ptownie Real Estate Update June 2025

Welcome back!

I’d like to offer some personal perspective on the Truro and Provincetown real estate markets in these uncertain times. You’ll find the full analytics below in the market recap—and, as always, I trust you smart folks to interpret the numbers through the lens of your own interests. The data doesn’t tell a clear or consistent story across the board, so you’ll need to dig into the specifics of what you’re looking at (for example, if you’re focused on a Truro condo, like I am).

One thing that is consistent: the Outer Cape market—especially Provincetown—remains resilient and less reactive to broader national trends.

Here’s what I’m sensing in 2025 so far:
Following the election and the realization that interest rates weren’t dropping, January and February saw strong activity. But March brought renewed uncertainty, and we started to see a bit of hesitation from buyers. It’s a reminder that in times like these, being strategic is more important than ever. Always work with a LOCAL agent who has deep experience and long-term knowledge of the market.

It’s clear that a shift is underway. For the first time in years, the trend appears to be tilting more in favor of buyers.

That’s enough from me—but if you’d like a deeper perspective or want to talk more specifically about where I think the market is headed, please reach out. There’s no crystal ball, but with the combined experience of The Holmes Group, we can help you navigate these unusual times smartly and strategically.

494 Shore Road Provincetown, MA

If you are looking to be on the water and looking for good value, I personally love (and live on Beach Point).  The views of the Bay as well as Pilgrim Lake make this location special.  The advantage is being on the beach and also having some privacy and quiet……but just minutes into Provincetown.

Here’s how much you need to earn to buy a house, or rent, in each Cape Cod town

Cape Cod residents are in a housing logjam. Aspiring homeowners who grew up on Cape Cod can’t afford a house — or are faced with a fixer-upper without the spare money for a renovation — and older residents are stuck in houses they’ve outgrown. Keep Reading…

Mortgage rates and demand are stuck in a holding pattern

Economic uncertainty at home or military conflicts overseas — each taken alone — would normally have a significant effect on the bond market. But now, even together, they have done little to move mortgage rates. Keep Reading…
