BOSTON — Single-family home sales in Massachusetts plummeted last month to the lowest November total in eight years while prices climbed to a new high, according to the latest report from The Warren Group.Statistics for MetroWest communities mirrored that of the state.Across Massachusetts, there were 3,806 sales of single-family homes in November, reflecting a 29.4% drop from the same month a year ago and a 34.7% decline from two years ago, The Warren Group said in a report published Wednesday.That's the lowest November total since 2014, raising the stakes in a housing debate that lawmakers have been reluctant to dive into despite many families feeling financially burdened or locked out of the market.
