By Sari R. Updated on 10/21/2013

For those who are currently living in and looking to live in Connecticut, the Connecticut Home Blog (part of CT Realty Blog) offers a multitude of resources as well as a source of entertainment for its readers.  Updated daily by Coldwell Banker real estate agent Judy Szablak, the blog offers pertinent real estate tips and tricks and home buying/selling advice.   Szablak certainly knows what she’s talking about – she’s been a realtor for over 28 years, has been on HGTV, Sirius Satellite Radio, local NPR radio, and authored a book called “The Art of Buying or Selling a Home.”  

Every Friday, the Connecticut Home Blog releases the most current and updated rates for Connecticut.  With these rates also comes a detailed analysis about what these numbers actually mean in terms of getting a mortgage in Connecticut.  These details are explained in such a way that non-mortgage professionals can understand the terminology, which is extremely helpful when you’re buying or selling a home.  The blog also features free unrestricted MLS access – a huge plus for readers.
If you’re just fishing around for some information about Connecticut, the blog offers plenty of resources for that – you can find town demographics and market statistics directly off the individual city pages located to the left of the blog.  The information provided about all of these cities is so detailed that you will be ready to buy a house and join the Connecticut community in a heartbeat.  The blog gives several tips about how to increase resale values of all the properties and gives thought provoking articles such as, “Which types of homes have the best resale?”

If you prefer to get titles streamed directly to your news feed, you can also follow any of Szablak’s 25 town-based Facebook pages or 6 local Twitter accounts.  The blog also provides a link to the socially connected realtor’s YouTube page, which presents a variety of informational videos dealing with various real estate topics.   Overall, the Connecticut Home Blog is on the cutting edge of technology and provides excellent information to its readers.  Updated every day, the blog reads well and gets its point across while still drawing in readers to Fairfield County, Connecticut.  The Connecticut Home Blog gets 5/5 stars for being informative, entertaining and concise.   Well done, Connecticut Home Blog!
