Agent Takeaway — August 2026

A high-end June pushed the median well past $1.2M

Marblehead's June median sale price jumped to $1,210,000, up 27.5% year-over-year, on 48 closings versus 46 a year ago — a mix shift toward waterfront and Neck inventory more than a broad repricing, since Zillow's typical home value is up just 1.1% to $1,060,024. Homes also moved faster, selling in an average of 33 days against 41 last year, and the Compete Score holds at 89 (“Very Competitive”). Median price per square foot is $548, up 15.1%, which is the cleaner read on underlying value. With 53 active listings, tell sellers the headline median reflects what sold in June, not what every house is worth.
