Woodand Hills-Recent Real Estate Activity:
Up to the middle of 2008, Danbury seemed to be immune for the economic slowdown and housing crisis. Danbury historically does better than most of the country due to proximity to NYC, major secondary employment markets near by, large economic base in Danbury and affordability compared to lower Fairfield County and Westchester County,NY. The market value is there, with 2 bedroom units declining only 10% for 2007. Home values for the 3 bedroom units have declined 20% for 2007, which is due to the smaller 3 bedroom floor plans selling, but price have remained stable since 2008. 
*There are a number of 3 bedroom floor plans at Woodland Hills vary in size. Because of the size difference (about 1000 square feet from smallest to largest), therefore final sales prices vary based on what is sold. There are also a limited number of 4 bedroom units.For a more detailed analysis on sales, please contact me. For further information about Woodland Hills, explore the website to see current properties for sale.
Sellers have to be realistic in pricing their unit in hopes of getting it sold, but this is a great time to become a homeowner. Not only are prices favorable, interest rates are Buyers should be get on the train because this combination might not come back for a very long time. Most of time, with rents rising, you can be homeowner for almost much money as you would be paying in rent on top of getting all the benefits of owning a home.
