November 2013

Quick Facts

November was largely another encouraging month for residential real estate.
Our attention has shifted from multiyear high prices and sales volumes to seller
activity, inventory levels and building permits. And let's not forget the calendar
effect. As families gather together, fewer house hunters are scheduling
showings and writing offers. Watch for month-to-month activity to moderate
while year-over-year comparisons remain strong.
New Listings in the Greater Boston region were up 4.6 percent for detached
homes and 0.2 percent for condominiums. Closed Sales decreased 12.1
percent for detached homes and 7.4 percent for condominiums.
The Median Sales Price was up 6.4 percent to $475,000 for single-family
properties and 7.9 percent to $410,000 for condominiums. Months Supply of
Inventory decreased 20.0 percent for single-family units and 28.8 percent for
townhouse-condo units.
Recent economic and jobs data have surprised to the upside by exceeding
expectations. This likely keeps the new Federal Reserve leadership on track for
March 2014 tapering. Non-farm payrolls grew by 204,000 jobs in October,
outperforming Wall Street expectations. In another bullish sign, August payrolls
were revised upward to a 238,000 job gain – positive momentum that should
support housing recovery. Just in time for the holidays.

November 2013 Greater Boston Real Estate Market Trends Report

  • 1. Monthly Indicators A RESEARCH TOOL PROVIDED BY THE GREATER BOSTON ASSOCIATION OF REALTORS® November 2013 Quick Facts November was largely another encouraging month for residential real estate. Our attention has shifted from multiyear high prices and sales volumes to seller activity, inventory levels and building permits. And let's not forget the calendar effect. As families gather together, fewer house hunters are scheduling showings and writing offers. Watch for month-to-month activity to moderate while year-over-year comparisons remain strong. New Listings in the Greater Boston region were up 4.6 percent for detached homes and 0.2 percent for condominiums. Closed Sales decreased 12.1 percent for detached homes and 7.4 percent for condominiums. The Median Sales Price was up 6.4 percent to $475,000 for single-family properties and 7.9 percent to $410,000 for condominiums. Months Supply of Inventory decreased 20.0 percent for single-family units and 28.8 percent for townhouse-condo units. Recent economic and jobs data have surprised to the upside by exceeding expectations. This likely keeps the new Federal Reserve leadership on track for March 2014 tapering. Non-farm payrolls grew by 204,000 jobs in October, outperforming Wall Street expectations. In another bullish sign, August payrolls were revised upward to a 238,000 job gain – positive momentum that should support housing recovery. Just in time for the holidays. - 9.9% - 12.1% - 7.4% Year-Over-Year (YoY) Change in Closed Sales All Properties Year-Over-Year (YoY) Change in Closed Sales Single-Family Only Year-Over-Year (YoY) Change in Closed Sales Condominium Only Single-Family Market Overview Condominium Market Overview Closed Sales Median Sales Price Housing Affordability Index Inventory of Homes for Sale Months Supply of Inventory Days On Market Until Sale Percent of Original List Price Received Pending Sales New Listings City of Boston Overview 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 Click on desired metric to jump to that page.
