Notice that UNLIKE Upton, Westborough home sellers are priced near the market - which is an indicator that sales will continue at a good pace. Even with prices up, and demand just as strong as in Upton - home sellers look to be far more rational.

What should active home buyers do in Westborough?

If you look at the detail data below, Westborough has been very busy in the last 3 months. That means most of the good stuff is gone - and what's left needs work or has other issues. Just because on average prices are near where they should be doesn't mean you don't need to be careful - if you are buying a home with more than the "average" number of issues, it may still be priced high. Just a reminder that trends are useful, but houses are individuals, and should be assessed as such.

 

What should potential home sellers do in Westborough?

Home sellers rejoice - the market is good. Prices are at the highest point since we've been tracking, and transaction volume is also at a record for Westborough. With inventory low, but not critically low, the Spring market - and really early 2016 - sets up well. Westborough looks to have a very strong year - as long as new listings don't get too far ahead of the market.
