Homes For Sale in Southboro Market Report

As we look in the middle of our area, we take a glance at Southborough. Southborough is small, and not always representative, but is one of the reports I tend to scrutinize closer. As the most eastern "Worcester County" town, it can be a hallmark of how things are going to go around 495 and west. Let's take a look.

 

Active properties fall to the lowest level in two years, putting a crimp in

transaction volume.

Right off the bat, I notice one of the lower HSI's that we've seen in this round of reports. At 105, Southborough looks positively pedestrian compared to Natick's 300. Prices are

still rising though, and rising prices through the fall typical indicates that there are certainly price pressures in Southborough. Really, the days on market for the active properties is very short, just 136 days, showing that the sellers are under very little pressure to cut prices.

 

I think on balance, even though the HSI is lower, Southborough still looks like a very difficult market for buyers - and a very favorable one for sellers. One of the trends that Southborough does mirror is the inventory line - it is at the lowest data point since we've been tracking.
