What it means
Reading the Northfield market
With so few sales, town-wide averages swing a lot from one period to the next, so treat any headline number with care. What matters is the handful of homes that truly compare to yours. Each sale here sets the comp for the next one, which makes the pricing call on every listing unusually important.
Well-priced houses still sell in about five weeks, at roughly 98% of their original list price.
