Summary Real Estate Market Performance

Through August, 2011 vs. 2010

 

 

The National Association of Realtors reported this

Week that sales of pre owned homes was up 7.7%

in August, 2011 vs. July. This increase was due to the

large number of repossessions and resulting lower

median selling price.

For Westport, sales were up 5% but not due to

Repossessions and the median selling price was

up 8%.

For surrounding towns, sales were down but median

selling price was up.

For Westport, the trend is mostly positive with both

sales and prices increasing.

For surrounding towns, the trend is not so positive.

Sales are down and prices are up.
