Resale Comments:
My independent MRIS research shows that there are currently 21 homes on the market in the 21794 zip code. Most of these homes are overpriced or are in less than ideal condition that do not attract buyers and just sit on the market. The average day's on the market for these active properties is 147. There are currently 4 properties under-contract. These buyers have found and are expecting and getting a great value-a good home at a good price and with all the competition for their attention, they have a lot of choices. These buyers are really picky. There were 6 properties that sold in the last 60-days. The average day's on the market was 184. Buyers have a sense of what's fair market value and what's not and they just won't show up if sellers are not in the ballpark. There is currently 9.13 months of inventory on the market in the 21794 zip code. It's very important that sellers price their home correctly and competitively. Buyers are looking for value pricing and if sellers don't meet these expectations, they'll be overpriced and overlooked.

The National housing market may not stabilize until the 1st quarter of 2011. Foreclosure activity hit an all-time high in the 1st quarter of 2009. Twelve percent of all mortgages are at least one payment delinquent says the Mortgage Bankers Association. Not only has foreclosure activity surged, it's become more widespread, as prime, fixed rate mortgages now constitute 56% of mortgages in the foreclosure process. Source: Housing Wire.
