Boston Property Report — 2026-08-23

26 corridor land & home listings across six of seven in-scope towns (17 active, 9 pending; Rehoboth MA deepest overall at 10, Sharon MA deepest on actives among the core towns at 4, Norwood MA zero active with a single pending entry, North Attleboro MA a cross-verified zero), 7 RI beach-area weekly-rental buy candidates (2 named no-rental Carpenter-family cottage communities checked and excluded where encountered; a 55+ manufactured-home community in central Warwick flagged as not actually near a beach), and 44 duplex/two-family entries captured this run — 35 confirmed genuine two-unit duplexes (3 MA corridor cluster A, 9 MA corridor cluster B, 23 RI) plus 6 larger multi-family, oversized, or status-conflicted entries carried as context. The cheapest active buildable parcel is 156 Rocky Hill Rd, Rehoboth MA at $229,000; 32 Thayer Farm Rd, Attleboro MA remains pending at $699,000. Rehoboth MA is flagged corridor-wide at an estimated 18–22 minutes to the nearest Providence/Stoughton line station, failing the 10-minute rail rule but included per exception. Norwood Hospital remains closed with no ER. Narragansett RI's 2024 STR permit-cap ordinance remains under an unresolved court injunction (last confirmed news dated through 2025 — no ruling found this run either) and the statewide 5% RI whole-home short-term-rental tax is confirmed still in effect since 2026-01-01.
Criteria (unchanged from prior runs): Each run is a fresh search — no day-over-day deltas are tracked.

North Attleboro MA

Zero qualifying inventory. LandSearch's own summary stat for North Attleboro acreage reads 0 across all land/residential-land/houses-with-land pages — individual results surfaced under a North Attleboro radius search actually sit in neighboring towns (Rehoboth, Dighton, Cumberland RI, Lincoln RI, Smithfield RI). Homes.com and general search turned up only sub-0.5-acre in-town lots (16 Teaberry Ln – 0.46 ac; 10 Veterans Way – 0.46 ac; a Longview Dr half-acre lot), all below the 0.75-ac floor. Cross-verified zero for the 0.75–5.0 ac band this run.

STR Rules by Town

TownStatus
Narragansett RI2024 permit-cap ordinance (declining 1,100→1,000→900 by 2026, 7-night minimum, event bans) remains under an unresolved court injunction as of this run — not currently enforced. No source newer than 2025 found confirming a ruling; status inferred as still-frozen.
North Kingstown RINo STR registration system in place; council interest in future oversight only.
Warwick RIOrdinance since Feb 2023: STR permitted in residential/mixed-use zones only; $150 application + $100/bedroom annual permit (capped $500/yr); $500K liability insurance required; local contact mandated.
South Kingstown/Wakefield RISTR registry adopted April 2024: $300/unit fee (<30-day stays), $50/unit (30+ days, capped $1,000/owner). Actively enforced.
Jamestown RIRegistration required since Aug 2023: $350/yr, building + fire marshal inspections, occupancy capped at 2/bedroom+2, local RI-resident contact with 2-hr response required.
Bonnet Shores / Saunderstown RINo town-specific ordinance — fall under parent town rules (Narragansett / North Kingstown respectively).

Statewide 5% RI whole-home STR tax: confirmed still in effect, effective 2026-01-01, on top of the existing 5% state hotel tax (separate, not stacked on room rentals) and a local hotel tax that doubled 1%→2% — combined STR tax burden in RI now up to 14%.
