The housing shortage in Massachusetts is a real thing depending on where you live in the commonwealth. Some spots are hotter than others when it comes to the real estate market, some are cooler.
Market correction after the pandemic is happening, but real estate is still hot in Massachusetts. The economy is good here, severe weather is low risk, and people are staying in their homes longer. These all contribute to a sellers market.
