    FAIRFIELD Market Trends Q1 2013   The Fairfield market has shown mixed signs of improving since last year with 8% fewer homes selling this quarter than at the same time last year.  This likely reflects the impact of Hurricane Sandy which damaged 2,000 homes in the town at the end of October.  30% fewer listings on the market has resulted in a reduction in inventory to a 13-14 month supply down from a 17-18 month supply last year.   Slow sales at the high end appear to be the driving force behind the lower average sale price as the median sale price has increased from $445,000 to $535,000.  Another healthy sign is the increase in the List to Sales Price Ratio from 93% to 96%. Last year in Q1 the price range was $120,000 to $2.4 million with a median sale price of $445,000.  19 homes ... 04/08/2013
