With a population of around 25,000 at the time of the 2010 U.S. Census, the Middlesex County town of Burlington is large enough to have plenty to offer house hunters of all kinds. Considered a part of the Greater Boston Area, this town is about 12 miles northwest of downtown Boston and is bordered by several communities, including Lexington, Billerica, Bedford and Wilmington. Largely residential in nature, its market includes a nice mix of options. Therefore, whether you need to buy a house or want to rent an apartment, you should have lots of options at your disposal.
One thing that you’re unlikely to find when seeking a new home in this town is an amazing deal. Historically, prices in this area tend to be far higher than the state average. In Massachusetts as a whole, for example, the median list price for residential properties is around $419,000. Meanwhile, the median list price for properties in this town is $600,000. As far as sale or closing prices are concerned, the median for the state is $356,000 while the median for this town is $542,000. Although it seems strange, the median price per square foot for properties in this city is $249 versus $242 statewide.
The real estate market of Burlington is generally quite good. Homes here tend to sit on the market only for about three weeks, which is fairly standard and suggests that this isn’t quite a seller’s market or buyer’s market. Therefore, it’s even more crucial to have an expert by your side, as you have an opportunity to negotiate to a better deal. There isn’t usually a huge inventory on the market, and that is another reason why it can be a bit complicated to find what you need—and why it’s so wise to connect with Boston City Properties.
Across the town of Burlington, there are nearly 9,400 residential properties spanning all categories. Of that figure, around 66 percent are detached single-family homes; around 30 percent are apartments; and around 4 percent are townhouses or condos. Throughout the town, around 70 percent of residential properties are owned, around 30 percent are rented and around 5 percent are vacant. The year-over-year appreciation rate for residential real estate here, 7.11 percent, is a bit higher than the state average of 6.86 percent, so you shouldn’t have to worry about retaining or gaining value.
What kind of property do you need in Burlington? Regardless of the answer, Boston City Properties has a wealth of resources for assisting you:
- Single-family homes – With more than 66 percent of the more than 9,300 residential properties here classified as single-family homes, this is going to be one of the easiest types of property to find. Still, it’s not like any house in the town will suit your needs. Detached homes here span many prices, ages, designs and other attributes, so it helps enormously to have all of the help that you can get. Our search feature has filters that can be adjusted to zero in on homes that meet more specific requirements.
- Townhouses and condos – Although only around 4 percent of the properties here are classified as townhomes or condos, there are still usually at least a handful of options out there at any particular time. That’s true regarding condos and townhouses for sale; if you want to rent one of these properties, it may be a bit trickier. We can refer you to a Burlington real estate expert who can help you find what you need faster and easier thanks to their connections and insider knowledge.
- Apartments – Unfortunately, you’re not going to get a bargain when renting a home in this town. The median monthly rent for MA is around $2,500, and the median rent in this town is around $2,500 a month too. However, this also means that you shouldn’t face exceptionally high rent prices, which is reassuring. Around 30 percent of residential properties here are apartments, so you should have a decent selection to choose from. You can search our listings to check current availability for apartments in this town and in towns and cities across the state.
