What the Maryland market looks like right now

Across the 24 Maryland cities we cover, the median of the typical home values was $468,336 in July 2026. The spread inside the state is wide: the typical home in Baltimore was $189,754 and in Bethesda it was $1,148,647, which is why the page for your own city is the one worth reading.

16 of the 24 Maryland cities with data saw homes go under contract in 15 days or fewer, and none took 31 days or more, in July 2026. Those are days to an accepted offer, before a buyer's mortgage adds another 30 to 45 days on top.

Values are split: 12 of the 24 Maryland cities with a year-over-year figure went up and 12 went down, so the direction depends on the city.

Figures come from Zillow's public research data and describe whole cities, not individual houses.

Where to start: closing in Maryland

Selling in Maryland means closing with a title company, and a tax or fee on the transfer of the deed is part of the settlement. The practical points, in plain words:

  • Title companies and attorneys both conduct closings; either is acceptable.
  • Maryland has a state transfer tax, county transfer taxes and a recordation tax; by custom they are split between buyer and seller, with relief for first-time buyers.
  • Non-resident sellers face state withholding at closing unless they qualify for an exemption.
  • Some Baltimore and older properties carry a ground rent, which must be disclosed and affects what the buyer is actually buying.
  • A seller must either complete a disclosure statement or give a disclaimer selling as-is, and either way must still disclose known latent defects.

Selling a house in Maryland: common questions

How fast can I sell my house in Maryland?

Once you accept a cash offer, closing in Maryland normally takes 7 to 21 days, limited mostly by the title search. For comparison, the median Maryland city on our list took 13 days just for a home to go under contract in July 2026, before any mortgage timeline. If you need longer to organise a move, pick a date two or three months out instead.

Do I need an attorney to sell a house in Maryland?

In Maryland closings are normally conducted by a title company rather than an attorney, so one is not required. You are free to have your own attorney review the contract before you sign, and we would encourage it. On a cash sale we pay the ordinary closing costs.

Is there a transfer tax when I sell a house in Maryland?

Yes. Maryland has a tax or fee on the transfer of a deed, settled on the closing statement. Who pays it is set by custom and by the contract; the closing agent will show the exact figure for your county before you sign. This is general information, not tax advice.
