Boston Property Report — 2026-08-16

26 corridor land & home listings across all seven towns (19 active, 7 pending; Norwood MA zero active, Rehoboth MA deepest at 10), 11 RI beach-area weekly-rental buy candidates (several flagged on geography or community rules) with 2 named no-rental communities excluded and 1 more flagged unverified, and 29 verified duplexes (11 MA corridor, 18 RI; Stoughton MA, Sharon MA, Jamestown RI and Bonnet Shores RI at zero confirmed); cheapest active parcel is 156 Rocky Hill Rd, Rehoboth MA at $229,000 (2.0 ac, perc-tested), 32 Thayer Farm Rd, Attleboro MA shows at $739,000 this run, Norwood Hospital remains closed with no ER (shell ~75% complete, MGB talks broke down over price, two other operators in talks under the eminent-domain law) so the 15-minute hospital rule still fails Canton/Stoughton/Sharon/Norwood MA, Narragansett RI's STR permit-cap ordinance remains enjoined and unenforced, and Homes.com/LandSearch were the primary accessible sources with Zillow/Redfin gated (an estimated 10–20% of inventory unconfirmed).
Section 1 criteria: 0.75–5.0 acres inclusive; vacant/buildable land, teardown-grade structures, or existing single-family homes; public water AND sewer at street preferred (recorded, never a drop reason); ≤10 min to a Providence/Stoughton line station; ≤15 min hospital; ≤30 min highly rated library; ≤30 min Planet Fitness. Towns: Canton, Stoughton, Sharon, Norwood, Mansfield, Attleboro, Rehoboth (MA). Rehoboth MA fails the 10-minute rail rule (~18–22 min) and is included flagged. The manufactured-home requirement is dropped.
Section 2 criteria: properties to BUY and offer as weekly rentals — condos, duplexes, mobile/manufactured homes, small cottages — near southern-RI beaches and within ~15 min of a Providence/Stoughton line station, in established weekly-rental areas.
Section 3 criteria: two-unit duplexes with private entrances anywhere in the combined Section 1 + 2 footprint plus Barrington RI and Warren RI; no acreage/price caps, no minimum room count.
All drive times are estimates. Each run is a fresh search — no day-over-day deltas.

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

Hospital criterion note: Norwood Hospital remains closed (no ER; rebuild shell ~75% complete; Mass General Brigham talks broke down over price and two other operators remain in talks under the August 2026 eminent-domain law — WBUR). Nearest working ERs for Canton/Stoughton/Sharon/Norwood MA are Good Samaritan (Brockton MA), BID-Milton MA or BID-Needham MA at an estimated 15–30 min, so the 15-minute hospital rule effectively fails the northern corridor and favors the Attleboro MA / Mansfield MA end near Sturdy Memorial.
