Suddenly it's June in Westport! The weather is getting warmer, the beaches are getting busy, school is ending, college kids are home, graduation parties have begun, weddings are being celebrated and the whole sunny season is ahead of us!

 

Summer also means that the Spring Market has ended and with all the activities going on there are less homes coming on the market right now. The low inventory and high demand mean that it's an excellent time to list your home. And for you buyers, I know the last four years have been a long frustrating journey, but we are looking to see what will happen with the interest rates, so you need to be 100% ready to act when the right house comes up. If you have any questions or need any help please call me.

 

Please follow me on instagram at jillian.klaff.realtor and check out the recent reel of my new listing, 7 Dawn Drive --a brand new luxury home in a beautiful Hunt Club neighborhood. I am very excited about this fabulous home and I would love to give you a private tour.

 

Whether you want to sell, build or purchase a new home, right now is the time to do it. If you want to get the best deal, there is no time to waste so CALL ME NOW!

WESTPORT MARKET TRENDS: 

The real estate market is currently experiencing a low inventory situation, with the Months Supply of Inventory at 3.45. This means that there are fewer homes available for buyers to choose from, leading to increased competition and potentially higher prices.

 

However, there has been a significant decrease in the Months of Inventory over the past year, with a 12-Month Change of -13.53%. This indicates a trend towards a more balanced market, as inventory levels are decreasing and demand remains strong.

 

The Median Days Homes are On the Market is relatively low at 29 days, showing that homes are selling quickly once they are listed. This is likely due to the limited inventory and high demand in the current market.

 

The List to Sold Price Percentage is 103.1%, indicating that homes are selling for above their list price on average. This can be attributed to the competitive market conditions and high buyer demand.

 

Lastly, the Median Sold Price is $1,951,549, reflecting the higher prices that sellers are able to command in the current market. Overall, these metrics suggest a competitive market with limited inventory, strong demand, and rising prices, making it a favorable environment for sellers but potentially challenging for buyers.
