If you are selling

Well-priced homes still move quickly. With 292 homes on the market, buyers have choices, so condition, photos and price relative to the competition matter. Homes that miss in the first two weeks tend to sit. Read how to price your Bowie home this fall, then get your number with the Home Value Pre-Check.

If you are buying

Rates are high, but more inventory means more room to negotiate on some homes, especially ones that have been on the market a few weeks. Sellers with low-rate VA loans may offer assumptions. See our VA loan guide, the $450,000 payment examples and the Down Payment Help Finder.
