Expect Westport’s fall real estate market to provide a last quarter uptick in sales.
While we have experienced seasonally slow home sales over the summer months, history shows us that sales pick up again once Labor Day has passed, and school is in session.
Our market is strikingly similar to last year with overall sales, and interestingly enough, we are only two sales behind 2014 at this time, even though it may seem like the market is not nearly as active.
The fall market is an interesting one, and historically, these next few months can account for anywhere from one-quarter to one-third of all sales recorded for the year.

An application for a permit to demolish the house at Westport’s 5 Country Road, off Compo Road North, is in process. Built in 1950, the one-story ranch has 4,754-square feet, is situated on a 1.16-acre property and, according to Tax Assessor records, last changed ownership in 2004 for $2,225,000. Because the house was built more than 50 years ago, the application will be reviewed by the Westport Historic District Commission. (CLICK TO ENLARGE) Dave Matlow for WestportNow.com
Passersby on Post Road East seeing a “For Lease” sign in front of the Sunoco service station, 322 Post Road East, understandably thought the whole property was for lease. In fact, owner Mike Devino, president of family-owned, Waterbury-based Mercury Energy, said the service station will remain. But he said the service bays, unused since the property was acquired in 2008, are available for a retail business such as a coffee and donut shop or a convenience store. “We use the bays for storage,” Devino said. “The space is underutilized.” (CLICK TO ENLARGE) Dave Matlow for WestportNow.com
