🚀 The Golden Window: Why Now Is the Best Time to Buy a Home in Greater Boston (and Beyond!)
Hey Boston Homebuyers! Have you been waiting for the perfect moment? Well, it’s time to lean in! 👈
October 2025 is officially shaping up to be the best month to buy all year, according to Realtor.com.
The Breakdown (Why Now Rocks) 🤘
Realtor.com says that by mid-October, buyers will finally find the right combination of:
- 📈 More homes to choose from (hello, inventory!).
- 📉 Less competition from other buyers.
- ⏱️ More time to browse (no more 15-minute showings!).
- 💰 Better home prices are in sight.
- 🤝 Sellers who are more willing to negotiate.
This is a rare opportunity in a market that’s been tough for almost a decade.
Your City’s Sweet Spot 🎯
The national “Best Week” falls between October 12–18, but every local market has its own peak time.
For the Boston-Cambridge-Newton, MA-NH Metro Area, the best time to buy is:
- October 26 – November 1 🗓️
But don’t wait for that exact week! Your best strategy starts now to be ready when that window opens.
What the Real Estate Experts Say
The pros are all in agreement: This is your moment.
Lawrence Yun (Chief Economist, NAR): Buyers are in the “best position in more than five years” to find the right house and negotiate a better price. Inventory is the highest it’s been since the May 2020 COVID lockdown.
Daryl Fairweather (Chief Economist, Redfin): Nationally, now is a good time to buy. “With falling mortgage rates and significantly more inventory, buyers have an upper hand in negotiations.”
NerdWallet: “This fall just might be the best window for home buyers in the past five years.”
Ready to Win? Your Next Move ♟️
If you’re serious about moving from your city rental or current home to a suburb like Walpole or Norwood, this is your golden window.
