POOLESVILLE MD 20837 REAL ESTATE TREND INDICATOR

POOLESVILLE MD 20837 REAL ESTATE TREND INDICATOR

If you are thinking about buying or selling a home in zip code 20837, you should take a close look at the following report that compares the statistics for the past month with the same month last year. During the month, there were 40 active listings of homes for sale in Poolesville. There were 7 new listings in the area and 8 went to pending new contracts. There were 7 settlements as compared to 5 homes sold last year. The total sold dollar volume was up 21.45% from last year. The median sold price was $350,000. What does this mean? It is still a soft market which favors buyers. Buyers have the largest selection and the lowest prices that have been available for several years. First time home buyers have the benefit of the currently available $8,000 tax credit for settlements that take place before the end of November, 2009. The lenders still have a surplus inventory of foreclosures in Montgomery County and buyers are taking advantage of the bargains. Many home buyers are using FHA financing to take advantage of the low 3.5% minimum cash requirement. The FHA Streamlined 203(k) program allows borrowers to include up to $35,000 of the cost of home improvements in the mortgage. The Housing Opportunities Commission (HOC) is offering 100% financing for qualified first time buyers.
