📊 Central MA Market Pulse | Week 29

July 12 – July 18, 2026

The Massachusetts housing market continued to settle into a more balanced pattern this week. Here's what stood out. 👇

🏡 Massachusetts Inventory Update

📈 Inventory continues to grow and is now 17% higher than this time last year, giving buyers significantly more choices than they had throughout most of 2025.

🔎 What This Means

✅ 1,129 new homes hit the market this week.

✅ Pending sales jumped 36%, a great sign that buyers are actively writing offers.

✅ Closed sales increased 20%, showing that transactions continue to move toward the closing table.

✅ Inventory continues its steady climb, creating a healthier, more balanced market across Massachusetts.

💡 My Take

This week's report is encouraging for both buyers and sellers.

While new listings dipped slightly, buyer activity picked up considerably. A 36% increase in pending sales tells me that buyers are gaining confidence and taking advantage of the increased inventory we've seen over the past several weeks.

The biggest trend remains inventory. More homes are available than we've seen in quite some time, but the best homes—those that are priced correctly and marketed well—are still selling quickly.

Central MA Market Pulse | Week 28

July 5 – July 11, 2026

After the Fourth of July slowdown, the Massachusetts housing market bounced back this week. Here's what happened. 👇

🏡 Massachusetts Inventory & Mortgage Rate Update

🏠 Current Active Homes for Sale: 7,351

📈 Inventory rebounded by 411 homes from last week's 6,940, climbing back above the 7,000-home milestone.

💰 Average 30-Year Mortgage Rate: 6.68%

Despite mortgage rates remaining near 6.7%, inventory continues to build, giving buyers more choices than they've had in years.

🔎 What This Means

✅ The market bounced back after the holiday week, with 1,268 new homes coming to market.

✅ Inventory climbed back above 7,300 active homes, continuing the overall trend of increased housing supply.

✅ Pending and closed sales were down this week, but those numbers often lag behind changes in inventory and can fluctuate from week to week.

✅ Wednesday remains the busiest day to list a home, with 361 new listings.

💡 My Take

This week confirms that the sharp drop we saw over the Fourth of July was seasonal rather than a sign of a slowing market.

The biggest story continues to be inventory. Massachusetts now has 7,351 active homes for sale, up 16% compared to this time last year. Buyers have more options, but homes that are priced well and marketed effectively are still attracting attention.

As inventory grows, strategy becomes even more important. Sellers need to stand out, and buyers have more opportunities to find the right home without feeling as rushed as they did a year ago.

📊 Central MA Market Pulse | Week 27

June 28 – July 4, 2026

The Fourth of July holiday had a noticeable impact on the Massachusetts housing market this week, but there are still some important trends to watch. 👇

🏡 Massachusetts Inventory & Mortgage Rate Update

🏠 Current Active Homes for Sale: 6,940

📉 Inventory dipped below 7,000 active homes this week, largely due to the holiday slowdown in new listings.

💰 Average 30-Year Mortgage Rate: 6.65%

Even with mortgage rates remaining in the mid-6% range and fewer homes coming to market, closed sales still increased 5%, showing committed buyers are continuing to move forward.

🔎 What This Means

✅ The Fourth of July week brought a significant slowdown in new listings, with only 424 homes coming to market.

✅ Pending sales also softened, which is common during a holiday week when many buyers and sellers pause their searches.

✅ Closed sales still increased 5%, a sign that transactions already in progress continued to move toward the closing table.

✅ While inventory dipped back below 7,000 homes, it's still 15% higher than this time last year, showing that the market remains healthier than it was in 2025.

💡 My Take

I wouldn't read too much into this week's numbers by themselves.

Holiday weeks almost always see fewer new listings and less buyer activity. The bigger picture is what matters.

Just two weeks ago, Massachusetts reached a milestone by surpassing 7,000 active homes, and even after this holiday slowdown, we're still sitting at 6,940 active homes—well above where we were earlier this year.

I'll be watching closely over the next couple of weeks to see if inventory rebounds as the market gets back to its normal rhythm.
