Market Update for 20814 Zip Code October 2025

By
Real Estate Agent with Keller Williams Capital Properties DC AB15253

Market Report Zip Code 20814 | December 2025

The 20814 zip code covers a number of neighborhoods in Bethesda and stretches north and south of the Beltway along MD 355 (Rockville Pike.)

 

It is a mixture of upscale and entry level condos and single family homes which range in price from the $800s to well over $6M for classic homes in communities like Edgemoor.  In the area around Oakmont and Wildwood, there are new home builds in the high $1Ms to approximately $3M.  To see what is on the market currently in all price ranges, just click here.

Here is some information about market activity in October.       

The median sale price reflects the number of entry level condos in this zip code, such as the Promenade and Parkside just north of the Beltway and Sussex House and the Whitehall. both on Battery Lane. 

DAYS ON MARKET

The average days on market is now 42, which is a notable increase from the 5 year average of 27 days.  The average days on market has also increased by 27.3% from last October.  Clearly, sellers need to be prepared for their homes not flying on the market as they have in the past.  October 2025 was particularly difficult since the Federal Government was shut down during that period. 

AVERAGE LiST PRICE

     

As you can see the average list price in October fell below the average list price for the 5 year average.   Similarly, the average sale to list price also has dropped from 98.3 to 96.3%. 

MONTHS OF SUPPLY IN ZIP CODE 20814

The market is definitely slowing down as the number of homes on the market has increased and in October there were 3.3 months of supply as opposed to the five year average of 1.7 months. 

OCTOBER SALES ACTIVITY

The number of closed sales spiked in October but the median sold price dropped substantially.  

Zip code 20814 is moving to a buyers' market, so if you are thinking of buying, this is the time to start planning for your new home in 2026!  We'd love the opportunity to meet with you. Whether you are looking for a first time purchase in a condo community or a luxury home in Edgemoor, we should talk!

Excellent report, Lise. For a minute I thought you were doing a report on one of the zip codes in my market... as I do updates on 28104. I must have looked at your zip code three times before I "figured it out."

Nina Hollander, Broker Thank you for the kind words! I can totally relate, zip codes start to blur together after a while. Love that you’re keeping your 28104 audience informed with regular updates.
