Pretty active January and hopefully a sign of a promising Spring Connecticut Real Estate Market.

February too has come and gone and even thugh Valentine's has past the Real Estate market in Prospect, Ct still hasn't been very "Loving". We had just One CLosing in Prospect this month. It was 91 Coachlight Circle.

It Originally listed 6/18/07 at $384,900. It sold 2/7/08 at $360,000. It was a 3 Bedroom, 2.5 Bath Colonial built in 99'. A nice house, and seemed like it sold at a great price. It was on the market for a long time however.

We are now 1/6 of the way through the year and I am seeing some signs of life for the Spring Market.

Well January has come and gone already and there were a total of Two (2) closed homes this month in Prospect Connecticut.

They were located at 4 Overlook Court and 54 Plank Road.

4 Overlook Court originally listed 10/31/07 at $434,900 and closed 01/15/08 at just $377,000.

It was a 4 Bedroom, 2.5 bath Colonial.

54 Plank Road originally listed 11/12/07 at $449,900 and closed 01/15/08 at $415,000.

It is a 4 bedroom 3 bath Colonial.

That was it for January, both sold signifigantly below the origianl list but were not on the market very long.
