Davidsonville, MD

The first-time homebuyer credit had no direct impact on real estate sales during October in Davidsonville, Maryland, since prices in this zipcode typically exceed the first-time buyer price range. Yet activity did increase last month over October of 2007 and 2008.

Other good news for Davidsonville home owners is that both the average and median prices increased over the same month last year and the days on market were nearly down to 2006 numbers. Unfortunately, the percentage of sold price to list price is still under 90% - although it went up 2% from the same month last year.

As you can see from this chart, the volume of real estate sales in Davidsonville is very low, so it's easy for statistics to take a dramatic swing up or down if just one sold property is extremely high or low.

For that reason, if asked to make a pricing recommendation to you today, I would expand my search to include both comparables and real estate trends in other Anne Arundel County communities with homes in similar neighborhoods priced in the same range. Other pricing considerations would include location, features and condition of your property.

If you're thinking of selling or buying a home in Davidsonville, Maryland, or you're simply curious about the value of your home, please feel free to contact me for a professional opinion.

Classic “good news / bad news”…

It’s official. WUSA Channel 9 is going mobile this summer. So are the D.C. affiliates of NBC and PBS.

You’ll be able to watch everything from the evening news to CSI or Law & Order to your favorite soap operas and game shows - anything these local network affiliates broadcast, including the ads. Good news for T.V. fans! But there’s another side to the story…

It seems that wireless carriers have no plans to offer “Mobile T.V.” because they already offer their own subscription-based TV services.

D.C. was reportedly chosen as a test market for Mobile T.V. (DTV) because of the area’s “tech-savvy viewers” but two dozen other cities can look forward to the new service by the end of 2009. Perhaps by that time the wireless carriers will get on board – particularly if their customers communicate a desire for it.

Cell phone carriers could drop the ball on this opportunity, but computer manufacturers are scurrying to develop mobile DTV receivers. In fact, Dell plans to show a prototype of a laptop with built-in mobile DTV this week at a Las Vegas trade show for the National Association of Broadcasters.

Stay tuned for more information as it unfolds…
