111. The Extinction of Plymouth Starter Homes
Every July, Plymouth's real estate market tells its own story, and this month's numbers are worth paying attention to whether you're buying, selling, or just tracking Massachusetts' South Shore housing market from the sidelines. In this episode I break down the complete July 2026 Plymouth, MA housing report, the full list of single-family homes sold in Plymouth 02360, to give you the real picture of what's happening from West Plymouth to Manomet, Cedarville, White Horse Beach, Chiltonville, North Plymouth, and The Pinehills.Plymouth stayed a firm seller's market in July 2026, with just 2.45 months of housing inventory and homes selling for 100.7% of list price on average. Ninety-two single-family homes closed in Plymouth this month alone, with a median sale price of $707,500 and a median of $385 per square foot, and RPR's public records data puts the town-wide median sold price even higher at $700,000, up 3.3% month over month. Homes priced right aren't sitting: median days on market for solds was just 23.5, with buyers going under agreement in a median of only 6.5 days, and RPR's own median days-on-market figure of 8 tells the same story.But not every listing is a success story, and that's the real lesson in this episode. Ten Plymouth single-family listings expired in July with an average of 105 days on market, more than four times longer than the homes that actually sold. I dig into why expired listings happen, how pricing and positioning, not "the market," is usually the real culprit, and what sellers can learn from the gap between homes that moved fast and homes that never moved at all.I also spotlight July's standout sales: oceanfront and pond-front trophy properties like 135 Stage Point Road, which sold at full ask for $2,595,000, and 9 Eagle Hill Drive on Great Herring Pond at $1,350,000, alongside new-construction Pinehills homes that blew past asking price entirely, with one selling for 124% of list. I walk through active listing trends too: 48 homes currently on the market with a median list price of $797,000, and exactly where price reductions are showing up most, hint, it's concentrated in the luxury tier above $1.5 million, where cuts averaged nearly 8 to 10 percent, even as the median estimated property value for 02360 climbed 1.7% over the past twelve months to $683,130.Whether you're house hunting in Plymouth, MA, thinking about listing your South Plymouth or Manomet home, or you just want a clear-eyed read on Plymouth County real estate trends for summer 2026, this episode gives you the data, the context, and the neighborhood-level detail that generic market reports skip. As always, I'm bringing you the numbers the way a South Shore Realtor actually reads them, plus what they mean for your next move, whether that's Southie to Sagamore or right here in America's Hometown. #SouthShoreMAHomes #BostonSouthShoreRealEstate #SouthShoreRealtor #jimaldred #kwsignaturepropertiesma #sellingsouthietosagamore #southshorerealestate #pinkdoorproperties #pinkdoorpodcast #02360 #plymouthbrokerealestate #plymouthmarketupdate #RealEstatePodcast #MarketInsightsJim Aldred is a Realtor “Helping buyers and Sellers from Southie To Sagamore”; serving Boston's South Shore and can be contacted via his Links below.https://linktr.ee/SellingSouthieToSagamorewww.KWMASS.com Email me at JimAldredRealtor@yahoo.comcell: 339-987-0382PODCAST INTRO "Werq" Kevin MacLeod (incompetech.com) Licensed under Creative Commons: By Attribution 4.0 License http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/ PODCAST OUTROLURKING SLOTHBy: Alexander Nakarada
