North Andover MA Housing Market Update for Q1 2026
The North Andover, MA single family housing market saw more closed sales and higher overall pricing in Q1 2026 compared with the same period last year, although homes took longer to receive offers. As of April 9, 2026, North Andover had 11 homes active and 29 contingent and under agreement, which points to a busy spring pipeline.
What the numbers say
North Andover recorded 24 single family sales in Q1 2026, up from 15 sales in Q1 2025. The median days to offer increased from 7 days to 30 days, which is a noticeable slowdown from last year’s pace. Even so, homes still sold above asking on average.
The median list price rose from $740K to $865K, and the median sale price increased from $745K to $882K. At the same time, median price per square foot declined from $376 to $353. That may suggest a larger share of bigger homes sold this year, which can pull down the per square foot average even when total sale prices rise.
What it means for buyers in North Andover
For buyers, North Andover may feel a little less frantic than it did a year ago, but it is still not a weak market. Homes are taking longer to receive offers on average, which can give buyers slightly more time to evaluate opportunities. However, the fact that homes are still selling above asking on average shows that strong listings continue to draw competition.
What it means for sellers in North Andover
For sellers, this remains a positive market, especially with far more homes under agreement than active as of April 9. Still, this is not quite the same ultra fast environment reflected in last year’s speed to offer. Sellers should focus on accurate pricing, good preparation, and strong marketing rather than assuming the market will do all the work on its own.
