Homes For Sale in Boylston Market Report

In the town of Boylston, another small town much like Berlin, we see a similar pattern. There's a little more data here, so we'll look a little closer. First off, we see that Boylston hits a record for it's HSI, at 95, a substantial jump from 82, but hardly like the other HSI that we are seeing along the pike. Actives are down - but sales are too - coming off the seasonal peak. So overall, the market remained strong through the fall, and Boylston is positioned for a wave of activity when the market begins to see some inventory.

A small pull back in home prices doesn't mean demand is falling in Boylston.  Yet.

Can’t see the chart? You can find it Here .

Once again though, we do see a drop in $/sq foot. Is that the sign of the market softening? No, I don't think so. Looking back to January in 2013, we see the $/ sq foot clocked in at $153, so we're actually up over 10% year over year. That's a big surge in any book, and with a climbing HSI, I would say prices are still headed up.

The next town up is Clinton, which should give us a little more volume, and is right between Berlin and Boylston, so should give us a rounded out picture of the northwest corner of Metrowest.
