So what is happening in the Real Estate Market this month you ask...
Maryland Real Estate Market Update for May 2023
Let's take a look at last months numbers to see what is happening in the real estate market in Maryland.
Tight Inventory
The number of sales is down 33.8% across Maryland from April last you to April this year. Many homeowners are holding onto their homes, especially those with mortgages featuring very low interest rates. We see that this shortage of inventory is leading to slight increases in both average and median prices. Remember that last year saw huge increases with fierce competition and huge escalations and buyers giving up most if not all contingencies.
Pipeline - More Tight Inventory
When looking at the pipeline of sales coming in the next few months, it looks like the inventory will continue to be tight. New Listings, Active Listings and Pending Listings are all down in April compared with the same month is 2022.
Speed Wins
Although the length of time a property stays on the market is slightly longer at 7 days as compared to 6 days in 2022, that is still a very quick market and it's important for buyers to be ready to go.
