2024 Northborough, MA Housing Market Outlook
The early part of the year typically favors sellers due to low housing inventory and high buyer demand. This combination often leads to bidding wars and upward pressure on home prices. However, as the year unfolds, more buyers find homes or renew leases, while a growing number of homeowners enter the market, particularly those experiencing life changes. This shift typically creates a more buyer-friendly environment in the latter part of the year with increased housing options and less competition. Sellers may need to adapt their pricing strategies to attract motivated buyers in this changing market. With mortgage rates holding steady in the high 6% to low 7% range and home values continuing to climb, buyers should stay informed and ready to seize opportunities, especially if interest rates unexpectedly decrease.
