceed $700,000 for the second half of the year. Sales were down slightly YTD, a consequence of the low inventory all year.

Condos
Marblehead has a small condo market and one which varies from waterfront purpose-built condos to conversions of former apartments. As such, the median price can and does fluctuate. What is notable is that nearly half the sales this year to date have taken place at or above the list price.
