These recent sales leave our market with only 64 available ocean front properties in Ocean City and only 578 available residential listings in all of Worcester County. Additionally, there are but 223 available lots, or land, available to those interested in building a custom home.
The market is still holding strong as a seller’s market, and continues to be an opportune time to list your property for sale. This aggressive trend, lack of inventory, and low interest rates holds a buyer’s market firmly at bay.
