There is the village center on the Housatonic River, the northeast shore of Candlewood Lake, and rural sections like Gaylordsville, Northville, Merryall, Lanesville and Boardman Bridge. The price, the lot and the septic question all change with the section.

Why sell a New Milford house directly
A house far out on a rural road or near the lake can take time to show, and an older one on acreage often needs more than a typical buyer wants to take on. We make one offer, in writing, and close on the date you pick.
Values were last reset October 1, 2025, and the next revaluation is October 1, 2030. The rate is 23.5 mills, which puts a typical single-family near $7,900 a year, roughly $660 a month. About 19.6% of homes are rented, so some sellers are landlords who want out with the tenants still in place.
Behind on payments or taxes
Facing foreclosure or a tax lien in New Milford?
If you are behind on a New Milford mortgage, strict foreclosure is the norm in Connecticut, and the Superior Court decides the Law Day. Before that day you can still sell and keep whatever equity is left over.
On a tax bill near $7,900 a year, late payments grow. Connecticut sets interest on overdue tax at 1.5% a month, or 18% a year, and the town can record a lien. We pay off the back taxes, interest and any lien at closing.
