Do You Know What Your House Is Worth in Today’s Market?

Your Home Value Is the Number That Matters Most

Home values have risen significantly over the past five years. So what’s the most important number?

It’s not:

  • Your mortgage rate
  • The price you originally paid
  • It’s the value your home would command if you sold today

Many homeowners are surprised to learn how much equity they’ve built. Some are choosing to leverage that equity to make a move, downsize, or relocate closer to family.

If you’re curious about your home’s current value, let’s connect for a confidential, no-pressure valuation. Your next opportunity may be closer than you realize.

Methodology

TownRatings™ is a proprietary model developed by Team Coyle to provide homebuyers and sellers with a relative rating (assessment) of a town’s key characteristics, benchmarked against other Greater Boston towns. Ratings are based on publicly available data and Team Coyle’s on-the-ground expertise and are intended as a general guide only. Please consult a licensed real estate professional before making any real estate decisions. Ratings are current as of October 4, 2025.

RATING CATEGORIES

  • Quality of Schools: Based on Massachusetts Department of Elementary and Secondary Education (DESE) 2024 data, emphasizing Grade 10 MCAS English Language Arts and Mathematics proficiency rates and 4-year high school graduation rates. Together, these measures provide a snapshot of academic achievement and long-term outcomes.
    Scale: Above Average · Average · Below Average
  • Commute to Boston: Assesses commuting ease using travel time, distance, and in-town transit access. For towns with MBTA rail or subway service, commute times are measured to the line’s natural Boston endpoint (e.g., North Station, South Station, or Back Bay). For towns without in-town service, commute times are measured by car to Back Bay as the default reference point.
    Scale: Easy · Moderate · Challenging
  • Shopping & Dining: Reflects the density and variety of retail and restaurant options within a town or in adjacent hubs.
    Scale: Excellent · Good · Limited
  • Lifestyle: A general description a town's overall character (e.g., Upscale, Rural, Historic, Suburban, Urban/Vibrant).
  • Est. Annual Tax per $1M: The town’s residential property tax rate applied to $1,000,000 of value (as of the report date) for easy comparison.

HOW RATINGS ARE DERIVED

Ratings are determined using a blend of publicly reported data (e.g., DESE reports, MBTA schedules, municipal tax rates, business directories), mapping and transportation tools, and qualitative insights from Team Coyle agents active in these markets.
