Sales surged in Haverhill in July 2025, even as prices eased, signaling strong buyer demand alongside thinner over-asking premiums, according to data compiled by the Massachusetts Association of Realtors (MAR).
The single-family market led the way, with notable year-over-year gains in sales activity and continued tight supply.
For single-family homes in July, the median sales price slipped more than 5 percent to $631,750, while closed sales jumped 58 percent from 24 to 38 houses sold compared to July 2024.
Inventory remained constrained, falling 16 percent to 38 homes for sale, and the number of months of supply tightened to 1.3 months, down 35 percent from 2.0 months in July 2024. Such conditions typically favor home sellers.
Homes still commanded, on average, more than the listing price, with the percentage of the original list price received at nearly 101 percent, down from about 102 percent in July 2024.
Forward indicators showed strength. Pending sales more than doubled to 47 from 22, representing a 114 percent increase, and new listings rose 30 percent from 27 to 35, providing fresh options for homebuyers. Real estate activity in Haverhill appears robust.
