A Look at South Baltimore Real Estate Market Stats

Let’s take a look at some South Baltimore real estate stats via Redfin.

The following is a look at the median real estate sale price over the past year for the different South Baltimore neighborhoods that Redfin calculates. As highlighted in SouthBMore.com’s coverage of South Baltimore real estate, in many of these neighborhoods you can find properties listed for less than $250,000 and near or more than $1,000,000. While high-end sales can bring the median up, “shells” (or properties in need of a complete rehab) can bring the median down.

Given that, the following numbers should be taken with a grain of salt, but do provide an interesting overview of South Baltimore real estate.

If you look at the number of home sales for these areas, the most sales occurred during the summer months and the least in the winter. Given that, we are likely approaching an active time in the market.

Inventory was also the highest in the summer, but has been steadily going down since that time. If inventory remains low, but interest increases again, jumps in value can be expected.

According to Redfin, there are currently 2,469 Redfin users looking at homes in the 21230 zip code.
