CT Real Estate Housing Market Report | September - October 2025




Key Insights for Buyers and Sellers

Burlington’s market remains in a seller-friendly stance, but there are early signals of moderation. Home values are still rising, though more gradually. Inventory is constrained but showing modest increases. Buyers remain engaged, especially for well-priced, move-in ready properties. Sellers benefit most when pricing sharply and presenting fully.

Market Performance Overview

  • The average home value in Burlington is now around $519,174, up about 8.6 % year-over-year.

  • In September, the median listing price in the 06013 ZIP was approximately $592,000, showing continued strength in listing activity.

  • Homes sold at a median price of $614,450, with many properties staying on the market about 36 days before contracting.

Inventory & Market Conditions

  • Listings remain limited: mid-fall shows around 48 active homes in Burlington.

  • New listings trickle in, but many homes priced well and staged effectively are absorbed quickly.

  • Multiple-offer situations persist, especially in desirable neighborhoods and for turnkey homes, though the most aggressive bidding dynamics are easing a bit.

  • Homes that are dated, have odd layouts, or are overpriced are taking longer to sell than earlier in the year.

Market Insights & Buyer/Seller Considerations

Buyers

  • Be preapproved and ready to move quickly when you find a strong listing.

  • Favor homes in solid condition, desirable locations, or with popular features to strengthen your offers.

  • Clean, well-structured offers—with minimal contingencies—stand a better chance in competitive listings.

Sellers

  • Precision in pricing is increasingly crucial. Listings that stray too high risk delayed interest or price reductions.

  • Excellent presentation—staging, photography, curb appeal—can tip the balance in your favor.

  • Consider listing early in fall before market momentum slows heading into winter.

Popular Places to Visit in Burlington

  • Historic Village of Collinsville – Scenic riverside area with shops, bridges, and small-town charm.

What This Means for You

Buyers: The market is less frenetic than summer, but good homes still disappear quickly. Be ready, move decisively, and leverage the slight breathing room to vet carefully.
Sellers: You’re still in a favorable position—especially for homes in strong condition—but the margin for error is shrinking. Focus on sharp pricing, standout presentation, and timing to maximize your sale.

Bottom Line

Burlington remains a strong market for sellers—with average values above $519K, solid listing prices, and persistent demand. Days on market are moderate (~36 days), and inventory remains constrained but not static. The shift toward a more balanced pace is subtle but real. Sellers who price well and present beautifully will still command favorable outcomes, while buyers who are prepared, focused, and prompt can still capture value in this evolving market.
