The Waltham median home sale price is up 10 percent from 2024 year-over-year, but that figure for condos is down just as much. The median sale price for condos in 2025 so far sits at $631,000, down from over $700,000 last year.
“A significant increase in condo inventory earlier this year contributed to a surge in sales and helped keep prices down,” Norton continued. “Lower interest rates on mortgages also contributed to the increase in sales, although some buyers may be holding off to see if rates come down further later this year or early next.”
