In first half of 2025
WAKEFIELD — During the first half of 2025, the median price of a single-family house sold in town was $850,000, according to the latest report from The Warren Group, a leading provider of national real estate and transaction data.
Through the end of June, 87 single-families were sold in Wakefield. The median sales price of $850,000 was 3 percent higher than the $825,000 median price fetched by the 84 single-families sold in town during the first six months of 2024.
Last month alone, according to The Warren Group, 24 single-families sold here for a median price of $876,224. In June 2024, 29 single-families changed hands for a median price of $843,000.
Statewide, the median single-family home price was $687,500 in June 2025, an increase of 3.1 percent over June 2024, according to The Warren Group.
In June, there were 4,706 single-family home sales in Massachusetts, a 5.5 percent increase from June 2024 when there were 4,459 transactions. Meanwhile, the median single-family home price increased 3.1 percent on a year-over-year basis to $687,500.
There were 19,065 condominium sales in the first six months of 2025, a 3 percent increase from 2024, in which there were 18,509. Meanwhile, the year-to-date median sale price increased 4.1 percent from 2024 to $620,000.
“Despite inventory increase in certain markets, median prices continue to rise, indicating no relief on prices,” said Cassidy Norton, associate publisher and media relations director at The Warren Group. “However, June historically has the highest number of sales of an individual month. It’s also usually the month where median sale prices peak. Moving into the latter half of the year, the overall median price will likely drop month-over-month, but not year-over-year.”
Condominiums
In Wakefield, 20 condos sold last month for a median price of $626,500. In June 2024, four condos sold here for a median price of $453,750.
Through the first six months of 2025, 51 condos had been sold here for a median price of $630,000. During the same period last year, 24 condos were sold for a median price of $548,000.
Across the state, there were 2,056 condominium sales in June 2025, compared to 1,938 in June 2024 – a 6.1 percent increase. Meanwhile, the median condo sale price dropped by 0.3 percent to $568,250 – a reduction of $1,750 versus the median sale price in June 2024.
There were 9,379 condominium sales in the first six months of 2025, a 4.7 percent increase from 2024, in which there were 8,955. Meanwhile, the year-to-date median sale price increased 0.9 percent from 2024 to $545,000.
“The median sale price for condos in June dropped versus 2024, but unfortunately, $1,750 is a statistically insignificant number,” Norton continued. “Still, price growth in the condo market is more contained than that of the single-family market, which is good news for buyers with flexibility in their choices.”
