Housing inventory continues to shrink in Montgomery County
May 24th, 2009 Categories: Market Updates
Does it seem like there are fewer homes available in Montgomery County? Jeannette and I have had the same feeling while working with our buyers over the last several weeks. A snapshot of housing inventory confirms that supply continues to shrink. From mid April to mid May, the total inventory of available homes went down to just over 4,300 homes – a reduction of 5%. The number of distress and bank properties went down even more – down 13% from last month.
I absolutely do believe that we’ve found a bottom for entry level homes in Montgomery County. We’ve seen sustained transaction volume there and distress properties are definitely being removed from the market. Anecdotally, I feel like the market for homes in the $500Ks to $600Ks are firming up as well. This is definitely the case in North Potomac, Darnestown and Germantown. I’ll run some stats soon to see if the data backs me up on this.

Tour of home prices in Montgomery County
May 8th, 2009 Categories: Buying, Market Updates
Where should I buy in Montgomery County?
That’s easy. Where do you work? What kind of home would you like? And how much do you want to spend? OK, so it’s not so easy. For most of our buyers, the desire for a close-in, commuter-friendly location and finding the right home at the right price can be tough to reconcile.
To help give a more complete view of what’s available in Montgomery County, I took a snapshot of all homes available and organized them by their distance to Washington D.C. Starting ‘closer in’ and then moving out, I’ll provide an overview of what you can expect in each area of the County.
Here’s a summary of stats referenced in the video. Read the rest of this entry »

Running nonstop from Gettysburg to D.C.
May 4th, 2009 Categories: Things to Do
Montgomery County, Maryland and the entire Metro D.C. area is a fantastic place for runners. It’s tough to find a weekend when you’re not a quick drive to a race. Last week, Jeannette and I participated in the American Odyssey Relay which is a a 200 mile relay from Gettysburg, Pennsylvania to Washington D.C. The organizers did a phenomial job especially considering this was the inaugural event.
The running was fun, but the best part was hanging out with some great running buddies for 36 hours. I took some video capturing the highlights. Start training for 2010!
