Current Mortgage Rate Context

Market-level mortgage rate comparison for this area:

Current 30-year fixed mortgage rates in Roxbury, MA, are averaging approximately 6.6% as of June 2026, reflecting a period of elevated borrowing costs for property owners in this market.

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 signal is the $427,500 median sold price, which, combined with a noted down price year-over-year trend, indicates recent transactions are settling at materially lower price points than some asking levels.
  2. The market shows liquidity friction: the 254 median days on market suggests slower sales velocity, which may indicate buyers are taking longer to transact and sellers face extended marketing periods.
  3. There is a wide gap between the $899,000 median listing price and the $427,500 median sold price, which appears to reflect pricing friction and seller expectation vs. realized transaction price divergence rather than balanced trade-through.
  4. Rental fundamentals remain supportive: the $3,700 median market rent with an up rent year-over-year trend suggests stable rental demand, while elevated borrowing costs (approximately 6.6% on 30-year fixed mortgages and elevated interest rate pressure) may continue to pressure buyer affordability and extend time to sale.
