ROCKVILLE, MD REAL ESTATE MARKET REPORT SEPTEMBER 2008, List vs. Sold Prices

LIST PRICE vs. CLOSED PRICE IN MONTGOMERY COUNTY, MD, Market Report SEPT, 2008 - Rockville.

Montgomery County Maryland real estate markets offer a market where negotiation is popular.  Home buyers often call asking “What is the lowest price the seller will take?” 

The only way to discover the lowest price is to make an offer and negotiate the price, terms and conditions until both sides believe that they have the best that they are going to get.  Negotiation is more than price in real estate in Montgomery County.  How quickly a buyer can close the sale is important for properties that are vacant.  Cash buyers can often get better prices because there will not always be a financing contingency.   Any contingency included in a contract offer deminishes the value of the offer. 

Contingencies often include but are not limited to:

• Financing
• Closing date
• Inspections
• Inclusions/Exclusions
• Earnest Money Amount/Payment
• HOA and Condo Documents
• Acceptance

KING FARM, LUXURY HOMES, WALKING TO SHOPPING, WALK TO THE PARK, WALK TO METRO.

YES, walk to METRO from King Farm.  There are not many communities within walking distance of the Shady
Grove Metro.  But, for owners of homes in King Farm, the 1/2 mile walk to Metro adds value to their home.

KING FARM, a residential community in Rockville, Maryland.  Remember the “King Farm” barn?  For many years, as we drove along Rockville Pike we would see the big white barn with “KING FARM” painted on the roof visible from the road.  Year after year as residential developments came to the area, we knew it had been permitted for a PUD, Planned Unit Development and just waited and watched.  Then in about 10 years ago, the first signs of
construction went up with a couple of construction roads, a few sales trailers and some pathways and
landscaping and King Farm was selling.  The homes were “different”.  They were deceptively large on small
lots with the 2 car garage in the back of the house and the entire lot with the exception of the driveway was
fenced.  YES, white picket fences.  King Farm has the “feel” of a small town. 

KING FARM OFFERED QUALITY FROM THE BEGINNING.   Builders recognized for quality, well designed homes with style and variety of floor plans made showing homes in King Farm a pleasure. The original builders,  Stanley Martin, K.Hovanian, Churchill Group and M/I Homes offered model homes as quickly as possible and there was the popular “Model Home Park” with a model home for each builder. 

The first homes in King Farm were detached single family home models with spectacular interiors and since King Farm is a high density community with small lots, the first homes were clustered on a block where buyers and agents could easily walk to the models and spec homes under construction by the builders.  Prices were about $400,000 for the first detached single family homes.  The first town homes were priced at about $225,000 and the original condominium homes were in the $175,000 range. 

Today, Condominium homes sell for $350,000-$500,000.  The Town Homes sell for $550,000-$700,000 and detached single family homes sell for $750,000 to the high $900K ranges.  Prices have more than doubled
since construction began.  

THE KING FARM REAL ESTATE MARKET IN JANUARY 2008.

KING FARM HOMES SOLD IN 2007
Condominium homes SOLD for an average price of about $444,000.                            
Town Homes SOLD for an average price of about $462,000.
Detached Single Family home sold for $890,000.

KING FARM is a short walk to the Shady Grove Metro Station.
