With only 25 active listings on the market, I am guessing that some prospective buyers are waiting for something new to come onto the market.

Good morning, Ed. I know Litchfield and parts of Litchfield County... but can't say I was ever in Watertown. Certainly the home prices are quite reasonable compared with other parts of the State.

Hi Ed,

I like the call to action for those behind on their mortgage.  This is a subject that too many are embarrassed about, and they wait too long to take action.

Ed that was a very nice increase in the average selling price, but the low inventory really hurt the number of homes sold.
