Breaking down the real estate headlines and MLS stats so you, the local homeowner, can stay informed on what matters to our hyper-local Glastonbury market. 

The sellers who can get on the market ahead of the spring market, will likely do very well this winter. The weather is much warmer than expected and BUYERS are ready to purchase.  Rates are more favorable than the last half of 2022 making this winter a great time to get your house ready and get on the market ahead of the competition. 

Having a properly prepared house is key to attract buyers and secure a solid offer. Buyers want as "move-in" ready as possible. Experienced local Realtors know which key updates bring in the highest return on money spent.

With homes prices pushing upwards, condos in Glastonbury offer a great value for homeownership with attractive purchase price range for buyers. Not to mention the potential of making a good investment for rental potential in the future should you decide to later buy a home and hold your condo investment.
