Here we’ve got a summary analysis of sales in March for all Greater Boston Area zip codes. There’s a lot of great information in here, so check it out. I’m just thankful I’m not buying in Newton Centre.

A snapshot of a few zip codes. See here for all zip codes.

A few highlights:

Median market time ranged from 81 days in 01773 (Lincoln) at the high end, to 01908 (Nahant) at just 2 days.

The largest average amount over asking was in 02170 (Quincy), 02108 (Boston), and 02459 (Newton Centre) at 10%. That means that if you see a house listed in those zip codes at $700,000, you should expect to pay $770,000.

01773 (Lincoln) had the largest average discount from asking at 6%.

Most expensive? 02110 (Boston) at $1,379 per square foot.

Cheapest? 01905 (Lynn) at just $215 per square foot.

The median for the whole Boston area in March was $358 per square foot and a sale price of $550,000. The average market time was 20 days, and there was a 1% premium paid over asking.
