A blustery March brought more inventory to Massachusetts’ tight housing market. Meanwhile, closed sales dipped year over year, according to the Massachusetts Association of REALTORS®.

Since March 2025, new listings grew by 1% for single-family homes and 17.2% for condos.

The median sales price for single-family homes grew by 4.4% year over year, while the condo market saw a price decrease of 1.5%.

Closed sales for single-family homes and condos fell by 2.2% and 1.3% respectively.

“March is typically the beginning of the spring market where we see a significant increase in enthusiasm from buyers and sellers alike,” said MAR President Kristen Keegan. “Sellers are ready to list their homes following the winter lull, leaving buyers in a better position to enter the market. We are hopefully seeing the start of a positive trend in the Massachusetts housing market, with the increase in new listings giving reason for optimism that a spike in closed sales is on the horizon.”
