Rochester experienced an incredibly tight market in April 2026 with just 2 closed sales. The average price of $601,000 (a 30% decrease year-over-year) is entirely driven by the specific composition of those two properties. What stands out, however, is the demand for available inventory: these homes spent an average of just 28 days on the market and sold for 101% of their asking price, proving that well-positioned properties are still highly competitive.

For April 2026, Mattapoisett recorded 5 closed sales, bringing the average price to $833,000. While this looks like a 28% decrease year-over-year, in a low-volume market of just 5 homes, this shift primarily reflects the specific inventory mix available this month rather than a change in underlying property values. Properties that did sell moved at a healthy pace, averaging 57 days on market and retaining a strong 98% list-to-sales price ratio.

If your yard gets baked by the coastal sun, the type of planter you choose matters just as much as how often you water it. ☀️

We recommend avoiding dark plastics that absorb heat. Instead, opt for large cement planters, terra cotta, or wooden boxes. These materials breathe well and prevent the roots from baking in the afternoon heat! Find more curb appeal and staging tips on our latest blog.

Does cutting back your plants make you nervous? Try our "rotating prune" method! ✂️

Instead of doing a hard cutback all at once (which leaves bare spots), snip just one leggy stem per day, making your cut right at a node or joint. This encourages new growth without sacrificing the fullness of your beautiful planters. Get the rest of our seasonal landscaping tips on the blog!
