Like Sinatra’s “The Christmas Waltz,” It’s that time of the year when…” we look back and take stock of the real estate climate of the last 6 months. In doing that we log each transaction on our website that takes place through the Connecticut Multiple Listing Service (CTMLS) that we subscribe to. It is a time-consuming and tedious job but it can provide some valuable perspective if your home is on the market or you are considering selling and need some realistic numbers to look at. Our HST Sold Data pages for 21 local towns include the original asking price at the start of the listing, regardless of subsequent reductions, expirations, withdrawals and relists (within 2 months of the previous listing) and the total days on the market that it took to achieve the closed price.
If you have questions about any of these transactions you can contact me and I can get you further information or explain the transaction that is posted. Private sales, sans a real estate professional, that take place outside of CTMLS will not appear in our sold data pages. That information is available at the local town hall where the sale occurred.
Throughout the year we update our HST Sold Data pages for 21 local towns central to our Mansfield Storrs location.

The database contains properties sold this year to date and the previous three years 2012, 2013, & 2014.
If you are a prospective buyer and you are looking for a specific type of property such as a home with an in-law possibility, acreage for hunting or recreation, waterfront, or any specific requirement, we have use of an online database that can be helpful in finding specialty properties. We also have a team of agents who share information about upcoming inventory so you can be the first to know about a property becoming available that meets your parameters.
Hiring an agent to represent you in your property search and purchase can make your search easier and more fruitful. If you find something you are interested in purchasing it is valuable to have an agent experienced in negotiating on your behalf and also knowledgeable of the history and current status of the property, the neighborhood and the surrounding area. Interview agents until you find someone that you have confidence in and that listens intently to your needs and wants and is knowledgeable about all properties available, not just their own listing inventory.
