Current Mortgage Rate Context

Market-level mortgage rate comparison for this area:

Current 30-year fixed mortgage rates in Pembroke, MA are approximately 6.3% compared to the 5.9% average observed during February 2026, reflecting a market-wide increase in borrowing costs.

Note: Interest rate comparisons provide market context. The existing "Interest Rate Pressure" metric above shows the qualitative market impact.


Key Findings

  1. The primary market indicator is the median sold price of 609,000, which points to realized transaction value and suggests recent sales are tracking above the median listing price of 534,900; this disparity may indicate seller-price strength and pricing friction between asking and cleared transactions.

  2. Liquidity appears slower: the median days on market is 240, which, when combined with a relatively constrained active supply in the analyzed sample, suggests slower sales velocity and possible elongated time-to-close for priced-to-market listings.

  3. On unit economics, the median price per square foot is 249 while the median market rent is 2,617; with price year-over-year trend noted as up and rent year-over-year trend noted as up, these signals collectively indicate persistent demand-side support even as interest rate pressure is elevated.

  4. Strategic implication for participants: lenders and buyers must account for financing headwinds—Current 30-year fixed mortgage rates in Pembroke, MA are approximately 6.3% compared to the 5.9% average observed during February 2026—while sellers can consider disciplined pricing given the market temperature is described as hot and the median sold price reflects realized market strength.

Current Mortgage Rate Context

Market-level mortgage rate comparison for this area:

Current 30-year fixed mortgage rates in Pembroke, MA are approximately 6.3% compared to the 5.9% average observed during February 2026, reflecting a market-wide increase in borrowing costs.

Note: Interest rate comparisons provide market context. The existing "Interest Rate Pressure" metric above shows the qualitative market impact.


Key Findings

  1. The neighborhood's median sold price is 509,900, which serves as the primary indicator of current market value and anchors pricing expectations for recent transactions in Pembroke, MA.

  2. Despite a hot market temperature and prices trending up, the long median days on market of 325 suggests slower sales velocity and potential pricing friction between asking and achieved sale levels.

  3. The market shows strong per-unit pricing with a median price per square foot of 376 and rents also trending up with a median market rent of 2,617, indicating continued demand support for both owner-occupied and condominium segments.

  4. Borrowing cost pressure is a material headwind: interest rate pressure is characterized as elevated, and current mortgage conditions note that "Current 30-year fixed mortgage rates in Pembroke, MA are approximately 6.3% compared to the 5.9% average observed during February 2026," which may temper buyer capacity and extend time-to-contract despite upward price trends.
