Bethesda 20816: DECEMBER MARKET UPDATE 2009

By
Real Estate Agent with Frankly Real Estate, Inc

A little bit late... but here is the market analysis for 20816:

Bethesda, 20816 -Single Family Homes 

Much like the rest of Montgomery County, inventory remained extremely low in December in Bethesda 20816 with a total of 9 new listings (four of which still remain active on the market).

8 homes went under contract in December in Bethesda 20816, while 16 homes settled and 34 listings remain on the market. Only four more units came on the market this December as compared to 2008 but with that small difference there was a noticeable change in over volume sold (up 56.97%).  Now as exciting as it is to see such a jump in overall volume sold - keep in mind that in our market all it takes is one really expensive home to throw these numbers off.

Sellers - why wait until the Spring of 2010 to sell when every one is selling? Stand out from the crowd and sell your house now while the inventory remains low and your competition is limited.

Below is a break down of the activity separated by 4 different ranges in price.

It has been snowing since 10 or 11 this morning but is just starting to stick!! We expect some where between 16 and 30 inches. I have a feeling I will get a lot of writing done...

Wow, Cara, you enjoy a pretty nice upper-end market in Bethesda. Even without a lot of activity, those price points are high. Much of the activity in my neighborhoods is below $400,000.

Great stats Cara.....I've found that very few people in my COI "unsubscribe" when I send market stats.  Who doesn't want to know what's going on with their largest investment????  Best wishes from Clifton Park NY!!!

Elizabeth - I cover a large territory (which includes lower priced properties) but we highlight and market to the Bethesda/Chevy Chase, Kensington and Potomac area. Cost of living certainly isn't cheap any where around the Nation's Capitol!

Lewis - I agree - any one that is online reading about real estate typically is looking for market stats. 

Thanks for stopping by!
