This represents a 133% increase for the month of August, however Single Family unit sales for Cos Cob are still down 18.3% YTD, but that trends slightly ahead of the 21.9% decrease YTD for SF unit sales across all areas of Greenwich.” stated Bryan Tunney, 2023 President of the Greenwich Association of REALTORS®. “This decrease in unit sales year to date is directly attributed to the lack of inventory.
