MARCH 2025

from my desk to your door...

Hurrah! We can finally say goodbye to dreary January and February! The cabin fever has most definitely hit and I am really looking forward to the upcoming spring season. I am especially excited that Daylight Savings has come. I love having the extra sunlight at the end of the day for my walks with Rosie. And my garden is finally out from under all the snow and is patiently waiting for my attention. I can't wait!

 

I also can't wait for the spring market to arrive in full. This time of year typically brings out more sellers so we shall see what happens. Currently, Inventory in our area is very low so buyers need to act quickly and aggressively.

 

 

If you are thinking of buying, I can help you get pre approved,, determine what you really want in a new home and educate you on our market so that when the right home presents itself you are ready to act decisively.

 

Please don't hesitate to reach out to me anytime. I would love to help you get your house in order if you are thinking of selling, buying, or building. Right now is the time to make a move, if you want to get the best deal! There is no time to waste so CALL ME NOW! And follow me at jillian.klaff.realtor on instagram for my latest listings and real estate tips.

WESTPORT MARKET TRENDS:

Hello Buyers and Sellers! Let's dive into the exciting world of real estate metrics and see how they all tie together.

 

First up, we have the Months Supply of Inventory sitting at 2.23. This number tells us how long it would take for all the current homes on the market to sell at the current rate of sales. A lower number indicates a seller's market, meaning there's high demand and limited supply.

 

Now, let's talk about the Median Days Homes are On the Market, which is 31. This tells us how long it typically takes for a home to sell once it's listed. A lower number indicates a fast-moving market, where homes are snatched up quickly.

Next, we have the 12-Month Change in Months of Inventory, which is at a whopping -36.83%. This means that the market has become even tighter over the past year, with inventory decreasing significantly.

Moving on to the Sold to List Price Percentage, which is an impressive 99%. This means that homes are typically selling for almost the full asking price, showing strong buyer interest and competition.

And last but not least, we have the Median Sold Price of $1,773,500. This gives us an idea of the average price at which homes are selling in the market. A higher median price indicates a higher-end market with luxury properties.

 

So, what does all this mean for you as a Buyer or Seller? Well, with low inventory, high demand, quick sales, and homes selling close to asking price, it's a competitive market out there. Sellers may see quick sales and strong offers, while Buyers may need to act fast and be prepared to make strong offers to secure their dream home.

 

Overall, these metrics paint a picture of a hot real estate market with high demand and limited supply. Whether you're looking to buy or sell, it's important to stay informed and work with a knowledgeable real estate agent to navigate the market successfully. Happy house hunting!
