Windham County — April 2026 Market Pulse
Windham County’s market presented mixed signals in April, with single-family median prices declining modestly year-over-year alongside faster absorption times, while the townhouse/condo segment showed sharp price gains amid rising inventory and longer marketing periods.

What Stood Out
- Single-family median prices softened 6.2% while sales velocity improved with shorter DOM, suggesting buyers responded positively to more competitively priced listings.
- Townhouse/condo prices posted a large 42.5% median increase, though small sample sizes warrant caution in interpretation.
- Inventory remained very low for single-family homes (1.8 months supply) but expanded meaningfully in the condo segment, reaching 2.8 months.
- Closed sales volume declined in both categories, continuing a softer YTD trend.
- Percent of list price received strengthened for single-family homes to 102.8% (+3.0%), indicating solid buyer confidence when pricing aligns with the market.
- New listings showed only modest growth in single-family (+2.2%) but rose sharply in condos (+42.9%), contributing to diverging supply dynamics.
Why This Matters
For sellers and realtors, Windham County continues to reward realistic pricing. The faster absorption of single-family homes despite lower median prices shows that well-positioned properties move quickly in this low-inventory environment. In the condo segment, the significant price jump paired with higher inventory and longer DOM suggests greater sensitivity to condition and location — we recommend careful comp analysis and preparation to avoid extended market time.
Buyers and investors may find improved opportunities compared to last year, particularly in single-family homes where prices have eased slightly and properties are selling faster. The still-tight overall supply limits major discounts, but the condo segment’s rising inventory creates more negotiating room for those willing to navigate longer review periods. Entry-level buyers should focus on properties priced to sell quickly.
Looking ahead, the modest increase in new listings could support continued balance if sales volume stabilizes. Participants should monitor absorption rates closely through the spring and summer months to gauge whether current price trends hold or if further inventory growth shifts leverage toward buyers.
Bottom line: Price softening in single-family with condo strength in a persistently low-supply market.
