This episode of The Triniyah Podcast dives into the latest Connecticut housing market trends, including rising home prices, bidding wars, interest rates, and the return of springtime buyer demand. It also covers local developments like Hartford’s downtown apartment conversion and Amazon’s land acquisitions, along with national housing data that may impact local markets.
In this week’s episode of Connecticut Real Estate Market Weekly Insights, we break down April 2025 housing data across Connecticut, including the latest on home sales, pricing trends, inventory, buyer demand, and price reductions. Median sale price increased 7.1% year-over-year to $455,000, while the median days on market dropped to just 15—signaling a sharp rise in buyer activity. Homes sold for an average of 2.1% over asking statewide, with even higher competition in certain mid- and upper-price brackets.
We discuss how spring is reviving bidding wars, particularly in the $400k–$799k range, and which price segments are experiencing the steepest price drops. Sellers in the $1.2M–$1.39M range saw the highest percentage above list price (4.1%), while homes under $200k and over $3M often sold below asking.
The episode also explores:
Seasonal patterns in buyer behavior and time on market
