What Do the Annapolis Market Numbers Say Right Now?

The median sale price sits at about $622,000, down roughly 13% year over year, according to the most recent data from Redfin. Homes spend a median of 35 days on the market, with transactions closing at roughly 99% of the asking price. Overall inventory sits at 112 available properties, representing 3.5 months of supply.

These indicators point to a balanced market that leans slightly toward buyers compared to recent years. For buyers, the 13% pricing adjustment and 3.5 months of supply offer room to evaluate properties without the pressure of immediate bidding wars. Sellers still see solid returns, with about 41% of homes closing above list price, but they should prepare their properties carefully and price accurately to secure a buyer within that 35-day window.

“Proper pricing is essential right now,” says Holden. “Buyers have more options, so a well-prepared listing stands out immediately.”
