February Review: Market Patterns to Watch

This month brought 54 new single-family homes and 18 condos to the market, keeping choices active for buyers. With 49 active single-family listings and a healthy pace of 48 single-family and 16 condo sales, absorption remains brisk. Median prices ($630,000 single-families; $430,000 condos) still guide buyer and seller decisions across segments. Check February’s final numbers in Shrewsbury, MA to align with the latest data.

Homes are spending 23 days (single-families) and 19 days (condos) on the market, while absorption rates (1.8 and 2.4 months of supply respectively) keep momentum high going into March. Active listing monitoring is the key to keeping pace and catching opportunities, especially in entry-level condos and high velocity home price bands.
