About Wilton Connecticut

Michelle                      Genovesi: Real Estate Agent in Westport, CT
ee why Wilton offers something for just about everyone...the wonderful school system for young families and the amenities and resources that appeal to a variety of tastes. Nestled in the Norwalk Valley, west of the town of Weston and only an hour from Grand Central, you'll find many commuters calling it home. Population approx. 17,333
The transformation from a small farming town to a suburban residential community has been carefully controlled by zoning and through the preservation of the town's older colonels. The two acre zoning is conducive to privacy and while the town has all the amenities for today's lifestyle, it also values it antiquity. That may be why, in April 1995, Connecticut Magazine named Wilton the top overall town in its size group.

Wilton Real Estate Trends

April 2008

The Good News is that Wilton Housing inventory is even with last year. The Bad News is that this continues a 4 year slide in homes sales in the Town of Wilton. Even while many surrounding towns in Fairfield County have performed well, Wilton has slumped. Not that the past few years have been great for the county but "up and down" looks really good compared to "down and down and down".....so we continue to watch and wait for the big Wilton turnaround.

Wilton Home Sales and Real Estate Update - February 2008

Mike Tetreau - Sales Vice President ABR, CRS, GRI : Real Estate Agent in Fairfield, CT

Wilton Real Estate and Home Sales Update

February 2008

Wilton Home Sales continue to struggle. This year is starting off slower in unit sales than the prior two years. Keep in mind that the last two years were not great performances by any measure. The sliver of hope is that prices seem to be showing some strength. Again we are left waiting for the Fed Reserve to make it decision on interest rates and the next 2-3 months to see which way the trend moves --- up or back down....

The lowest priced home so far was 32 West Church - a 3 Bedroom Colonial with 1,744 SF on .4 Acres built in 1860. It sold for $365,000. The highest priced home was 378 Nod Hill - a 5 Bedroom Colonial on 4.21 Acres built in 1999. It sold for $2,940,000.

Wilton CT Real Estate - Janaury 2008 Update

Mike Tetreau - Sales Vice President ABR, CRS, GRI : Real Estate Agent in Fairfield, CT

Wilton Real Estate and Home Values - January 2008 Update

The Wilton Real Estate market continues its trend of slow starts to the year. 2006 and 2007 were definitely "off" years for the local housing market. This year seems to be following that trend with only 10 sales in January.

While it is still too soon to project how the year will finish, the next two months become crucial. Wilton has been suffering from a lack of unit sales - or a lack of buyers in the market. This makes real estate investments less liquid and puts downward pressure on prices.

The top sale so far this year is $2,940,000 spent on 378 Nod Hill Road for a 7,000SF home on 4+ acres.
