Balanced Market = Opportunity

⚖️ 2026 Market Shift: We’re entering a more balanced market:

Home prices still rising (approx. 2–5%)
Inventory gradually improving
Rates stabilizing

This creates opportunity on BOTH sides:
🏡 Buyers → more negotiating power
🏡 Sellers → still benefiting from strong pricing

The South Shore continues to be one of the most desirable regions in Massachusetts — and long-term value remains strong.

Curious what this means for your specific town? Let’s connect.

Buyer Demand is Heating Back Up

📈 Buyer Activity is Back: Existing home sales rose recently as buyers jumped back in when rates briefly eased.

What I’m seeing locally on the South Shore:
✨ Increased showings
✨ More multiple-offer situations (especially under $1M)
✨ First-time buyers re-entering the market

Even with higher rates, buyer demand hasn’t disappeared — it’s just more strategic.

Thinking about making a move this spring or summer? Now is the time to prepare.

Inventory is Rising…But Still Tight

📊 Inventory Update: Housing inventory is up about 8% year-over-year, but still remains below pre-pandemic levels.

Translation for the South Shore market:
🏡 More choices than last year — but still not enough to meet demand
🔥 Well-priced homes are still moving quickly

If you’re selling:
✔️ You still have leverage
✔️ Pricing and presentation matter more than ever

If you’re buying:
✔️ More options = less pressure than 2021–2022
✔️ But competition hasn’t disappeared

Mortgage Rates Update + Buyer Strategy

📉 Mortgage Rate Watch (Spring 2026): Rates are currently hovering around 6.2%–6.6% for a 30-year fixed loan — slightly up from earlier this year but still below 2025 peaks.

What does that mean for you?
👉 Buyers are re-entering the market when rates dip — creating short bursts of competition.
👉 Locking in at the right moment can make a big difference in monthly payments.

💡 Strategy tip: If you’re waiting for “perfect” rates, you may miss the right home. You can always refinance later — but you can’t go back and buy a home that’s already sold.

🏡 Inventory Remains Limited

Inventory across much of the South Shore — including Weymouth and Braintree — remains relatively tight, which continues to benefit sellers.

When homes are priced correctly and marketed well, they’re attracting strong attention from buyers who want to move into these desirable communities.

Location, commuter convenience, and neighborhood amenities continue to drive demand.
