What I’m seeing

  • Asking prices on today’s listings (median $349,900) are in line with what homes sold for over the past year ($365,000).
  • Buyers have more time to decide here. The typical listing has been on the market about 38 days, often because of a few higher-priced homes.
  • There are more homes to choose from than a year ago: 218 single-family listings now versus 198 in October.

A tip from Stanley

Hamden has more homes for sale than most towns its size, so pricing and presentation decide which ones sell first.
