The median price of a single-family home increased 32% year-over-year in February, from $1,475,000 to $1,942,500, according to new data, even as the total number of home sales declined.
Just 43 homes were on the market at month’s end, according to the data, released by the New Canaan Board of Realtors. Here’s a snapshot of market activity:
Anne-Lise Brown, president of the Board of Realtors and New Canaan MLS, said in a statement, “The market remains relatively flat, and we did not see the uptick we were hoping for with new listings in February but we expect more inventory for the coming spring market.”
