The Commanders Had a Better Week Than the Real Estate Market!

Contract activity for January 12 - 18 , 2025 in the Metro DC area was down 18.7% compared to the same seven-day period last year. Through the first 18 days of the year, activity is down 14.7%.

 

Key Takeaways

  • The Commanders are on a roll – and so is Mother Nature!
  • The cold and snowy weather so far this year has really quieted the market, and we’ve got some more cold days ahead. But the folks in Montgomery County and Washington, DC must have gotten their snow shovels out, because they actually had modest increases in contract activity last week. Each was up 3.4% last week.

 

Why it Matters

  • While the market is off to a slow start, there is some good news.
  • When weather keeps people away from restaurants and other enterprises, that business is lost. In the real estate, business is deferred, and will come back when it’s easier to show houses.
