Kevin Grolig Real Estate Resource

Montgomery County MD Home Value Guide

Zestimates and other online tools are a decent starting point, but they don't walk your house, don't know what you updated last year, and don't know what actually closed on your street last month. A real number comes from comparable sales, condition, location, and current buyer demand, cross-checked against the public record.

What Actually Moves Your Value

Recent comparable sales carry the most weight, followed by condition and updates, lot and parking, HOA or condo fees, and how the property shows against current buyer demand. Two homes on the same street can be $50k apart based on kitchen and bath updates alone.

Checking the Public Record

Maryland SDAT and Montgomery County's tax records confirm ownership, assessed value, and property characteristics. Useful for a sanity check, but assessed value almost never matches market value, and renovations don't always make it into the record.

Get a Real Number Before You List

A custom pricing review pulls the actual comps, factors in what buyers are objecting to right now, and gives you a number you can defend, not a computer's best guess.
