2022 SECOND QUARTER

Market Insights

Move beyond your expectations.

A L ET T ER FROM OU R

Chief Executive Officer We are honored to share with you the current real estate market report for the second quarter of 2022 in Eastern Massachusetts. Real estate has been in the news a lot lately and many of the headlines are quite dramatic. Let me share what is REALLY happening.

As you know from our last report, the real estate market has been very hot over the last two and a half years ? particularly in the suburbs and on Cape Cod. The forecast of rising interest rates had the market moving at a feverish pace in early spring, with buyers trying to make their purchases before the rates rose.

As predicted, interest rates have risen, as a result of the Fed?s attempts to temper inflation. While the feverish pace has cooled for several segments of the market, it has not created a ?slow market? or a ?buyer?s market?. We would consider this to be more of a ?normalizing? market. For instance, rather than 20 offers on one home, we see a few offers. Instead of selling within hours of a home?s market launch, it sells within days or weeks.

Have the higher rates affected buyers? The short answer is yes. Some buyers have opted to step away and are renting a home. This has put pressure on the rental market in some areas, with rental prices having risen as a result. Other buyers have, instead, reassessed their price ranges and have continued their purchase searches. These people have the benefit of a cooler market.

A few of the ?click-bait? headlines suggested that the bubble was bursting. However, real estate experts don?t see the conditions that led to the bubble that burst in 2008. Stringent lending policies have led to more responsible and sustainable mortgages. Buyers have equity in homes where they put down substantial down payments. And we don?t have an abundance of supply ? in fact, we could all benefit from additional supply. So, we don?t have a pre-bubble scenario. It is just more of a balanced market, with buyers gaining a bit more bargaining power in the marketplace.

If we can help you create a strategy to make your real estate dreams happen, please feel free to contact us. We would be honored to help you.
