LIST PRICE vs. CLOSED PRICE IN MONTGOMERY COUNTY, MD, Market Report SEPT, 2008 - Rockville.
Montgomery County Maryland real estate markets offer a market where negotiation is popular. Home buyers often call asking "What is the lowest price the seller will take?"
The only way to discover the lowest price is to make an offer and negotiate the price, terms and conditions until both sides believe that they have the best that they are going to get. Negotiation is more than price in real estate in Montgomery County. How quickly a buyer can close the sale is important for properties that are vacant. Cash buyers can often get better prices because there will not always be a financing contingency. Any contingency included in a contract offer deminishes the value of the offer.
Contingencies often include but are not limited to:
- Financing
- Closing date
- Inspections
- Inclusions/Exclusions
- Earnest Money Amount/Payment
- HOA and Condo Documents
- Acceptance

Your numbers are interesting as you look at the price ranges. Lower you have almost no movement....
It is interesting that the market is changing so rapidly that numbers can start to changed dramatically on any given day. I want to watch the hot sheets in Atlanta to see if the daily "price changes" will reflect yesterdays stock drop. Stock prices and liquidity are great motivators. Next months statistics may reflect more give in lieu of it being harder to obtain financing, fewer buyers in the market, and nervous homeowners that have to sell to get liquid.
