from my desk to your door...

Welcome March! March might just be the most exciting month of the year. With spring right around the corner and the extra hour of daylight, that thrilling tingle of spring fever and excitement for what's to come stirs up. It's the perfect time to plan and look forward to great times at home and away. I am really looking forward to the spring and summer seasons and have been having all kinds of fun planning great things to do with family and friends in the warmer months ahead. And even though the time change was a bit of an adjustment, I'm definitely already enjoying the extra hour of daylight!

market stats
 

MARKET TRENDS: 

The current real estate market is showing a strong correlation between several key metrics. The Months Supply of Inventory is at a low 2.58, indicating a high demand for homes compared to the available supply. This low supply is likely contributing to the Median Days Homes are On the Market being just 40 days, as buyers are eager to snatch up properties quickly.

 

Additionally, the 12-Month Change in Months of Inventory has decreased by a significant -19.38%, showing a trend of decreasing inventory levels over the past year. This decrease in supply is likely driving up prices, as evidenced by the List to Sold Price Percentage being at a high 107.1%. Sellers are able to command prices above their listing price, indicating a competitive market.

 

Furthermore, the Median Sold Price of $1,350,000 is reflective of the strong demand and limited supply in the current market. Buyers should be prepared for competitive bidding situations and potentially higher prices due to the low inventory levels. The Median Estimated value is $1,212,910.

 

Overall, these metrics paint a picture of a market that is favorable for sellers due to high demand and low supply. Buyers should be prepared to act quickly and potentially pay above asking price in order to secure a property in this competitive market.

final thoughts

I had the wonderful opportunity to check out histoury.org's Mid-Century home tour in Weston, Westport and Easton this past weekend. It was really fun and very interesting. I recommend checking out their website for more intriguing tours of historic Connecticut homes .

This is an exciting time of new beginnings with new spring routines and activities that we can now enjoy with the warmer weather and extra hour of sunlight. I definitely plan to make the most of that extra hour of sunshine by spending it outdoors and doing the things I love most. I can't wait to get back in my garden. And of course my walks with Rosie can be a little longer now. Maybe I'll even squeeze in some twilight yoga and meditation time outdoors. And I am very much looking forward to watching the gorgeous sunsets down at Compo. Speaking of the beach, another item on my Spring schedule is to check out the Special Sunday Evenings for Locals at La Plague down at Longshore. Now this sounds like the perfect way to end the week with family and friends!

I hope you are excited as I am to jump into the new season and all the fun opportunities that it brings! The onset of Spring offers memories to cherish with friends and loved ones. Happy St. Patrick's Day and Happy Easter!
