Market gauge is calculated using active listings and pending sales from the most recently available reporting period (May 2026 - Jul 2026).
In New Canaan, the rolling three-month data through July 2026 shows more homes available and more deals getting done. Active listings are up more than 20 percent from a year ago, while homes sold have climbed nearly 19 percent and new listings are up about 38 percent. Pending sales are also higher than last year, indicating steady contract flow despite the increased inventory.
Pricing has pushed noticeably higher in this environment. The typical home value over the last three months is up by about one-third year over year, and the median list price is more than 11 percent higher than a year ago. Sellers are often exceeding their asking prices, with roughly 75 percent of recent sales closing above list and the average sale-to-list ratio around 107 percent.
Speed has also shifted, with homes now moving more quickly than they did a year ago. The median time on market over the rolling three-month period is 16 days, down sharply from much longer marketing times last year, and about 37 percent of listings go off market within two weeks. Months of supply sits near 2.3, reinforcing the current seller’s market conditions even with higher inventory levels. With strong demand, rising prices, and fast-moving listings, both buyers and sellers in New Canaan can benefit from Agent Pronto’s help in finding a local agent who understands these trends.

“Agent Pronto referred us to The Bella Group LLC. Jeff's professionalism, kindness, and knowledge of Connecticut made the experience marvelous. We are from New York City, and he literally showed us properties in many counties. His knowledge of many areas made it possible for us to find the perfect house for us. Jeff made sure that we were receiving daily listings. He always kept us updated regarding the things that needed to be taken care of before the closing of the new house.

We appreciate his help and professionalism throughout this process. We definitely recommend Jeff as a realtor.”
