Boston Property Report — 2026-08-14

25 corridor land & home listings across all seven towns (18 active, 7 pending), 9 RI beach-area weekly-rental buy candidates (Jamestown RI and Warwick RI entries flagged on price/geography) with 3 named no-rental cottage colonies excluded, and 27 verified duplexes (14 MA corridor, 13 RI; Sharon MA and Jamestown RI confirmed zero); cheapest active parcel is 145 Winthrop St, Rehoboth MA at $225,000 (approved septic design), strongest all-round parcel remains 32 Thayer Farm Rd, Attleboro MA at $699,000 after its $40,000 cut, and Norwood Hospital remains closed with no ER (eminent-domain takeover law signed 2026-08-07, two operators in talks) so the 15-minute hospital rule still fails Canton/Stoughton/Sharon/Norwood MA.
Criteria.

Section 1 — Corridor Land & Homes (0.75–5.0 acres)

Hospital rule caveat: Norwood Hospital is still closed with no functioning ER (flooded 2020; rebuild abandoned in the Steward bankruptcy). On 2026-08-07 Gov. Healey signed the law authorizing eminent-domain seizure of the site, and roughly two operators remain in takeover talks (per Rep. Lynch), but no reopening date is set. Nearest working ERs for the Canton/Stoughton/Sharon/Norwood MA cluster are BMC–South (Brockton MA) and BID–Milton (Milton MA), an estimated 15–25 min — the ≤15-min hospital rule still fails for that cluster. Attleboro MA (Sturdy Memorial, ~5–12 min est.) and Rehoboth MA (Sturdy, ~10–15 min est.) pass.
