What does it all mean for your Connecticut home sale?

If you bought your home within the 5-7 years, you should be sitting pretty with some growing equity! If you want to sell, this would certainly be the time to reap the rewards of a continuing sellers market! 

The only downside is for those who bought prior to the last housing crash in the mid to late 2000's. Unfortunately, Connecticut has yet to fully recover from the bust, leaving many Connecticut homeowners still owing more than their homes are worth.
