Southington, CT Market Report: 2011 in Review and Going Forward

2011 was a slow year for home sellers in Southington, CT . 397 homes in Southington, CT sold in 2011 at an average price of $249,302, down slightly from 2010.

Should the trend continue, just 10% of current market inventory of 340 homes in Southington is expected to sell in any given month. Another telling figure is the amount of homes that expired in 2011. An expired home is a home that goes on market, but ultimately just does not sell at. In 2011, 207 homes in Southington expired unsold – leaving the odds of successfully selling at just 66%.

What does that mean to you as a Southington, CT home seller? If you are considering going on market, you will have to be very realistic about the value of your home if you wish to successfully sell. You have a lot of competition and just a 66% shot at selling your home at all. How do you make it happen in this market? With an aggressive marketing plan, and most importantly – THE RIGHT PRICE.

Short sales and foreclosures in Southington, CT in 2011: Out of all sold homes in 2011 4% were short sales and 8% were bank owned (foreclosed). 10% of all currently listed homes are short sales, while 3% of homes are bank owned – making distressed homes 13% of the current inventory in Southington, CT.

Don't You Think the Water is a Little Cold?

Don't You Think the Water is a Little Cold?

Sprink Lake

While showing properties earlier today, I passed by a pond that should have been well frozen over by now. We’ve had such a mild winter so far that, anyone thinking of ice fishing has had to wait or just go further north. This time last year we were into such a deep freeze that those geese would have been on top of feet of snow atop an ice capped lake.

Spring Lake Condos Southington CT

The geese in the middle of the water don’t seem to mind a bit and with no ice anywhere on the pond they have free wadding, but I’ll bet there webs are chilled.
