Average Home Price Arlington MA

How Is Average and Median Price Calculated?

In order to calculate an average home sale price, divide the total number of homes sold by the total sum of all home sale prices.  Find the median sale price by sorting the data from the lowest to highest price, then find the middle value.  It is not unusual in our local markets for the average sale price and median sale price to be significantly different.

Why Is Median Home Price Important?

Despite the fact that most media outlets will focus on the average home sale price in news about real estate; the median sale price is also very important.  Mortgage underwriters watch median home sale price activity to determine risk for lending in any given market.  An underwriter will typically analyze median home sale price activity either by a postal zip code or by the county as a whole.

Changes in the median home price will indicate if the home values are increasing or decreasing.  Many factors determine the costs associated with a home mortgage loan.  For example, borrowers who purchase a home in a market with decreasing median home sale prices may receive a higher mortgage interest rate.  For this reason it is very important to give your mortgage lender the property address before submitting an offer to purchase.
