West Side is currently tilted toward sellers, with the market gauge at 9 out of 10. Homes here are valued around $811,500, higher than Wakefield overall at $785,000, reflecting strong demand even as conditions have cooled slightly.
Recent numbers show a tight supply, with only 9 homes on the market in February, down about 31% from the prior month and 10% from last year. At the same time, new listings dropped nearly 58% year over year to just 11, and pending sales fell about 57%, suggesting fewer options and slower buyer activity despite a median of 21 days on market holding steady.
Pricing trends highlight some shifting dynamics, as the median list price of $649,000 is down more than 20% month over month, and projections point to about $566,050 and 7 active listings in March. Even with these adjustments, roughly 38% of recent sales closed above asking and the average sale-to-list ratio is just over 1.00, indicating that well-priced homes can still draw strong offers, so both buyers and sellers can benefit from an Agent Pronto–recommended agent to navigate this market effectively.
