Newton real estate Market Report.
Information and statistics on the latest trends in the Newton real estate market, updated for April 2026. *
Inventory in Newton is tight, with only 14 homes on the market and 10 going under contract in February 2026, and supply down 12.5% month over month and 30% year over year. With 2 months of supply and pending sales up 25% from last year, properties are moving quickly through the pipeline.
Pricing is responding to this lower supply, as the typical home value sits at $360,000 and the median list price has climbed to $409,500, up 6.5% month over month. Homes are selling briskly with a median of 15 days on market, down more than 80% from the prior month and about 21% lower than a year ago, and sellers are often achieving strong results with about 57% of sales closing above list price and an average sale-to-list ratio of roughly 1.08.
Looking ahead to March 2026, projections show the typical home value rising to about $382,500 and the median list price edging up to $422,000, even as inventory is expected to dip slightly to 13 homes. Compared with Sussex County overall, where typical values are around $408,500 and also projected to increase, Newton’s seller-friendly conditions are reflected in its seller’s market rating on the market gauge. In this kind of fast-moving environment, both buyers and sellers can benefit from Agent Pronto’s help connecting with an experienced local agent who understands these trends.
Market gauge is calculated based on the the number of active listings divided by home sales over the most recently available reporting period.
