Summary

As you may have noticed, the market is fairly stripped of available properties. For example, 1150 total condos were sold in 2018, yet there are only 475 on the market at the time of this report.

This also holds true for single-family homes: While 889 homes sold in 2018, there are only 336 currently available for purchase.

Similarly, all of Maryland saw higher sales in 2018. Further, there was a marked increase in the sold prices between 2017 and 2018. 

If you are interested in selling your condo or home with less competition, this may be a good time to list your property on the sales market.
