Severna Park MD Market Statistics - February 2010 As you can see, in most real estate sales categories, Severna Park MD did not do well comparing February, 2010 to February, 2009. Sales volume and units sold decreased -35% and -28% respectively. The base is low, making it difficult to determine an accurate market assessment based on units alone. While the decrease year over year was significant, Severna Park typically sells around 20 homes per month, on average. Winter months are always difficult to project because of severe weather fluctuations and relatively low number of sales. February of 2010 had two major snow storms which affected real estate in the entire county. Several other indicators can help to see what's going on in the Severna Park, MD real estate market.

Severna Park MD Real Estate - Status for Week Ending 01/30/10 Severna Park, MD added eight new active listings to the current inventory last week. The least expensive was a 3/2 rancher in the Riverdale Forest section. The most expensive listing was a 4 bedroom, 3 bath Cape Cod waterfront on an acre of land. Oh yeah, the price for this one, if you're interested, is $1,400,000. Severna Park, MD is not a big rental market but a new rental listing in McKinsey Park came active. 4  properties moved or changed status into some sort of Contract status, while 7 sold and went to settlement. Same as last week. The contract status changes tends to be a future indicator of settlements to come in the near future.

When comparing December 2009 to December 2008, almost every category, except days on the market, went in the wrong direction. Some of the activity could have been affected by first time home buyers trying to cram in a sale in November before the $8,000 tax credit was to originally have expired. Severna Park, MD had an inventory of 168 homes for sale at the end of December. Fi...

Now that we have the first quarter statistics for the Severna Park, MD market, let's look at some of the revealing and not so revealing numbers. A total of 29 homes have sold in the Severna Park area.  It has taken anywhere between 2 - 7 months to sell.  The average price is a number that can be greatly skewed by the sale of a $1 million dollar home, so we'll leave that statistic alone.  The Average Sale Price as a percentage of Average List Price over the 3 month period ranges from 80% - 95%. It's called a contract sales price.  It does NOT take into account factors such as closing costs or closing help (if any). In other words, sellers should expect to get between 80% - 95% of their asking price.  A most compelling statistic in the Severna Park, MD market is the increase in number of...

Market Statistics for Severna Park, MD in March 2009: Number of Homes Sold - 8 Average Sold Price - $464,328 Median Sold Price - $456,750 Average Days on the Market - 64 Average Sale Price as a percentage of Average List Price - 95.28%. Source: Metropolitan Regional Information Systems, Inc (MRIS) I'm not a big fan of Average and Median Sold Price Numbers.  Many variables can skew the data.  A large sale ($1-$2 Million Dollars) can raise the average sold price but not be characteristic of what's going on throughout the entire market.  In March, 8 homes sold. 4 of those homes sold between $300,000 to $399,999 range. We know that the market has significantly slowed down but it bears repeating with the help of numbers.  As you can see, it took an average of 64 days to sell these 8 homes i...
