April 2026 North Andover Market Snapshot
For April 2026, North Andover single family homes sold for $990,000 median sale price which was over the $905,000 list price. Price per square foot rose to $397. As of May 1, 2026, there were 5 active single family homes and 7 homes under agreement.
The most important number here may be inventory. With only 5 active homes available as of May 1, buyers have limited choices, which likely helped keep pressure on pricing and speed.
Year to Date Trends in North Andover

What Changed Compared With the Broader March Market?
The Andover Area March 2026 update, which included both Andover and North Andover, showed 19 sales, 8 days to offer, a median sale price of $900,000, and $403 per square foot.
North Andover’s April results were slightly different. The median sale price was higher at $990,000, while the median price per square foot was slightly lower at $397. Days to offer remained very fast, improving from 8 days in the broader March market to 7 days in North Andover for April.
Because the March image combines Andover and North Andover, this is not a direct town to town comparison. Still, it does show that the local market remained active and competitive heading into April.
What This Means for Sellers
For sellers, the April numbers suggest that demand is still strong for single family homes in North Andover. A median sale price above the median list price indicates that many homes are still receiving strong buyer interest.
Pricing, condition, layout, location, timing, and competition still matter. But with limited active inventory, sellers are in a strong position.
What This Means for Buyers
For buyers, the low days to offer number is important. In April, the median home went under agreement in about one week. That means buyers need to be ready before the right home comes on the market.
That includes working with a real estate agent who can respond quickly and use technology to be as fast as possible once a listing hits the market. In a low inventory market, waiting too long to act can mean missing opportunities.
Final Takeaway
North Andover’s April 2026 single family market remained fast moving, with limited inventory, strong sale prices, and homes going under agreement quickly. The market is not the same for every price point or neighborhood, but the overall data points to continued competition.
