    Housing Options Expand, Offering Buyers More Choices in August

    In August, we saw housing inventory grow nationwide—a 1.2% increase from July and 3% higher than last year. Even with a 5% decline in new listings, the number of homes available continued to rise. Meanwhile, pending sales dipped by 0.2% and median list prices edged down 1.3%. Higher mortgage rates are clearly tempering the pace of the market. I keep a close eye on these trends, drawing from deep experience in Baltimore, Baltimore County, Harford County, Anne Arundel, and Howard. Understanding how shifts like these impact our local market is essential for anyone navigating real estate decisions right now.

    Map Highlights Cities Ready for New Home Growth

    As someone deeply familiar with the Baltimore, Baltimore County, Harford County, Anne Arundel, and Howard real estate markets, I’m closely watching national trends in new home construction. Across the U.S., permits for new builds are now 19.4% below pre-pandemic levels and have been declining for 44 consecutive months. High construction costs, mortgage rates, and affordability challenges are making it harder for builders to keep pace, all while there’s a 4.7 million housing unit deficit. These broader patterns are shaping local opportunities and challenges, and understanding them is key to navigating our market with confidence.

    Maryland Home Prices Rise as Market Remains Competitive

    August brought a noticeable shift in Maryland’s housing landscape. New listings across the state fell sharply—down 23.6%—and active inventory was also leaner by 13.7%. Yet, even with fewer homes available, the median price reached $445,000, and both median and average prices climbed around 2.4%. Home sales dipped 8.5%, with pending sales down just 1%. Having spent years navigating the Baltimore, Baltimore County, Harford County, Anne Arundel, and Howard real estate markets, I keep a close eye on these numbers to help clients understand what’s driving local trends and how scarcity can impact both buyers and sellers.

  • Price Reductions Hit 20.4% of Active Listings

    I've been keeping a close eye on recent national housing trends, and there are some shifts worth noting. In Mid-Q3, 20.4% of active listings experienced price reductions—a signal that higher borrowing costs are having an impact. Homes under contract dipped by less than 1% year-over-year, ending an eight-month streak of growth. The average 30-year fixed mortgage rate reached nearly 6.7% early in the quarter and remained high, finishing over 20 basis points above where it started. Even with softened demand, the market stayed active: the national median list price dropped to $424,500, active listings climbed about 4%, and new listings edged down slightly. Interestingly, fewer sellers chose to delist (down around 13%), so motivated buyers had a bit more time and leverage in negotiations, while strategic pricing continued to lead to successful deals. As we look ahead, steady mortgage rates—rather than simply lower ones—may shape seller decisions, potentially leading to more price cuts or withdrawn listings if rates hover near 6.7%. My experience in the Baltimore and surrounding county markets means I’m always tracking these shifts to help guide your best moves.

  • The Best Time to Buy a Home in 2026

    Timing can make all the difference when it comes to landing your ideal home. For buyers eyeing 2026, the period from September 27 to October 3 could offer a rare blend of opportunity—think expanded inventory, softer prices, and a slower pace. During this week, active listings are projected to be up 31.9% compared to the start of the year and 13.3% higher than the average week, creating more options to choose from nationwide. Listing prices are expected to be 3.5% below their seasonal peak—potentially translating to savings of around $14,000 on a median-priced US home of $416,000. Competition is also forecasted to ease, down 30.1% from its annual high, and homes may stay on the market for an average of 64 days, giving buyers more breathing room. The evolving market trends suggest that as fall unfolds, buyers could see both more choices and greater price flexibility. Drawing on my extensive experience in Baltimore and the surrounding counties, I always keep a close eye on patterns like these to help you make informed, well-timed decisions for your next move.
