July 3, 2026 - 08:15

A steady flow of property sales marked the first week of July across the tri-state region, with transactions recorded in Berkshire County, Massachusetts, as well as Litchfield County, Connecticut, and Columbia County, New York. The period ending July 3, 2026, showed a mix of residential homes, vacant land, and commercial properties changing hands.

In Berkshire County, several single-family homes sold in Pittsfield and Great Barrington, with prices ranging from modest fixer-uppers to well-maintained estates. A notable sale in Lenox involved a historic property that had been on the market for several months, finally closing near its asking price. The market in southern Berkshire continues to attract buyers from metropolitan areas seeking second homes or permanent relocation.

Across the border in Litchfield County, Connecticut, activity was concentrated in towns like Salisbury and Sharon. A lakefront cottage in Kent sold above the listing price, reflecting ongoing demand for waterfront access. Meanwhile, Columbia County, New York, saw multiple land parcels change hands, particularly in the Hudson Valley corridor near Chatham and Hudson. These sales suggest continued interest in rural and semi-rural properties, though agents note that inventory remains tight in the most desirable school districts.

Commercial transactions were lighter this week, but a small retail building in Great Barrington was purchased by a local business owner planning to expand. the region maintains a stable market with no dramatic price swings, though bidding wars are still common on well-priced entry-level homes.
