That is a very detailed report, Ed.  The median sale price certainly jumped in Feb vs last Feb.  I'm curious to see if this trend will continue

Thanks, Bruce. Southington is an active market and right now the most active in our area.

Christi, I smile every day. That first home is interesting.

I would like to see the values increase a bit, Hopefully when the weather breaks the activity will jump as well.

George, Southington is active but the surrounding towns don't have as much activity
