homes for sale: I want a house in a subdivision in New Milford, CT. Got any? - 08/30/13 09:45 AM
I set out, camera in hand, to get you some pictures of our subdivisions in New Milford, CT.
A funny thing happened, I realized my concept of a subdivision is not like what others around the country may have. Sure, technically we have them, a few even have a fancy sign, set in stone pillars as an example. Graceful entrances to a few of the newer ones. Yet the older, more established subdivisions have lost their signs, some of the residents probably don't even realize what the subdivision was once called! Of course a trip to the town hall would tell you … (6 comments)

I doubt that 15 homes will sell between October - December of this year. It looks like 2010 was the better of the three years all around for anyone selling. For buyers, this just might be the year.
