The volatility in the stock market has some buyers concerned about purchasing real estate. Here in Connecticut, our market has been shaken but sales continue at a decent pace. In Hartford county the number of home sales for the 3rd quarter of 2008 has stayed the same or slightly increased since the second quarter. Real estate professsionals consider this a positive trend and are calling a "bottom" in real estate prices.
Statistics are from the Greater Hartford Association of Realtors and the Connecticut Multiple Listing Service.
