Selling a Home in Kentlands MD

Kentlands isn't a typical Montgomery County listing. It's a New Urbanist community in Gaithersburg with rowhouses, condos, and single-family homes mixed within walking distance of Kentlands Market Square, and an HOA structure that touches almost every sale. Pricing a Kentlands home means pulling comps by product type first (a rowhouse doesn't comp against a detached single-family), not just by zip code. Here's what actually needs to happen before you list, and the questions worth asking any agent before you hire them.

Before Listing

Pull comps by housing type, not just neighborhood. Kentlands mixes detached homes, rowhouses, and condos on the same blocks, and they don't price the same per square foot. Check HOA and condo association fees and any special assessments before you set an asking price. Look up the property's assessment on Maryland SDAT and confirm the tax record matches what's actually on the lot (additions, finished basements, etc. sometimes aren't reflected). Factor in condition, prep costs, and timing against current market data. Data goes stale fast. What sold in Kentlands six months ago isn't automatically your number today.

Marketing Plan

A real listing plan covers professional photography, listing copy that's specific to the home (not template language), video or social distribution if it's part of the strategy, a showing plan, launch timing, and how buyer feedback gets used to adjust price or approach mid-listing. If an agent can't walk you through each of these with specifics, that's a red flag.

Agent Questions

Ask directly: How do you price rowhouses versus single-family homes in Kentlands? What's your prep and staging process? How often will I hear from you during showings, and how? Can you show me results from a recent Kentlands or Gaithersburg listing? Skip agents who answer with "best in the area" instead of specifics.
