The above beautiful colonial is located at 6 Ledge Road in Old Greenwich.  It has six bedrooms, with four and one half baths, 3,836 s.f. sitting on .55 of one acre.  It is in a private waterfront community, with a shared private beach and has been on the market for just ten days at the asking price of $3.35M.  I love the the old world charm coupled with all of the modern conveniences and the location is spectacular.

Thanks to all of you who have forwarded this newsletter to your friends and family.  I was contacted this week by a Reporter from Greenwich Time, and had a profile article written in the Real Estate Section (Article).  

I have updated the charts with the month to date numbers. The pie chart with the ytd sales, is updated to only show the properties that have sold so far this year.  Hence, that chart's percentages will change from week to week until we get more data.  The month on average to sell through, I will be using the full year rates of closed properties for 2012 as I feel that will give us the most consistent numbers until we get through three months of this year.

As always, if you have a house in mind you would like to see, please do not hesitate to call me.  

I would like to thank Mark Pruner for mentioning me in the Greenwich Patch.  Mark also does his own synopsis of the Greenwich Market at www.greenwichstreets.com.  I have updated the mortgage information on the bottom of the newsletter as well.

Please let me know if you would like me to provide customized information or statistics for you based on your criteria.

As mentioned and seen above, there was tremendous activity in December.  We sold 89 this past December vs. 40 the year before. So far in January we have had 34 properties sold.  We sold 38 last January.  I am hopeful with these numbers, with the incredible December I had thought we may see more of a slowing, so the fact that we are on pace for the same as last year is a good sign in my opinion.

New Listings

As you see in the chart above through the first few weeks of January you already see the inventory is outpacing the past few years.  Last week the in flux of inventory slowed a little which is another good sign.  We have had 80 new properties this month compared to 89 last year.  The busiest January in the last four years was 2010 where we saw 106 new properties.
