Update on the current real estate market for Alexandria, Virginia and Annapolis, Maryland

Alexandria Old Town 22314
For Alexandria Old Town as earlier suspected we are noticing a slow down in the number of homes going under contract and homes sold from the previous month of May. Currently for the month of June we have 32 homes under contract and 33 Sold. At this rate we are expecting a lower number of contracts for June than we had in May.  Expect for the entire 22314 market to experience a rise in DOM and the average sales to original list price to drop. This shift started to happen extremely quick in the last week of May continuing into June.

Current Conditions: Declining but a stable market

Annapolis 21401
However Annapolis (21401) is slightly different with plenty of new inventory hitting the market and new contracts for June projected to be even with the month of May but a lower than usual average sales price. With this lower average sales price and even projection of new contracts we could see the higher end listings $1mil+ take a little longer to sell, the DOM to rise and the average sales to original list price to drop across the board, but more specifically for the $1mil+ bracket. Currently for the month of June we have 34 homes under contract and 24 Sold.


Current Conditions: Neutral

ANNAPOLIS 21401

61 Contracts
