PROVIDENCE – The median price of a single-family home in Bristol County, Mass., in October was $380,000, an 18.8% increase year over year. 

The median price of a single-family home in Massachusetts at that time was $455,000, a 17% rise from the same period last year.

In September, the median price of a single-family home in the county was $372,450.

“Despite higher COVID-19 infection rates, consumers across Massachusetts continued their real estate-buying binge in October,” said Timothy Warren Jr., CEO of The Warren Group. “Strong demand from buyers, scant supply from sellers, and rock-bottom interest rates continued to push the median single-family home price higher, and it has now been above $450,000 for four consecutive months.”

Sales in the county totaled 529 for the month, a rise from 418 one year prior.

There were 105 condominium sales in the county in October, a 9.4% rise year over year. The median sale price was $250,00, a rise from $220,000 in October 2019.

“The condo market slightly trailed the trends in the single-family market in October,” Warren continued. “Condo sales and prices are showing healthy gains, but not quite the frenzied interest buyers are showing for single-family homes.”
