While most properties in Manchester CT quickly go under contract within a few days of being out on the market, the most expensive home, The Cheney Mansion listed at $2.45M, remains available and up for grabs. Interestingly, the lowest-priced home under $100,000 has been on the market for 968 Days.I advocate strongly for home ownership because real estate is a solid investment.

Significance of the Current Inventory and Absorption RateManchester CT Sold Homes from November 30, 2020 to December 1, 2020 converted into an absorption rate give us an approximate length or period of time when the current inventory of 45 units would be depleted. Five Hundred Fifty Five (555) single family homes were sold within a period of one year.Given the absorption rate of 46 units sold in a month, the Town of Manchester, currently, has only 1-2 months of worth of inventory. This is an emaciated supply of properties. With this inventory, unless demand is curtailed, home prices may increase continuously and leverage will remain with the sellers.Absorption Rate: "The rate at which available homes are sold in a specific real estate market during a given time period." Click on the link for a better explanation of Absorption Rate.Understanding Mean(numerical Average) and Median: "The median takes into consideration the middle value of the set of data. However the mean/average takes into consideration all of the values. Therefore high or low values will effect the mean/average. If the mean/average is a lot higher than the median, there is an unusually high value that pulls the average price up. If the mean is a lot lower than the median, there is an unusually low value that pulls the average price down.In most cases, the reason the median price is used rather than the mean is mainly because it is a more accurate indicator of the market.Planning to buy or sell properties in Manchester Connecticut ?
