2019 Spring Market Update
A rainy April has come and gone, and now we’re half way through May. Let’s take a quick look at the spring real estate market for the state of Massachusetts...
Pricing
Single-family: Median prices for single family homes have risen 2% since last year to $395,000.Condominiums: Median prices for condos have decreased by less than 1% to $375,000.
Sales
Single-family: Pending single-family sales are up 14% from last year to over 6,400 homes in the month of April.Condominiums: Pending condo sales have risen 11% to 2,500 for the month of April.
What does this all mean?
The Spring market is strong once again, but it's a bit more reasonable. Homes are selling relatively quick, with an average of just over 30 days to offer. Multiple offers are common, but 25% of realtors are reporting that their listings did not have multiple offers. Overall pricing is steady. This signals that the market is strong, but not irrational as it has been in the past, which is great for buyers and still good for sellers.In summary, it's a typical busy Spring market! Curious to chat about what this means for you and your home's value? We're always here to help!

MLSPIN #: 72484762View on Google MapsWelcome to 49 Chestnut St, a traditional NE farmhouse tastefully updated to offer you the convenience of today while maintaining the quaintness of a simpler time. Turn the crank doorbell and come on into the sun-soaked entry. Off the entryway is a bright and cheery dining space, which connects to the living room and kitchen. The living room has direct access to the wrap around porch that is as pretty as it is functional. The kitchen overlooks the backyard and features a coffered ceiling, tin like backsplash, and pantry. Off of the kitchen is the convenience of a 1/2 bathroom with laundry. The farmhouse charm continues upstairs with slanted ceilings, built in cubbies and wooden floors. But, the show stopper is the spa-like bathroom with soaking tub! The backyard is expansive and features many mature plantings. A perfect home in a perfect location - It’s walkable to the town center, trails, fishing, and just a short drive to Trader Joes!

A Letter from the Sellers
When we first moved to Foxboro from Boston, we had no idea what a great town it was. We were nervous about leaving the convenience of the city behind. Fortunately, we quickly realized that this home allowed us to keep all of the benefits of city living, without the craziness, or the traffic, that came with it. Almost anything you could need is within a 10 minute drive, whether you are heading to stores down the street, Patriot Place, or Mansfield Crossing. There is also easy access to Routes 95 and 495.We have walked to numerous town events on the Common, including the farmer’s market and the Foxboro Founders’ Day Parade. We have also been able to walk to the playground and even the fire station’s open house with our children. And, we even got to to trick or treat with a few Superbowl champions just down the street.What we did not expect when purchasing this home was all of the beautiful wildlife nearby. We discovered an entrance to a a hiking trail on the Lane Property just a short walk away. The Neponset Reservoir is across the street, and our daughter has enjoyed watching the ducks and swans take off and land over the years.We really love this home, and have made many joyful memories here. Our family has happily expanded, and so it is time for this home to have new owners. If you are lucky enough to make this house your home, we wish you many happy memories here as well.
There's a lot to love in Foxboro!

Should you use a buyers agent?
This is actually one of the few no-brainers in real estate. The answer is YES, and while that may sound biased coming from us, here are the reasons why:
- It’s FREE to you. Seriously. A buyer's agent is paid out of the seller’s agent’s commission. Some people think that by not using an agent, they can save the money that the buyers agent would have been owed. That’s not the case, 99% of the time the seller’s agent will just keep the full commission for themselves. (Note to sellers: We don’t do that!)
- If you enter into a deal with just the seller and their agent, then no one will be looking out for you. The seller’s agent is only concerned with getting the best deal for their client. A buyer’s agent has the fiduciary responsibility to look out for your best interests.
- Real estate transactions can be complicated and cumbersome. Unless you are well-versed in these transactions, navigating the steps of a real estate can be confusing and one small mistake could cost you thousands of dollars.
- A good real estate agent is worth their weight in gold, especially when you don’t have to pay them! An agent will help you avoid costly mistakes and negotiate the best deal possible for you. Moreover, a great agent will have a network of professionals who can help you with whatever the sale may throw your way - and many times they’ll save you money while doing so!
