Now Is the Time to Capitalize on the Maryland Real Estate Market

June 21, 2023

The May 2023 Maryland REALTOR® Housing Statistics Report has just been released, and the numbers speak volumes. Now may be the perfect time for you to consider selling your home and making a move towards new horizons!

Main Ideas:

  1. Despite Falling Sales, Prices Remain Resilient ? Home sales in Maryland experienced a 24.2% decline compared to last year. However, don't be disheartened! The average sales price has grown by 0.5%, reaching an impressive $486,112. Additionally, the median sales price increased by 1.5% to $411,000. These numbers indicate the resilience of the market, even amidst challenges. As a prospective seller, this means that you have an excellent opportunity to fetch a favorable price for your home.

  2. Low Inventory Drives Price Stability and Increment ? One of the driving factors behind the stability and slight increase in prices is the continued lack of inventory. New listings have plummeted by 32.4%, while active inventory has seen its largest decline since the start of 2023, down by 21%. This scarcity of available homes is a golden opportunity for sellers, as it creates a competitive environment that can potentially drive prices higher. If you're considering selling, this is the moment to strike while the iron is hot!

  3. Seize the Moment with Expert Guidance and Resources ? Navigating the current market may seem daunting, but fear not! As a seasoned real estate professional, I am here to assist you every step of the way. Whether you have questions about pricing, staging, or marketing your home, I have the knowledge and expertise to guide you through the process.
