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.

What a whirlwind since I last checked in! For everyone who came out to any (or all!) of the events this spring, thank you for your magic — you truly made them special. As we jump headfirst into summer, I wanted to share a quick market update with you all.

Every week, I sit down with Fairfield County sellers who are ready to move, but hesitant to list. And when we dig into why, it's rarely about the market or the timing. It's the unknown.

We talk a lot about wanting community, but most of us are waiting for it to find us. The truth is, community isn't something that happens to you. It's something you build, one small choice at a time.
