Real Estate Report: Westport Outpaces Area

By Judy Szablak

Despite the doom and gloom that we keep hearing about the New York metro area real estate market and its lackluster performance this year, Westport continues to outpace the area, even if it is only by a small margin. The key factor here is that Westport is showing gains.

Year to date sales of 329 single family homes show the exact amount of closings for the same time period in 2011. However, they also show an increase this year in the average sale price of just over 3.1 percent.

The average sale price for the 329 homes sold in 2011 was $1,353,143 in comparison to this year’s figures which show an average sale price of $1,393,698.

While the N.Y. metro area statistics and data are of importance, real estate remains hyper-local, and what happens in “our own backyard’ is more relevant. The year-to-date figures are a positive sign for a healthier 2013.

By James Lomuscio

More than a dozen bidders have responded in the first 24 hours since the town posted two RFPs (requests for proposals) on its website Wednesday soliciting bids from prospective tenants for the newly refurbished eastbound Saugatuck train station house as well as the one at Greens Farms, Westport Deputy Police Chief Foti Koskinas said today.

“And even before we posted them, we had five or six people calling,” said Koskinas, whose department oversees Railroad Parking which manages the stations owned by the state.

One RFP with a minimum bid of $1,400 a month seeks a coffee concession to operate from 5:30 a.m. to 8 p.m. out of 1,600 square feet of the Saugatuck station house. That same RFP requires the tenant to also operate from 5:30 a.m. to 10 a.m. at Greens Farms, with the minimum bid at $500 a month, according to Richard Kotchko, the town’s purchasing officer.

The second RFP with a $1,400 a month minimum bid is for a approximately 275 square feet of office space at the eastbound Saugatuck station house. That space, adjacent to where the coffee concession would go, was previously occupied by Westport Taxi.
