Rising Home Values
The median home value in Massachusetts is considerably higher than the U.S. average. In addition, home prices are expected to rise by more than 7% in the next year.
High Property Taxes
Massachusetts ranks in the top ten nationally for highest property taxes. As a result, it’s made homeownership less desirable and increased rent prices.
High Foreclosure Rates
Over 7% of Massachusetts homeowners are behind on their mortgage payments. Therefore, the abundance of foreclosed properties has provided numerous investment opportunities for investors to take advantage of.
Nearly 80% of Massachusetts residents live near the Greater Boston Area, making it one of the most coveted places in the state. Sure, one can find opportunities in Cambridge, Brookline, Newton, etc…but that is where everyone is going to likely invest. As such, you will note that a majority of investment deals occur in this greater metro region. However, that does not mean that there are less opportunities in other parts of New England.
