Falmouth, MA Housing Market Outlook

In 2024, the Falmouth real estate market worked hard to surpass 2023, achieving slightly higher sales and lower prices, mirroring national trends fueled by strong demand and limited inventory. Many sellers hesitated to list due to low pre-pandemic mortgage rates, but necessity and life changes drove increased activity, making competitive pricing crucial. Despite affordability challenges from rising rates and home prices, buyers remained determined. Those actively searching had to stay proactive and prepared to act quickly when the right opportunity arose.

The market started as a seller’s market but gradually shifted toward buyers with a surge of activity later in the year, setting the stage for a rebound in 2025. Despite rising costs, homeownership remained attractive due to fixed payments, equity growth, and potential tax benefits, reinforcing its long-term value over renting. As Anthony noted in his 2025 Predictions, “I believe 2025 will mark the beginning of this recovery, with 2026 poised to be a historic year for the industry as sales normalize.”
