Is Now Finally the Right Time to Sell?

Homeowners with low mortgage rates are starting to list—here’s why it might be your best chance to move.

Is Now Finally the Right Time to Sell?

Over the past two years, many homeowners in Massachusetts have felt “locked in” by their historically low mortgage rates—often between 2% and 4%. But something has changed in 2025.

We’re now seeing more and more homeowners decide that life changes, equity growth, and new goals are worth more than holding on to a low interest rate. This shift is leading to a steady rise in home listings across the South Shore and surrounding communities.

Here’s what that could mean for you:

  • More competition for buyers — With increased inventory, buyers finally have options, but the best-priced and best-prepped homes are still moving quickly.

  • Still-high buyer demand — Despite interest rates hovering around 6–6.5%, motivated buyers are back in the market this spring.

  • Tons of equity in your home — The median Massachusetts home price is now around $580,000, meaning most long-term owners are sitting on sizable gains.

If you’ve been on the fence, this spring could be a rare opportunity to move while demand remains high and supply is just beginning to catch up.
