Each week the Wilton Town Clerk’s office releases data for the prior week’s real estate transactions. For the one-week period from June 11-17, 2021, Town Clerk Lori Kabak reported an astounding 22 properties transferred to new owners, far outpacing any week in recent memory and smashing the 2021 record, set just three weeks ago, of 14 transfers in a single week.
Prices were wide-ranging. While seven of the 22 properties sold for $535,000 or less, including some condominiums and vacant lots along with single-family homes, another seven properties went for well over the $1 million mark.
Important: Please note the Town Clerk’s report contains limited information. For details, please read the document on file in the Wilton Town Clerk’s office. These land transfer reports are available on the town website.

People are moving out of Wilton and Connecticut at an enormous pace.
And other people are buying their houses and moving here. As our real estate coverage has shown this year, Wilton’s land transfers are the strongest in recent years. The narrative that “people are fleeing” is misleading.
John, check with your local realtor. Wilton home prices are up 40% y/y. That suggests many more people want to move in tgan move out. With that price appreciation, many families who held off selling, or couldn’t afford to sell, are doing so this spring finally, so there is a lot of movement for sure.
