Analysis of Westborough Housing Market Statistics

Westborough, Massachusetts: Wow, lots to talk about in this report. At first glance, it looks like a ho-hum move sideways, maybe getting a little quieter, really not much to talk about report. But I also (this time of year) peek at the homes that are pending to see what next month might bring. And here's a stunner: 20% of the Westborough market is already sold. Westborough will probably show up next month with less than 45 houses, and I'm here to tell you, loyal readers, that is out-and-out no inventory for a town of Westborough's size. I hope the snow melts, and sellers show up, but I'm hard pressed to think that's going to happen. Buyers, if Westborough is your first choice, don't sit on the sidelines, get engaged, this market is going to be tough for you, and very competitive. Also shocking, Westborough has 11 short-sales and 4 lender owned properties out of the 56. That's got to be the highest ratio of any towns I'm covering with the new format. But don't expect that to continue, as 6 of those short-sales are already sold (but they'll hang around in the stats for a long time, pushing up market time).
