What the sales history says · 14 years of sales

Bidding wars in Concord are rarer than before the pandemic, and more homes are for sale

We read every month of Concord’s home sales since 2012 so you don’t have to. Each figure covers 12 months, because a single month in a town is too few sales to mean much. Latest: the year to May 2026, 1,035 sales.

If you’re buying in Concord

  • Shop in September. It brings about 137 new listings a month, close to the busiest month, with fewer bidding wars (58% over asking).

  • Bid near asking. Buyers paid 100.4% of the list price on average; 47% paid over.
  • You’ll usually have time. Only 40% of homes go under contract within two weeks; the typical one takes 23 days.
