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

If you invest in or around Lynn, the number that matters is what homes actually close for, not what sellers are asking. Here is what Lynn sale prices look like right now, built from the closings Resideline tracked over the last six months, as of September 2026.

The snapshot

  • Closings tracked, last 6 months: 385
  • Median sold price, last 6 months: $605,000
  • Median sold $/sqft, last 6 months: $368
  • Middle half of sales closed between: $489,250 and $750,000

What the numbers say

Resideline tracked 385 closed sales in Lynn over the last six months, with a median closing price of $605,000. 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 $489,250 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 384 closings with usable living area, the middle half sold between $315 and $431 per square foot.

Medians hide the shape of a market.

How long a sale takes here

  • Listed to under contract: a median of 22 days, across 193 Lynn closings Resideline tracked in the last six months
  • Contract to closing: a median of 28 days, across 169 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 385 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 385 closings Resideline tracked over the last six months, the median closed sale price was $605,000, and the middle half of sales closed between $489,250 and $750,000. 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 market read is the backdrop. 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. 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.
