Mid-Fairfield Sales Through Labor Day 2017

Our Mid-Fairfield area, which includes Westport, Weston, Wilton and Fairfield has seen remarkably steady sales in 2017 compared to last year.

Westport, which tends to be locomotive for sales in the 4 towns has had the best year statistically, with 308 sales thus far this year compared to 276 sales in 2016 through Labor day.  The median price has gone up incrementally from $1,289,000 in 2016 to $1,325,000 currently. Approximately 1/3 (96) of the 2017 sales have been under $1 million.  The highest sales price recorded in 2017 has been at 75 Beachside Ave., $6,575,000.  There were 53 new home sales with a median price of $2,115,000.

Weston has been a study in regularity.  2017 sales have totaled 120 compared to 118 in 2016.  The 2017 median price dipped a little over 1% to $789,000. There have been 31 sales over $1 million in Weston, with 4 of those over $2,000,000.  There have been 7 new homes sold year-to-date in Weston.

Wilton too is a near reflection of its neighbor. The 164 sales year to date compares to 163 in 2016, and the median prices have dropped from $808,000 to $765,000, a 5% difference.  34 of these sales have been over $1 million and only 3 have been over $2 million.
