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
How long it takes for homes to go under contract after a price drop
Interest rate updates across loan types
Local real estate news including a $16M apartment conversion in downtown Hartford, Amazon’s major land buys in Enfield and Waterbury, and vacancy struggles at City Place I (Connecticut’s tallest skyscraper)
National housing data, including rising rental vacancies, homeownership disparities, and signs of decelerating home price appreciation
Whether you’re a buyer or seller, this episode helps you time your move in a fast-paced and competitive market.
