Happy 4th of July! The local markets continued with strong sales and accepted offers in both Downtown Fairfield and Greens Farms Westport during the last two weeks of June. The average days on market until the new listings accepted an offer was longer though, with 41 days in Downtown Fairfield and 37 days in Greens Farms compared to 17 and 20 in the first two weeks of June. Nearly all of the sales closed at or above the asking price.

If you are like many others who want to sell but are still on the fence, July offers an excellent window of time to make your move. Interest rates and inventory are still low, and buyer demand is still strong. Rates are expected to creep up toward the end of the summer, and August may be a big vacation month as usual, but especially now that most of us are vaccinated and everyone’s craving a get-away! You are right to arm yourself with an expert guide to help you put your strategy in place and ensure you reach your goal! Call me today to discuss your plans, (203) 912-4440.

What has sold in these two hot spots? Where are the accepted offers during the second half of May?

More homes have been coming on the market and some are still getting frenzied offers. However, agents are seeing fallout after some bidding wars due to buyer regrets as well as some resistance to the high prices from buyers who are choosing to wait on the sidelines.

If you are going to sell now, I recommend you price your house to match recent sales and not over-shoot so that you attract the current buyers and don’t risk turning them away. Check out the scoop below!
