The Middlesex County town of Concord is located about 25 miles northwest of the city of Boston. At the time of the 2010 U.S. Census, its population totaled around 17,700. Covered mostly by the 01742 zip code, this town is bordered by a number of communities, including Maynard, Sudbury, Acton and Bedford. Many homes in this town are located within sight of the Concord River, from which the town gets its name. Homes here are costly, and the cost of living is high too. The average cost of living score in the U.S. is 100. On the cost of living index, however, Concord gets a score of 158.9, which is very high. In comparison, the cost of living across MA is around 137.7.
Knowing what you do now about the cost of living in Concord, you probably already know that real estate here tends to be very expensive too. Indeed, the median list price and sale price here lately has been $1.4 million and $920,000 respectively, making this one of the most expensive markets in the state. By comparison, the median list and sale price for MA as a whole has been $419,000 and $356,000 respectively. The cost per square foot across the state, $242, is also far lower than this town’s, which is $403.
As for the overall health of the Concord real estate market, it is robust indeed. In fact, one could argue that this town has one of the best markets in the state lately. Currently, fewer than 3 percent of residential properties in this town have negative equity, which is quite good. It means that the vast majority of properties here have considerable value—and it also suggests that buying real estate here is a worthwhile investment even if you’re not technically investing but looking for a place to call home.
The length of time that homes sit on the market is often a good indicator of its overall health. In Concord lately, residential properties have been staying on the market for around 79 days. This is pretty long, as homes should ideally sell within a few weeks or a month or so. There are generally around 95 homes on the market, however, so the pickings aren’t slim. The main reason that homes sit on the market so long mostly has to do with their prices and exclusivity, as these homes are priced beyond most buyers’ budgets.
Buying real estate in Concord is a smart move when you consider how well properties here hold their value. As noted previously, a very small number of homes here have negative equity, which is reassuring. It should also be noted that the year-over-year appreciation rate for residential real estate hovers around 2.7 percent, which is quite good. That is particularly true when you consider the high value of the properties in this town. Remember that homes here tend to be quite large, which may make them trickier to sell when the time comes.
