UPDATE FROM THE 2026 CRAZY HOT MD REAL ESTATE MARKET

by Bryan Kerrigan

I listed this lovely and updated 3BR/3BA rambler style home in Silver Spring, MD on May 7th, 2026. After preparing the home for the market, we listed the property at $635,000 and REDFIN heavily marketed the property. Within just 5 days we received multiple offers!

My clients accepted a contract @ $690,000 ($55,000 ABOVE the list price with a $5K closing cost credit). Regarding offer terms, I was able to negotiate an INFO ONLY Home Inspection, a WAIVED Appraisal Contingency, as I was confident the property wouldn't appraise for the sale price, and a FREE 30 day rent back..

Bryan Kerrigan's Listing in Silver Spring sold for $55,000 over the list price in June 2026, showing it is not necessarily a Buyer's Market as many people think.

My very happy clients closed on the sale of their property yesterday. At the same time, I was also able to negotiate a great deal on a much larger home these clients wanted to buy - $25,000 BELOW the list price and we close on that home in less than 2 weeks!
