CT Real Estate Housing Market Report | November - December 2025




Key Insights for Buyers and Sellers

Avon continues to sit firmly in seller-market territory, but the market is showing early signs of moderation as we head into winter. Home values remain strong, demand persists, and inventory is limited — but buyers are starting to see slightly more options and a little more time to evaluate. For sellers, sharp pricing and polished presentation remain crucial. For prepared buyers, there remains opportunity — especially for well-kept homes that match market expectations.

Market Performance Overview

  • The typical home value in Avon is now about $559,008, representing a solid +6.5% increase over the past year.

  • Recent data shows a median sale price around $565,000 and a median list price near $635,000 as of late October.

  • The median “days to pending” remains short — around 8 days on average — though slower than the frenzy of earlier 2025.

  • Homes continue to sell close to or slightly above asking: the sale-to-list ratio hovers around 1.016 — a healthy but modest premium over list price.

Inventory & Market Conditions

  • Active inventory remains relatively constrained, with roughly 50–60 single-family homes for sale in town.

  • New listings continue to come on the market — but many quality homes that are priced and presented appropriately continue to attract interest quickly.

  • While multiple-offer scenarios still occur for well-priced, desirable homes, bidding intensity is less uniform than during summer — giving buyers a bit more room to evaluate.

  • Homes that are outdated, need work, or are aggressively priced may sit longer than in peak 2024–2025.

Market Insights & Buyer/Seller Considerations

Buyers:

  • Continue to prepare — pre-approval and clarity on terms remain key.

  • Prioritize homes in strong condition — condition and presentation still sway outcomes.

  • Use the slightly slower pace to perform thorough inspections and evaluate comparables, but be ready to act when the right home appears.

Sellers:

  • Accurate pricing is more important than ever. Overpricing risks stalling demand.

  • Presentation — staging, photography, updates — remains critical to stand out.

  • Consider listing sooner rather than later before the holiday season slows activity further.

What This Means for You

If you’re looking to buy in Avon — the market still offers opportunity, particularly for homes that are well-kept and priced to reflect current conditions. While competition remains, the market’s pace is becoming more measured, offering a subtle edge to prepared buyers.

If you’re looking to sell — Avon remains a strong market for the right home. However, given the slight moderation, positioning (price, condition, marketing) is critical to achieving results comparable to peak demand periods.

Bottom Line

Avon continues to see resilient home value growth — with a ~6.5% year-over-year increase and healthy median sale prices. The market remains in seller favor, but the dynamics are easing: inventory is still limited, but demand has cooled slightly; homes still move quickly, but margins above asking have narrowed. For sellers, marketing excellence and pricing precision will drive success. For buyers who are ready and selective, the timing may be increasingly favorable.
