Bethel Home Sales Lag as One Home Sells Last Week

Activity is more brisk in area towns.

Bethel home sales have been lagging area towns, as just one home has been selling here each week. This past week, a smaller Bethel ranch this week sold for more than its low asking price, while in nearby Newtown, buyers closed on five low-to-mid-priced homes and one vintage Victorian.
