Hollaway Estates, Upper Marlboro, MD

County Property Tax Assessments vs. Market Value

Neighbors,

In Prince George’s County, MD, property tax assessments are issued in every year in July. The county  Assessor’s office is responsible for valuing your property once every three years.  After reviewing my recent  tax assessment on my own residence in Upper Marlboro, MD, I noticed it has decreased in value (again) roughly 17%.   I purchased this property in 2006 for $410K.  The county has valued it at $244K.  That’s a difference of  -$166K and an overall loss of 40%.  To make matters worse, the real disparity is in the actual sales of properties in my neighborhood.  As a Realtor, I conducted a Comparable Market Analysis or as we real estate agents call it “CMA”, and the numbers suggest that my home would sell for about $190K.  That’s the real “Market Value” and it shows an overall loss in property value of more than 50% of what I purchased the house for six years ago.  I’m in tears!

Now Affiliated with ZipRealty - No more ReMax

Neighbors,

I am now affiliated with ZipRealty!  After much thoughtful consideration and weighing the pros and cons, ZipRealty offered me a broker package that suits my needs.   Due to the local market conditions, which are improving significantly, it was time for me to expand my real estate services to Anne Arundel County, Calvert County, and parts of Baltimore City, MD.  However, I am still servicing Prince George's, Charles, and Saint Mary's county as well.  Below is my official contact information with ZipRealty's Brokerage Office in Baltimore, MD.

Should I Affiliate With Zip Realty?

Neighbors,

As most of you know, I'm a former ReMax Real Estate Agent. Like many other agents and brokers, I left ReMax due to the high affiliation fees they charged each agent/owner on a monthly basis.  Their commission structure didn't seem to coincide with most agent's productivity levels (sales numbers) in this terrible market.  So, here I am now searching for a new brokerage to join.  I'm thinking about joining Zip Realty and would like to hear any feedback you may have on Zip Realty.  Thanks!
