February Stats Blog - Average Days on Market

If you keep up with us on Facebook, you know that this week is Stats Week! Each day we post the statistics for different counties in the state of Maryland. Seeing as this is not our Facebook page, we thought we'd share some interesting stats for Howard County for 2011.

Here are the average days on market in Howard County for the past five years. For all five years, properties that were listed during the spring market tended to sell faster than properties listed during other times of the year.  Notice how the trend is similar for each of the past five years.
