22. Pembroke Market Update – September 2025: Rising Prices, Tight Inventory, and What It Means for You

The Pembroke real estate market remains hot as we head into fall 2025. With just 1.1 months of inventory on the market, buyers are competing aggressively, and sellers continue to see strong returns. August data shows a median sold price of $660,000, up 6.6% from July, while the median estimated property value hit $674,700—a 7.6% increase compared to last year. Homes are selling fast, with a median of only 8 days on the market, and buyers are paying an average of 101.5% of list price. For sellers, this means well-priced and well-presented homes are still commanding top dollar

There’s one interesting shift: the median list price for active inventory dropped 5.4% month-over-month to $610,000. This suggests sellers are becoming more realistic about pricing as buyers navigate affordability challenges. Still, the overall market momentum is clear—homes are moving quickly, sales volume is steady, and competitive offers remain the norm.

Long-term appreciation continues to favor homeowners. Over the past three years, Pembroke property values are up more than 12%, and over the past two years, nearly 15%. This steady growth highlights the resilience of the South Shore housing market even as listing prices fluctuate month to month. Recent closings illustrate the diversity of activity: from a three-bedroom Cape selling at $450,000 to a four-bedroom colonial closing just under $1.2 million. Pending sales show demand across all brackets, from the mid-$500Ks up through the upper-$900Ks

For buyers, speed and preparation are key. With homes selling in little more than a week, having financing in order and working closely with a knowledgeable agent can make the difference in multiple-offer situations. For sellers, this market is still very much in your favor—but overpricing risks longer days on market. Strategic pricing paired with strong marketing can generate multiple offers and maximize your return.

As we move into the fall season, we may see a modest increase in inventory, giving buyers more options. Yet, with such low baseline supply and high demand, Pembroke is expected to stay firmly in seller’s market territory through the rest of 2025.
