If there’s one thing we’ve got in real estate, it’s data. LOTS of data.

But around Montgomery County, we have real estate pockets where the data you hear on the news—or even from the next town over—may not tell you much about what’s happening in your neighborhood.

If you’re trying to make a real estate decision, you want the data that’s specific to where you live:

How many homes have sold in the last 6 months?
At what prices?
How do they compare to yours?
How long did they take to sell?

And then there’s the part the data can’t tell me: how your home compares.

A quick tour of your property gives me the context I need to pair the neighborhood data with the specifics of your home and give you a much more accurate assessment of its value.

Want to know what the data says about yours?

Everywhere I go, people talk to me about real estate. (Go figure.)

And one thing I hear constantly is some version of:

“Nothing is selling because everyone has these great interest rates and nobody wants to give them up.”

You know how many homes sold in Montgomery County in July?

944.

Nine hundred and forty-four homes. In one month. In one county.

It’s easy to take what you hear on the news—or what you see happening on your street—and turn it into a story about “the market.”

But there isn’t one real estate market. And headlines don’t tell you what buyers and sellers are actually doing where you live.

944 Montgomery County sellers found a buyer in July.

The market isn’t frozen. People are moving.

Office Hours start in one hour!

Every Thu at 7pm, it's an opportunity to join from home and bring me your biggest and smallest real estate questions.

Real estate questions usually come up long before you're ready to move.

As soon as you have the thought, "This house isn't working for us anymore," your brain starts looking for solutions.

Should we renovate? If we moved, where would we go? I wonder what this house is worth. Could we afford something larger? Where would we even start?

Talking through those questions can bring so much clarity, but people tend to put it off because they think it's too early.

Starting Thursday, July 16, I'm opening Office Hours every Thursday from 7:00–8:00pm ET on Zoom.

There's no presentation, no appointment, and no pressure. Ask questions, listen to the conversation, or just stop in for a few minutes.

If you know someone who's thinking through their options, I'd appreciate if you'd share this with them.

What's happening in Maryland real estate? 🏡

Here are a few highlights from June:

📈 Home sales: +2.3% year over year
💰 Average sale price: $565,713 (+3.8%)
⏱️ Median days on market: 11 days (unchanged from last year)

The biggest story, though, is inventory.

While the number of homes for sale nationally increased 1.3%, Maryland's inventory fell more than 13% compared to last June.

There are still plenty of buyers looking, but we simply don't have enough homes—across a range of price points—to meet demand.

If you're wondering what this means for your neighborhood or your home's value, feel free to reach out.

One thing I love about holding open houses in Kentlands is that I get to gush about our community.

I've lived in Gaithersburg for almost 30 years, but when I discovered Kentlands in 2014, I knew I'd found the right neighborhood for me.

When people aren't familiar with it, I love to tell them all of the wonderful things about it and watch their eyes light up.

"You want a great restaurant? What kind of food? I have 8 suggestions off the top of my head that you can walk to."
"Wait until you see Halloween here -- it's EPIC!"
"A peaceful walk through the woods? Right this way, and enjoy the gorgeous lake views."

The list of amenities here is endless.

If you feel watching me gush a little, come on by (here til 3).
