Key Takeaway: Despite a 6.3% dip in the total number of sales compared to last year, the Average Sale Price has surged 12.1% to $595,986. This confirms that while fewer transactions are occurring, the value of those homes is reaching new heights.It is important to contextualize our current 2026 data. While a quick look at an annual bar chart might suggest a slight dip, remember that the 2026 figure only represents the first three months of the year.

When we look at the time-series data, the "climb" for 2026 is actually starting from a much higher floor than previous years, indicating a very strong foundation for the upcoming peak season.

Notice the dark blue line representing 2026. We started January at $410,000—significantly higher than the $377,000 start in 2025. This "head start" suggests that 2026 is on track to potentially break all-time pricing records by mid-summer.
For those tracking specific month-over-month shifts, here is the raw breakdown of the CT market's performance leading into the spring:
| Month | # of Sales | Median Sale | Avg. Sale | DOM |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| March 2026 | 2,101 | $408,000 | $595,986 | 18 |
| Feb 2026 | 1,774 | $385,500 | $534,307 | 20 |
| Jan 2026 | 2,070 | $410,000 | $565,469 | 18 |
| Dec 2025 | 3,049 | $415,000 | $575,763 | 14 |
Your equity is at a historic high. While the Median Days on Market (DOM) has ticked up slightly to 18 days, the window to list and sell before the summer inventory surge is wide open.
The market remains competitive, but the slight increase in DOM (up 7 days from March 2025) provides a sliver of "breathing room" that wasn't available 12 months ago. Preparation is your best tool.
