Dedham Picked as One of the 'Hottest' Towns in Real Estate

The town of Dedham made the McGeough Lamacchia Realty's list of the 25 Hottest Towns in Massachusetts.

McGeough Lamacchia Realty every quarter gathers data about home sales in Massachusetts in order to determine the "hottest towns" in real estate.  For the second quarter Dedham made the top 25 list.

The town of Dedham was listed at #22 because of the large increase of home sales in the area.

Internet Marketing Coordinator Marguerite McGrail wasn't surprised to see that Dedham made the list because the town has a convenient commute, via car or train, to Boston along with other factors.

"It’s got great shopping, entertainment, and restaurants with Legacy Place, it has several outdoor parks including Wilson Mountain Reservation," McGrail said. "And it has great schools including Dedham High School, which ranked 42nd in Massachusetts by U.S. News and World Report this year."

McGrail also mentioned how the homes are reasonable priced in comparison to other towns around Boston.

In the realty's second quarter the median price for a home in Dedham was $395,000.
