First, I want to say that I am sorry I am a little late posting this information on the current market. I was not aware that anybody really paid much attention to this blog. Only joking - but I was at a settlement today and Roger and Jill (you know who you are and congrats on your new home) were worried the market might have fallen apart because I had not blogged in 2 weeks. The truth is, I went on vacation and was not aware that people were really interested on what the market was doing and how I interpreted it - especially in the 20171 zip code. Obviously, at least 2 people read this weekly - so now I am back. So much for the naysayers and the Washington Post. The market continues to show strength. For this week, there were 107 total listings, 7 new listings and 7 houses received contracts. The number of net listings remains stable to decreasing very slightly. A terrific summer week - especially with the 4th of July in the middle of the week. It is a great time for buyers to buy - it certainly looks like prices have stabilized. As always, those well priced houses that show well are getting the contracts. The last 3 houses that I have sold - all have been within $5,000 of full price. Something that was nearly impossible a year ago. I hope everyone had a safe and wonderful Fourth. Bless our troops! Congrats also to Matt and Keri - they sold their house this week.
