3. US ZIP codes guiding tough choices for home buyers (latination.com) — North Haven's 06473 ZIP code is now one of the nation's most competitive housing markets, with extremely low inventory and buyers making aggressive offers as soon as homes are listed. Listings there get far more views than average, sell in under a month, and often go at or above asking price, demanding larger down payments, tight budgets, and fast decisions from local buyers.
   

4. Zeneli Brothers Buy Another Wooster Street Building (newhavenindependent.org) — Two North Haven brothers who run Zeneli Pizzeria have bought another mixed-use building on Wooster Street in New Haven, expanding their investment near a future restaurant site.
