š” Whatās Happening in Montgomery County?
Okay, letās talk real estate, but without all the real estate jargon. š
I pulled the latest numbers for Montgomery County, and hereās what August 2026 actually looked like:
š° $212,000- Median sales price
š 47- Homes sold
š 48- New listings
ā±ļø 19 days- Median time on market
š 82- Homes currently available
š $156/sq. ft.- Median sold price per square foot
There are a couple of things that caught my attention.
The median sales price was 11% lower than August of last year, while homes are taking about 32% longer to sell.
But here's the thing...
19 days is still not a long time to be on the market.
So I don't think the takeaway is āthe market is bad.ā And I definitely don't think it's āSELL NOW!ā either.
The market is simply changing, and that means strategy matters.
If you're selling, pricing your home correctly from the beginning can make a big difference.
If you're buying, you may have a little more time to think through a decision instead of feeling like you have to make an offer five minutes after walking through the door.
And if you're somewhere in between, maybe you're just wondering āWhat is my house worth right now?ā -that's a conversation I'm always happy to have.
I don't believe in telling everyone they should buy or sell just because the market is doing something.
I'd rather look at your home, your neighborhood, your goals and your timeline and help you understand what the numbers mean for you.
That's what I'm here for. ā¤ļø
