The Upton Homes For Sale Market Report

Nestled just outside I-495, Upton often gets overlooked, but as prices have moved up steadily in surrounding towns, buyers are finding - and liking - the value in Upton. At first glance, it looks like the market is cooling off, but homes for sale is just coming off an extremely low number, that goosed the HSI in the last report.

Prices tell the story here - they've moved up - but they are still behind where they were last year. It's not easy to see why, but Upton is a small town with a small data set, so the numbers don't always tell the complete story.

What should active home buyers do in Upton?

If you can find something in Upton, and you might, make sure you check the valuation. While sellers aren't overly optimistic, on average, a few are trying to stretch prices. This market isn't quite hot enough to do that, and although the sellers haven't been sitting around very long, in a couple of months were likely to see quite a few price changes.

What should potential home sellers do in Upton?

Home sellers should recognize that reaching for a price at this time in the market cycle is likely a mistake. There's not enough pressure or traffic to do that. When the buyers come back, they will be choosing best available, and you'll need to be the best available when that happens. Position yourself to today's market - not last months.
