Paine's Creek Beach, Brewster July's market data are in, and it is looking like June was in fact our peak for the year so far. Although July closed out with a very strong median 13 days on market, new listings dropped 20% to only 294 and sale price is 98.8% of list price. This shows a modest slump year-to-date, but compared to 2025 we're in almost exactly the same place. Both median sale price and # sales are within 2% of their 2025 values at this time. If this was the De

Happy Summer dear readers! And what a summer it's been for Cape Cod Real Estate - June entered with a bang, and this month's numbers are showing how loud that bang was - nearly 30% more listings closed in June than the month before, and they sold for a comfortable 3% higher price.

Well, the long-awaited spring market is officially upon us!! Days on market has plummeted from a high of 45 in January to 8 at time of writing. In addition, median % of asking price received ticked up to 101.5% for the first time since June of last year. On the whole, we are finally seeing a strong and fast market after a slow start to the year.

After seeing a bump in activity in March, the April market consolidated around those gains and showed remarkable consistency. Incredibly, days on market, median sale price, and number of closed sales remain unchanged over March numbers.

Cape Cod saw a small decline in summer bookings compared to 2024, according to our advertising partners at weneedavacation.com. The frenzy of COVID bookings has clearly ended and now the vacation market is stabilizing, though at higher prices and higher demand than pre-pandemic levels. We expect 2026 to have similar booking rates to 2025 on Cape Cod.

In 2025 the Cape Real Estate market showed continued consolidation of 2024 trends. Inventory remains low (530 active units at time of writing), but days on market has climbed to its highest monthly average (46 days) since prior to COVID. Similarly, percentage of sale price received by sellers has returned to it’s long-term average of approximately 95%. This continues the trend that started in 2024 of homes selling for slightly less than asking price, after more days on the ma

After a year of mixed signals, 2025 went out with a whimper. The number of single family homes for sale dipped to a 2-year low in December. Taken on it’s own, that fact would be cause for concern. However, during the same period Days on Market ticked up to it’s second-highest level (32 days). These two metrics combine to suggest a slump both in buyer and seller activity during the normally slow holiday season.

2024 was another great year but the Cape Cod vacation rental market is settling down after the craziness of COVID. Let's dig in. 2024 bookings were very strong...but ...demand slowed in 2024. The majority of our homes filled their available summer dates, but for the first time in years, we had holes here and there. Clearly renters have backed off of their Cape Cod vacation frenzy and we expect this trend to continue with similar numbers in 2025. Off season interest has con
