Analysis of Housing Market Statistics Worcester , Massachusetts
The Worcester market has seen a big surge in inventory - about 70 homes - but has seen a similar rise in sales - about 66 homes. Big jumps in momentum, already evidently early in the spring season, bode well for Worcester, which still has a significant property
over hang. It is still a buyers market, but a less so. As the Sold days climb, it's primarily due to the longer listed property selling - generally a sign that more properties are finding prices they can be sold at. There are still large numbers of short-sales in Worcester that will put pressure on buyers to find property not impacted by the the restrictions that come with short-sales in this market. Foreclosures are down, just about 7 percent of total inventory.
