Montgomery County, MD – Market Report 9/3/2009
The data below reflects residential real estate in Montgomery County, Maryland for the month of July in 2009:
- New Listings: 1361
- Total sold: 1130
- Avg. sales price: $459,258
- Days on market: 93
- Total pending: 1302
Compared to July of last year, the number of new residential listings in the county has decreased a little over 13%. Total inventory has decreased by almost 30%. Total days on market has stayed about the same compared to last year (92), but has increased from 68 days in 2007. Sales have come up a little over 30%, while new pending (under contract, but not yet settled) for the month has increased about 47%.
Montgomery County should continue to see continued sales growth due to the reputation of the school system and the geographic location in relation to the employment base along with an excellent public transportation system. The average sales price has decreased about 13.5% due largely to the number of foreclosures in the county. Until the majority of the foreclosures have been released and sold, this number probably will not improve before the end of the year.
