Weekly Boston Real Estate Sales and Listings Update, April 29, 2005
Below is a report of sales and listing activity for the past week.
Information is derived from LINK, the online database that is used by most Boston
real estate agents.
New listings: 242
Back on market (listings that went
under agreement but deals fell through): 15
Price changes (almost always downward, but
some go up): 101
Under agreements: 184
Off market (variety of reasons, but
sometimes these are old listings that never sell): 53
My opinion: A healthy spring
market. Could still use a higher number of new listings, but I guess it’s not going to
happen. For every four that come on the market, three go under agreement (not exactly a true
analysis, but kind of).
