The interesting factors is that the median price for West Windsor condos has continued to decline from last year and from last month.This could be an indication that the first time home buyers are affected by the mortgage problems and are not in a position to by, this reducing demand for condos and therefore declining prices. In some communities , like Princeton, the inventory of available homes has been much lower then last year. This is not the case in West Windsor.
