Kent CT Real Estate Market Report, What's selling in Kent?

Kent CT Real EstateAre homes selling in Kent, CT? The real estate market is admittedly slow in Kent, although not surprising in this current real estate market. It is a buyers market in Kent, with the current listings compared to the sales, it will take 21.5 months to sell the current homes that are for sale. This is called the market absorption rate. (A sellers market is anything under 6 months, 6 months is a balanced market, and over 6 months is a buyers market.)

Currently in Kent, CT there are 43 active single family homes for sale. One of these homes is "under deposit", not yet under contract. Typically this period of time can take from 2-4 weeks before it moves from under deposit to pending sale. The buyer is doing inspections and the sellers attorney is drawing up the contract, or checking over the contract of sale if the offer was written on a contract form. Anything can happen in this time period. If issues arise at the inspection that the buyer and seller cannot agree on, if the buyer suddenly develops a case of buyers remorse, there are many reasons why the deal can head south during this period of time.
