Aberdeen MD Real Estate: March '11

The market started to heat up in Aberdeen, MD during March, 2011- the most recent month for which complete data is available. 23 Homes sold in the town during that time, which was actually an increase of 15% over the same time during March a year ago. The average home price was $145,000, and the average amount of time that it took to sell the homes was 147 days.

The investors were definitely out in droves, taking advantage of the low prices that are still prevalent in the market. 10 of the 23 homes that sold in March were cash deals, 6 were conventional, 5 of the buyers used FHA financing, and 2 benefited from a VA-insured loan. This shows that much of the buying is opportunistic, but that we should expect the rate of owner-occupant purchasing to increase as the economy improves.
