Vernon CT Market Report for November 2011
Real estate sales in Vernon CT during November were typical of most of the year, holding steady at 14 homes sold. However, this is just 2/3 of what was sold in November 2010 (22).
The median price also took a big hit this November over last November ($146,250 was the median price for November 2011 compared to a median price of $226,000 for November 2010).
Here is the breakdown by price range:
| Price Range | November 2011 | November 2010 |
| Under $100,000 | 4 | 4 |
| $100,000-$149,999 | 4 | 3 |
| $149,999-$199,999 | 3 | 2 |
| $200,000-$249,999 | 3 | 7 |
| $250,000-$299,999 | - | 4 |
| $300,000-$349,999 | - | 1 |
| $350,000-$399,999 | - | 1 |
| Over $400,000 | - | - |
| Total | 14 | 22 |
It's interesting that all the sales this November were under $250,000, whereas last November there were six in the upper price ranges. When we look at how November compared to the rest of 2011, we can see that the number of houses sold are within a fairly tight range, but the median prices are all over the place. One of the problems with looking at median prices is that it is a reflection of who is buying houses in any given month, and during November, buyers were buying lower-priced homes.
There are also 22 homes under contract (with a median list price of $169,555) and 15 homes under deposit(with a median list price of $149,900), so we should expect similar numbers over the next couple of months. Here is a recap of the year so far in Vernon CT:
| Month | # of Closed Sales | Median Price |
| November | 14 | $146,250 |
| October | 16 | $171,750 |
| September | 12 | $161,500 |
