What the data says for an Ipswich seller. Ipswich moved 17 percent over five years, one of the softer gains in the group. Sale-to-list held above 100 percent every year, meaning the market itself was healthy, but appreciation slowed after 2023. Presentation and preparation now matter more than they did in 2022.

Year-over-year median sale price change from 2024 to 2025 in Ipswich was -2.5%. Median price per square foot reached $408. Sale-to-list ratio held at 100%.
