For Massachusetts home buyers, 2025 did not deliver broad housing price relief, but condominiums came close.
The median price of a Massachusetts condominium rose by just $100 in 2025, to $550,000 from $549,900 in 2024, according to data compiled by the Massachusetts Association of Realtors (MAR).
Even so, condominium prices remain far higher than they were earlier in the decade: since 2020, when the median condo price was $419,400, prices have climbed 31 percent.
Single-family home prices continued to rise, though at a slower pace than in recent years. Sales in both markets increased modestly.
With inventory still tight, many of the same dynamics are likely to persist in 2026, though lower interest rates could improve affordability for some home buyers.
Local markets, however, vary widely in sales, prices, and inventory.
