Nestled on the Long Island Sound, Stamford is an exciting place to live, work and visit. This thriving cosmopolitan center is rich with successful commercial enterprises and culture, making it one of Connecticut’s best cities for your home and family.
Rapid growth of corporate headquarters in the 1980s catapulted the downtown skyline from an already thriving community to having many tall office buildings. However despite its built up downtown, Stamford has maintained its distinctive New England charm.
Stamford has abundant leisure activities and cultural amenities. Boat tours on the river provide a special glimpse of the city’s beauty and charm. The full range of outdoor activities can be found at Cove Island Park, an eighty three acre nature preserve that offers visitors a choice of beaches, picnic grounds and bluffs.

Many first-time homebuyers, especially those who are just beginning their search for Connecticut real estate, may be worried if they have a less than ideal credit score. Contrary to what you may have heard, a less than stellar credit score doesn’t necessarily mean that you can’t buy a good property in Connecticut, however, if you want to avoid a mortgage loan with high fees and high interest rates, you’ll want to take some necessary steps to repair your credit score.
It’s quite simple. With a better credit score you will have an easier time finding a lender and landing a feasible interest rate, potentially saving you a ton of money over the course of your loan. Given the prices of homes in the Connecticut real estate market, most people don’t decide on a whim that they intend to purchase Connecticut real estate. Therefore, there should be plenty of time to make sure your credit report is accurate before you even begin searching through Connecticut real estate listings, calling realtors and scheduling viewings.
