Weymouth Sellers Are Getting 4% Over Asking While the Rest of Massachusetts Settles for List Price

There is one number in the August 2026 Weymouth data that separates this town from every other market we track, and it has nothing to do with price levels or sales counts.

Weymouth homes sold for 104.01% of their asking price last month.

For context, Massachusetts as a whole came in at 100.17%. Plymouth managed 99.78%. Hull actually went the other way at 96.94%. On a $675,000 Weymouth list price, that 104% means the seller walked away with roughly $27,000 more than they asked for. And this is not a one-month spike — Weymouth cleared 105.05% in July, 103.04% in June, and has beaten the statewide ratio in every one of the last eighteen months without exception.

Whatever is happening in Weymouth, buyers are still fighting over it.

Weymouth is the tightest market in this report

Months of inventory in Weymouth stands at 0.84. That is the lowest figure of any of the ten towns covered here, and roughly half the Massachusetts figure of 1.66.

Put plainly: at the current pace of sales, Weymouth would run completely out of homes to sell in about twenty-five days.

That scarcity has actually loosened a little from a year ago — Weymouth was at an almost absurd 0.50 months in August 2025 — and active listings are up 61.9%, from 21 homes to 34. But going from “nothing at all” to “barely anything” does not change the fundamental dynamic. When 36 homes sell in a month and only 34 are listed, buyers do not get to be picky, and they do not get to lowball.

What buyers are actually paying

The average Weymouth single-family sold for $690,976 in August 2026, up 1.3% from $681,856 a year earlier. That is modest, and it undersells what has happened over the year as a whole.

Across January through August, the weighted average Weymouth sale price came in at $707,156, against $677,787 for the same eight months of 2025 — a 4.3% gain, and one of the cleaner year-over-year price comparisons in this report since Weymouth is one of only two towns with complete data for both periods.

The March 2026 reading of $773,034 was an outlier driven by a handful of high-end sales. Strip that out and Weymouth has been remarkably consistent, oscillating in a band between roughly $690,000 and $725,000 all year.

The volume picture is mixed

Weymouth sold 36 homes in August 2026 against 46 in August 2025 — a 21.7% decline, and the softest August in this window.

But that number is misleading on its own. June 2026 delivered 51 sales, Weymouth’s best month of the year and better than June 2025’s 44. July came in at 49 against 48. The town had a genuinely strong early summer and then hit a wall in August.

Over the full January-through-August stretch, Weymouth closed 238 sales against 263 in 2025, a 9.5% decline. That is softer than last year but far healthier than what Quincy is seeing next door, where volume is down 25.5%.

Speed is the other Weymouth advantage

Homes that closed in Weymouth in August had been on the market an average of 22 days. The Massachusetts average is 39. Weymouth homes sell in roughly half the time of the typical Massachusetts house.

That figure has actually improved year over year, down from 30 days in August 2025, which puts Weymouth in a small group of markets moving faster than they were a year ago while the state slows.

The February 2026 reading of 83 days is worth flagging as the exception — a genuinely rough winter month — but Weymouth spent April through August in a range of 21 to 35 days. This is a market that clears.

Selling in Weymouth right now

If you have a clean, updated, correctly-priced Weymouth home, list it. Twenty-two days, 104% of asking, and 34 competitors in the entire town — the retail market is going to treat you well, and we would tell you the same thing if you called us.

Where the retail path breaks down is condition. Weymouth’s housing stock skews older — a lot of postwar capes and ranches through Weymouth Landing, North Weymouth and Lovell’s Corner that have not been substantially touched in thirty years. Getting one of those to the standard where it captures the 104% premium means kitchens, baths, electrical, sometimes a roof. That is real money and a real timeline, and if you are selling because of a divorce, a job relocation, an estate, or a mortgage you are behind on, you do not have a spare six months and $60,000 to invest first.

That is the gap Bluefin Property Buyers fills. We buy Weymouth houses for cash, as-is, with no repairs, no cleaning, no commission and no showings. You choose the closing date — a week from now or three months from now, whatever works around your life.

If you want to know what your house is worth to a cash buyer before you commit to the renovation route, get an offer on your Weymouth home here. It costs nothing and there is no obligation. We also buy in Quincy if you own property in both towns.

Take the easy way out.
