A double-digit spike in the median price of a single-family home in Massachusetts last month caused sales numbers to decline for the second month in a row.

Last year’s en-masse move to remote work has driven what Zillow has dubbed the Great Reshuffling, as homeowners working from home have paused and reevaluated where and how they live.

The increase was driven by a 21.6% month-over-month spike in the rate of new multifamily construction. Single-family housing starts, meanwhile, slid 2.8%.

September’s reading of 76 was up one point from August, despite lingering challenges with labor and the building-material supply chain, the National Association of Home Builders reported, citing the latest NAHB/Wells Fargo Housing Market Index.

Despite the drop in prices, supply and demand imbalances have many first-time homebuyers renting, increasing demand for those units and driving up those prices.

Month over month, home sales were down 3.5%, and the median sale price declined 1.2% to $335,000.

According to Realtor.com’s Best Time to Buy Report, between Sept 12 and Oct. 17 is the best time to sell a home in most markets, but what about in Boston?

August home sales fell for the first time in 12 months as median sales prices of both single-family homes and condominiums declined or stayed flat last month.

Wonder where Boston residents are headed? You might be surprised.

Pending home sales in August rose just 9%, the slowest growth since June 2020, according to a new Redfin report.

A decline in new home listings has had little impact on the market as far as demand is concerned, according to a recent Redfin report.

Income levels and mortgage rates gave homebuyers in June 129% more house-buying power than they had in 2006, according to First American Financial Corp.’s June Real House Price Index.

Housing inventory fell in Boston during August, while housing starts and existing-home sales rose.

The Cape Cod real estate market is showing signs of returning to normal, according to a new report from the Cape Cod & Islands Association of Realtors.

Massachusetts homebuyers should brace themselves amid expectations the residential real estate market could see double digit growth next year.
