I am focusing on what the sold numbers and active pricing mean for your next step.

Pricing is the part of the decision that matters most right now in Northborough, MA. Last month, the typical sale closed at $835,000 while active listings sat at a median list price of $782,500, which tells me strategy matters more than guesswork.
The most useful read is the spread between what is listed and what is actually closing. In Northborough, MA, the median sold price was $835,000, the median list price was $782,500, and buyers were paying 101.9% of asking last month. That is a clear signal to take pricing seriously. For sellers, I would not overreact to a list price and assume it will carry the day. For buyers, I would watch the sold numbers first, because that is where the market is showing its real willingness to pay. I would use this month to tighten expectations, compare the latest sold range against your target, and avoid making decisions off a headline asking price alone. In Northborough, MA, the numbers say the asking side is only part of the story.
