Danbury, CT is a very interesting place when it comes to real estate. In the past, I have had clients request to only tour homes serviced with public water and public sewer.  Even with their fairly good sized budget, it severally limited the number of homes available that we could look at.

There are some communities which have priv...

Something that has been used in the last few years is an appraisal gap. Typically, prior to the pandemic, is most buyers seeking a mortgage would include an appraisal contingency.  For example, if the contracted price between the buyer and seller is $500,000, and the buyers lender sends out the appraiser who values the property at $475,000. That would give the buyer the option to renegotiate the deal to the $475,000 or walk way from the transaction, as the buyer may feel they are overpaying for the property.However, it has been a home sellers market in almost all price ranges since 2020. Buyers sometimes have to get creative get a home if they are competing. One thing is the appraisal gap. This means for example, if the seller and buyer agree to a contract price of $550,000, and the buy...
