South Coast Market Heats Up: A Look at March 2025 Real Estate Trends
Spring has sprung, and so has the South Coast real estate market! Here at Bernadette Kelly Group, we’re seeing the energy and optimism that this time of year brings, mirroring trends across the state. Let’s dive into the key insights for March 2025, combining the latest data from the Massachusetts Association of REALTORS® (MAR) with a closer look at our local South Coast communities..
Statewide, MAR reports a significant increase in new listings, with single-family homes up by a robust 21.4% and condominiums by 21.2% compared to last March. This surge in inventory offers more choices for eager buyers entering the market. Locally, as you can see in our South Coast Market Update graphic for March 2025, we’re also experiencing this influx of new properties, setting the stage for a dynamic spring season.
The median sales price statewide for single-family homes saw a modest increase of 4.3% to $626,000 since February, while condominiums rose by 1.6% to $540,000. Our local data for the South Coast in March 2025 reveals varying trends across Marion, Mattapoisett, Rochester, and Wareham, highlighting the hyper-local nature of our market. Understanding these nuances is where our expertise at Bernadette Kelly Group truly shines.
Interestingly, statewide closed sales also saw a positive jump since February, with single-family homes up by 10.8% and condominiums by an impressive 24.3%. While our local March 2025 graphic shows a mixed bag in closed sales year-over-year across the four towns, the overall momentum suggests a healthy level of activity as we move further into spring.
As Sarah Gustafson, 2025 president of MAR, aptly stated, “Although a surge of new listings during the spring months is expected, the year-over-year increase of new listings is a very positive sign as housing demand continues to exceed supply.” We echo this sentiment here on the South Coast. While inventory remains a consideration, the increase in new properties provides a fantastic opportunity for motivated buyers.
What does this mean for you?
- For Buyers: The increase in new listings means more options are becoming available. Now is the time to stay focused on your search and be ready to act when the right property comes along.
- For Sellers: The strong buyer demand, coupled with increasing new listings, creates a favorable environment to put your property on the market.
At Bernadette Kelly Group, we are closely monitoring these trends in Marion, Mattapoisett, Rochester, and Wareham. Our deep understanding of the local market, combined with the broader insights from MAR, allows us to provide you with the expert guidance you need to navigate the spring real estate landscape successfully.
