$1M Median Prices In Boston Area Towns

Interesting story from Scott detailing the rise in median prices in metro Boston.

The 9 Boston area towns where median home price has hit $1M

 By Scott Van Voorhis

Boston.com Correspondent

The median price of a single-family home has shot past the $1 million mark in several cities and towns across the Boston area during the first half of 2015, the latest real estate stats show.

Nine communities, from urban Cambridge to bucolic Lincoln, have seen their median home prices hit seven figures as demand for brand-name location combines with a shortage of homes for sale to drive up values.

Concord saw one of the biggest gains, with the median home prices in the historic town hitting $1,050,000 after a 24 percent leap this June compared to the same month a year before, the Massachusetts Association of Realtors reports.

Median prices in Winchester and Newton both rose by more than 20 percent, hitting $1,090,000 and nearly $1.2 million, respectively.

Brookline had the highest median price of any community in the state, weighing in at $1.6 million, followed by Cambridge, Weston and Lincoln, all at $1.4 million, according to MAR.

Wellesley followed at $1.2 million and Belmont at an even $1 million, with Lexington just under the $1 million mark, down at $965,000.

Other cities and towns posted impressive gains as well.

Somerville saw single-family prices skyrocket in June by over 50 percent, to $855,000. Through the first six months of the year, Somerville prices weighed in at a still lofty $621,600, the real estate group reports.

Condo prices in Somerville rose 12 percent through the first half of the year, hitting $552,500.

Bedford saw home prices rise 20 percent, to $785,000 in June, according to MAR.

Overall, sales and prices were up markedly across the state in June, making it the best month since August 2005, back during the last real estate boom, noted Tim Warren, chief executive of real estate market tracker and publisher, The Warren Group.

“We are seeing the early results from a strong spring market,” Warren said in a press release. “It is a remarkable showing after a prolonged slump and a sluggish recovery extending over the past 10 years.”

Parking In Provincetown = Pricey!

Interesting post by Jazmine at Curbed.com. There is lots of demand for parking in our little fishing village.

Provincetown’s Priciest Parking Space Wants Six Figures

Wednesday, August 12, 2015, by Jazmine Donaldson

5schoolsta.jpg

Compared with the price of parking spaces in Boston or —gasp!—Manhattan, this Provincetown spot is a virtual steal. Alas, as far as Cape Cod is concerned, the six figure asking price for a place to park is still pretty mind-boggling.

While PTown is the Cape’s best neighborhood for going car-free, not everyone arrives by boat, bus, bike, ferry, plane, or gyrocopter. Hence, there’s a very tight parking situation, making this tandem spot at 5 School Street look really rather dreamy.
5schoolview2.jpg
Gorgeous, right? The “Unique Parking Space Easement in the West End near Commercial Street” can accommodate two cars and is asking$100,000 with a condo fee of $50.
