Prices Stable in Montgomery County, MD.

Prices are stable, but the average home price as a percentage of the list price is 92.42%.  That means that the buyers agent has negotiated a price of about 92% of the list price.  That’s our job.  To get the best price for you for your home of choice. 

What’s involved in negotiating a good price for our buyers?  For one thing, knowing the market.  Looking at a lot of homes and studying the recently sold prices to on top of the recent appraisals.  Unrealistically low prices don’t usually result in a sale, but a well considered offer with supporting SOLD data to justify an offer is likely to result in a good price for our buyers.  Experience county.
