- Is it a buyer's or seller's market in Newton?
- Newton currently has about 4.6 months of inventory — 125 active listings against a recent pace of roughly 27.2 sales a month. As a rule of thumb the industry reads under six months as favouring sellers and over six as favouring buyers, but that is a guideline, not a verdict on any one house.
