Dear Neighbor,
It's time to look at the past year to see what happened to the upper end market. The number of sold properties is up 27% and the average sales price is slightly up from last year. The average selling period of days on the market (DOM) is slightly longer by 2 weeks. All in all the market is slowly improving even if you were one of the 120 upper end properties that did not sell.

Here's some perspective over the last 12 years for the upper end market in the 11 towns we serve in Northwest Connecticut: *
