Connecticut Real Estate Market Weekly Insights (5-12-25)

In this week’s Connecticut Real Estate Market Weekly
Insights, the Triniyah Podcast unpacks April 2025 market data
from SmartMLS, focusing exclusively on single-family homes across
Connecticut. The episode starts with county-level comparisons of
median sale prices, with Fairfield, Hartford, and New Haven
counties leading the way in price growth. Listeners will learn
the key difference between median and average pricing, and how
Days on Market (DOM) reflects buyer demand. The episode also
explores which cities are experiencing the fastest sales and the
percentage of homes selling over asking.


Hosts provide a close-up on cities like Stamford, Norwalk, West
Hartford, Waterbury, Meriden, and New Britain—explaining their
price trajectories, affordability shifts, and investment appeal.
They break down the months of supply metric, explaining its
impact on both sellers and buyers, especially in low-inventory
areas like Enfield and New Britain.


Listeners are then brought up to speed on interest rates and what
they mean for buyers, sellers, and investors right now.


The episode shifts to local news, with coverage of two major
development projects:


Tweed New Haven Airport expansion, detailing
environmental concerns and how the project could affect nearby
homeowners and property values.


Winchester factory redevelopment, which aims to
revitalize the Newhallville and Dixwell areas with mixed-use
spaces. The discussion balances projected benefits with the risks
of gentrification.


National housing trends round out the episode, including the
latest mortgage rate updates, economic news influencing Fed
policy, and why mortgage applications surged in early May. The
hosts explain how strong labor markets and cautious Fed decisions
are keeping mortgage rates elevated, and what this means for
homebuyers and refinancers in 2025.


The episode closes with a call to action for Connecticut
homeowners and prospective buyers to connect with Triniyah Real
Estate to discuss their next moves in this evolving market.
