Greetings!

 

 

This month's sales activity is up from last month in Westport, Fairfield and Norwalk; Wilton was at the same level and Weston was down by one unit.  March saw good buyer traffic which continues to follow through into this month.  The Spring market is buzzing. 

The lending environment remains favorable for the buyers, rates are still at historic lows and the number of sales have increased.  In addition to indicating an improved market,  it gives the appraisers a better opportunity to represent fair value. 

We continue to see in some price categories very lean inventories.  Buyers are hoping to see new inventory in the next couple of weeks.  Please see our Market Action Reports for more details about market activity.  

A good way to get a sense of the market is to visit one of the Coldwell Banker open housesthere are 30 in our towns the next two weeks, for homes ranging from $549,000 to $2,290,000.

  

We are introducing a new section to the Chronicle this month. We have selected articles that we hope will be of interest to you on a variety of home and real estate related topics. 

 

Emilie Roy, our French Chef contributor, has created a Spring recipe for us, be sure to check it out.  

 

As always we are here for you to answer any questions or concerns, please do not hesitate to reach out.

A new study by economists at the University of California, Berkeley, and Oregon State University suggests that the U.S. housing crisis that started in 2007 and eventually led to a worldwide financial crisis was triggered by rapidly rising gas prices.
