There are 4 things that make up what a house is going to cost you each month in the Greater Danbury, CT area. -Principal and interest for your mortgage. This is how much you borrow from the bank in addition to your initial investment. -Property taxes. This is money used to pay for schools, the fire & police department, and other municipal services. Most banks typically want this escrowed in the mortgage. -Any association dues. This could be a few hundred dollars a month if you purchase in a condo or townhome devolpment or a couple hundred dollars a year in a lake community, -Homeowners insurance-Mortgage insurance. This may be needed to protect your bank's interest in the property and may be needed depending on the type of mortgage you get, in case of your default on the loan. I advise ...

Three Families Home for the HolidaysA Weston CT Real Estate StoryWrapped Just in Time for ChristmasWhen strategy, community and communication come togetherThere is something especially meaningful about helping families close on a home just in time for the holidays. As the year winds down and homes fill with warmth, traditions and togetherness, real estate becomes far more than contract and keys, it becomes about timing, trust and thoughtful guidance.This past holiday season, I had the privilege of helping three families successfully close on their homes before Christmas, including representing both the buyer and the seller of a special property at 104 Blue Spruce Circle in Weston, CT. It's a story that perfectly captures what great real estate representation truly looks like, collaborat...

Congratulations to my friends on purchasing a home for their family in the town of Wilton,CT. Wilton is a lovely upscale bedroom community in Fairfield County, CT. It is about 35 minutes south of Danbury and 30 minutes north east from Stamford, CT.This was a fun one from when an old high school track-mate  called me out of the blue. We connected a few times adults at mutual friends weddings & bbqs and unfortunately a couple of wakes but didn't spend much time together as they bounced around a few spots after college.  So a couple of years ago saying they were going back to the area & wanted assistance on their move. In this super competitive market—and with their search limited to just a few towns in Fairfield County,CT—it took many jumps & false starts to clear the bar.  Multiple offer...

I am pleased to announce the leasing of 2 Lake Terrace Drive  in Danbury,CT This property leased at the end of October 2025. Thank you to my loyal landlord client. This is our 6th time working together over the years to rent her family's guest home. I also have done a number of other transactions for her immediate family over the years as well. I appreciate her support even when things were not easy. We had considerable interest in the property over the time it was listed. We had to carefully screen tenants for credit worthiness and take into consideration some requested terms.  Due to the property being over 130 years old and being on right on Candlewood Lake for year round , there are some cool things but it wasn't for anybody. There is a private dock, but boats are not permitted to d...

How do you hire me as your home buying real estate agent?If you are considering looking for a new home in the Greater Danbury CT, we should get together before going and looking at homes.  Don't go online and start clicking! We can talk about the process, towns, what you want or don't want, financing, questions, what motivates your move , what's happening in your particular sub market and more.  This consultation should save you time and explain what sequence we do things in and help me diagnose before trying to solve your problem. Did you know that in CT it is illegal to be showing property without an agreement. The agreement says which towns we are looking in together, length of time we can work together and requested compensation.  This has to be done before entering a property, send...

The mid-range market ($450k – $650k) is the "sweet spot" in Danbury,CT  for townhomes. This price point generally buys you a modern (post-1995), multi-level townhome with a garage and central air. Two of the large condominium projects in the area are 'Woodland Hills' and 'Timber Oaks', both located along the Danbury/Bethel, CT line.Timber Oaks was built between 2006-2013.  It is a very flat site.. These homes all have a 2 car garage, high ceilings & open layouts. They can feel like single family homes inside. Keep in mind that property taxes from $6900 to $9300/annual, and current association dues of about $463/month  There is an active association that is strict (for example monitoring guest parking spots) and have certain rules for any  exterior modifications as a doorbell camera.Now,...

I would like to thank my  buyer clients for writing in about their experience purchasing a home in New Fairfield. Congratulations to my first time buyers. It's an honor when an old classmate becomes a client, and even better when we find them the perfect place to make the house into a home for their family. We had one class together back in high school and haven't seen each other since despite both of us living & working in town. But Danbury's the kind of town where paths cross again in unconventional ways. .I am grateful to our mutual friends and my amazing past clients who thought to reconnect us when they knew my former classmate was ready to buy. We saw and bid a few homes, but the market was so competitive despite our best efforts we were unsuccessful. With some research by me and ...

There are a few differences between the mls listing and a contract. The mls listing is put together by the sellers agent when they have a client that wants to sell their home. Some of the information comes in from the town's public records. Other information they gather from the homeowner, for say the type & size of a hot water heater, and other information they get on their own like room measurements.  The agent also puts in what appliances or personal property if any would be included in the sale of the real estate. It is for the marketing of the home.  When I listed a home, I always share, unless not requested, a copy of the write up before the listing goes 'live' .   The MLS stands for multiple listing system, which most agents use to post their properties. This data gets sent out t...

Something to consider when purchasing a house is whether you want a single family home or condo. There is a big difference in pricing in Danbury, with the average condo/townhome being sold is close to being $200k more affordable, with any condo or townhome being aroun $390k. With this difference, the monthly mortgage payment should be more affordable even when considering association dues. About as many townhomes in Danbury have sold as single family homes in the last year. They have appreciated at about the single rate as a single family. Some communities have amenities like a pool & gym. It is a lower maintenance lifestyle, as the associations typically things cover snow removal, landscaping, deck maintenance & roofs. Anything on the inside of the home is owners responsibility, such ...

My new clients are now the proud owner of this 'Investor special'  in the Branchville neighborhood of Ridgefield.This property was purchased in 'as-is' shape,  in need of some serious repairs to many of the systems of the house including the septic system. Many of these repairs would scare away most buyers. This property was sold in August 2025  The home sits in an established neighborhood close to the train station,local shop, school & commuter lot. The house has 3-4 bedrooms. 1 bath and 2 car garage.  There is a baseball field in the neighborhood and the home sits on a beautifully landscaped lot.  My clients are seasoned pros who know how to evaluate these projects. They factored in renovation costs upfront and secured the property well below its after-repair value.  I can't wait to s...
