Sales from July to August for both condos and single family homes in Newton, MA were very consistent. The change in the market snapshot for the Newton Real Estate Market for the month of August came from the amount of homes that were currently for sale. This change will help shift the market to a stronger seller’s market for the end of this period. Sellers, don’t get too excited… the month of September which is the start of the Fall market historically draws both more buyers as well as additional sellers to the market.
