Lynn, MA Housing Market 2026: What Homes Actually Sell For

Lynn closes a lot of homes into a narrow band, which makes its median unusually informative: sales over the last six months land close together, so the citywide number is a real anchor rather than an average of extremes.

The snapshot

  • Closings tracked, last 6 months: 381
  • Median sold price, last 6 months: $610,000
  • Median sold $/sqft, last 6 months: $367
  • Middle half of sales closed between: $499,000 and $750,000

What the numbers say

Resideline tracked 381 closed sales in Lynn over the last six months, with a median closing price of $610,000. That median is the midpoint of what buyers actually paid, not what sellers hoped to get, which is why it moves differently from the asking prices you see on listing sites. The middle half of those sales closed between $499,000 and $750,000. That spread matters more than the headline median: where a specific property sits inside it decides whether the citywide number helps you or misleads you. These are the closings Resideline tracks and may differ from complete county or municipal records. Across the 380 closings with usable living area, the middle half sold between $314 and $428 per square foot.

How long a sale takes here

  • Listed to under contract: a median of 22 days, across 177 Lynn closings Resideline tracked in the last six months
  • Contract to closing: a median of 29 days, across 153 Lynn closings Resideline tracked in the last six months
Both are measured from the closings themselves, not from listing inventory. Each sale is timed using its own listing and contract dates. That is why these counts are smaller than the 381 closings above: a sale is counted here only when we hold both of its dates.

The Lynn angle

Lynn gives you a median that is worth leaning on. Across 381 closings Resideline tracked over the last six months, the median closed sale price was $610,000, and the middle half of sales closed between $499,000 and $750,000. That band is tighter than most markets we track, which raises the predictive weight of $610,000 and moves the real question to whether your subject is a typical example of what closed. When a valuation lands well outside the band, treat it as a claim about the property that needs evidence behind it, not as a rounding difference you can wave through.

From market read to offer price

A tight market makes the next step easier: the citywide anchor sits close to most homes, and a report only has to explain the gap. The decision still comes down to one property and one number: what it is actually worth and what you should pay. Every Resideline report opens with this same market snapshot for the subject's exact ZIP code, then gives you the property's value, the sold comps behind it, and a market rent estimate. Pricing a specific deal? The free ARV calculator and rental property calculator run the numbers in about a minute.

And we show our work. Every estimate is frozen while the home is for sale and graded against the real closing price after it sells. As of August 2026, the public scoreboard showed 3.26% median error across 11,465+ graded closings. See the live accuracy dashboard for the receipts, or read how the Area Market Snapshot works.

Run any Lynn address through Resideline and you will see the local market and the property's value together, in one report.

How many homes sold in Lynn last month?

What is the typical sale price range in Lynn?

What is the typical price per square foot in Lynn?

Among qualifying Lynn closings Resideline tracked over the last six months, the median sold price per square foot was $367, measured across 380 sales with usable living area. Median is used rather than average because outliers distort the mean.

If my Lynn valuation comes in above the upper quartile, is it wrong?

Not necessarily. A quarter of the closings Resideline tracked settled above $750,000, so the upper range is well populated. But the band from $499,000 to $750,000 is tighter than most markets we track, so a number far outside it should be supported by comps that also closed up there.
