Fresh Start: A Tale of Two Markets & Personal Growth

Growth • Fun • Community

Yes, you read that right - fun! It might seem surprising to prioritize something so playful, but why shouldn't joy have a seat at the table of our intentions? It kept bubbling up in my mind, and I've decided to embrace it fully.

I'm curious - what words are guiding your 2024?

Now, let's talk real estate. The 2023-2024 market tells an interesting story, particularly in Northern Westchester and Fairfield County. Here's what the numbers are showing us:

Northern Westchester Spotlight:

Mount Kisco emerged as a standout performer with a 20.6% jump in median sales price to $415,000
Pound Ridge saw a remarkable 71.7% surge to $1,892,500
Bedford experienced a significant shift with a -35.5% change to $1,222,500
Katonah-Lewisboro remained relatively stable at $977,500 (-1.8%)

The inventory story is equally compelling - areas with fewer homes for sale saw values climb even higher, while those maintaining steady inventory held their ground.

Fairfield County's Journey:

The market showed resilience with:

A modest 5.8% increase in median list prices
A healthy 7.4% rise in median sale prices
Nearly stable new listing numbers (-0.7%)
A 10.4% decrease in total sales

A special note about Ridgefield and Redding: These unique markets dance to their own rhythm, often charting their own course independent of broader trends.

Here's to making 2025 our most extraordinary year yet! ✨

Every week I talk to someone who is done with the city. Done with the noise, the rent, the feeling of never quite having enough space to breathe. And every single time they ask me the same question. Where do I even start?

Over fifty incredible people gathered together on a picture perfect day for Yoga in the Garden, and I am still in awe of what came together. It wasn't just the weather or the setting. It was the people, the energy, and the outstanding small businesses that showed up in a big way to make the morning what it was.

A couple of years ago, I met a client named Callann. Like a lot of my clients, she came to me with more than a checklist of square footage and bedrooms. She came with a dream.
