According to Zillow, as of today, there are 2,405 homes for sale in Anne Arundel County. The majority of those homes are concentrated in either Northern Anne Arundel County or along the bay to the east. There are also highly concentrated clusters around Crofton, Odenton, and Fort Meade. This should come as no surprise, as these are some of the most densely populated and sought after areas in the county.
Northern Anne Arundel County provides easy access to Baltimore City and boasts many convenient amenities, the bay provides great scenery, easy access to the waterfront and many leisure activities, and the clusters in Crofton, Odenton, and Fort Meade are due to their close proximity to Fort George G. Meade, the largest employer in Maryland.
The farther south you travel, the more rural the county becomes, which inevitably means fewer homes and options. The southern most tip of the county is North Beach Park, which is a nice beach access community that has some options.
From north to south, east to west, there are great options. However, the relevance of those options to a specific buyer is something entirely different. Of the 2,405 homes for sale throughout the county, 870 are over $500,000.00, which equates to roughly 36% of the total homes, 1,159 are under $300,000.00, which equates to roughly 48% of the total homes, and 376 are between $300,000.00 and $500,000.00, which equates to roughly 16% of the total homes.
In these figures we find the dilemma. In today's market the $300,000.00 to $500,000.00 price range is the sweet spot. It's the range where the majority of Marylanders are looking to buy, yet it has the least amount of homes for sale. This is where a strong realtor comes in handy. It is critical for buyers to find an agent who has great command of the area, can navigate the tumultuous waters in this range and get their clients into an affordable home that suits them. It can be a difficult task, but is possible when you find a realtor who is attentive, has great resources, has an established network, and knows how to make the area work for you.
