❄️ Ellicott City Weekly Market Update | March 3, 2026 ❄️The numbers this week are basically shouting one thing: Ellicott City is moving… just not in a straight line.Here’s what happened in the last 7 days:• 16 New Listings• 16 Coming Soon• 2 Under Contract• 6 Expired• 19 Closed• 0 CanceledWhat does this actually mean?Inventory is finally waking up, but buyer momentum hasn’t caught up. When you have 32 homes entering the market (new + coming soon) and only 2 going under contract, it’s a signal that buyers are being extremely picky, rates are making them cautious, or a handful of homes are simply missing the mark on price or presentation.On the flip side, 19 closed sales show that well-priced and well-prepped homes are still getting to the finish line. The 6 expired listings tell the othe...

Historic Savage Mill has long been a favorite of mine, especially at this time of the year. Walking into Yuletide at Savage Mill feels like stepping straight into a holiday storybook. The historic mill, with its brick walls, rich wood staircases, and timeless character, flows with festive decor and twinkling lights that wrap this Howard County landmark in seasonal charm. Yuletide runs daily through December, with shops open from 10 AM to 6 PM. Strolling through the decorated halls, you'll find local artisans, unique gifts, antique treasures, and cozy corners that make holiday shopping feel less like a chore and more like a tradition. You can also book a time slot to craft your own pottery, candle, or jewelry, and support a great cause at Charity's Closet & Success in Style! And then the...
