In Downtown Boston, price trend indicators have once again reached historic levels as we move through 2026. After a period of market "freezing" in late 2024 and 2025, the release of pent-up demand has pushed median prices in the downtown core toward new records.
The townhouse and luxury condo markets remain particularly brisk. In the townhouse sector, the median price has risen for consecutive quarters, reflecting a "supply cliff" where the lack of new groundbreakings over the last two years has made existing inventory even more valuable.
