Boston, Jan. 13, 2015 – Single-family home sales in the Nutmeg State increased slightly in November, posting a gain of 0.4 percent, according to the latest report by The Warren Group, publisher of The Commercial Record.
A total of 2,036 single-family homes sold in Connecticut during the month of November, a small increase from the 2,027 sold in November 2013. This marked the third consecutive month of sales increases. Year-to-date, sales were down by 0.5 percent with 23,598 sales, compared with 23,707 during the same period a year ago.
The median price of a single-family home fell 1.6 percent to $238,100 in November, down from $242,000 a year earlier. November marked the ninth consecutive month that sales prices have decreased year-over-year. Year-to-date, the median price for homes sold was $252,000, falling 3.1 percent from $260,000 in the same timeframe last year.
“The Connecticut market for single-family homes is steady, but shows virtually no growth over the levels achieved in 2013,” said The Warren Group CEO, Timothy M. Warren Jr. “After gains in sales volume of 15 percent in 2012 and another 6.0 percent in 2013, we are stuck on a plateau this year.”
