DelRose is synonymous with real estate in Greater Boston

This business exists because of a home.

In the early 1950s, my grandfather Connie used the GI Bill to purchase a single family ranch in West Watertown. That one decision changed the trajectory of an entire family. It created wealth. It created stability. And it set in motion nearly five decades of real estate work that still carries the DelRose name today.

"There's always another house. But there's only one right outcome for your family. My job is to help you get there."

Absorption Rate by Town and Property Type

Absorption rate is the ratio of homes sold to total available listings. A rate of 0.20 reflects a balanced market where buyers and sellers can negotiate on equal footing. Above 0.20 favors sellers. Below 0.20 favors buyers. Above 0.25 signals a strong seller's market. Below 0.18 signals a strong buyer's market. Neither condition is inherently good or bad. Understanding where the market sits helps both buyers and sellers make clear-eyed decisions.

Below 0.18: buyer's market
0.18 to 0.22: balanced
Above 0.22: seller's market

Absorption rate equals closed sales divided by total active listings. Data sourced from MLSPIN and updated quarterly. Markets vary by property type and price range within each town.

All market statistics sourced from MLSPIN. Figures represent trailing 90-day period and are updated quarterly. Contact Mike for current conditions specific to your property type and search criteria.
