Monica McNamara's Ocean City Blog

Happy Holidays to everyone!

Check out what is going on in Ocean City for the month of December.

The Beach isn't just for summertime!

Most folks I have found love this recipe that my husband Kevin and I prepare on a pretty regular basis. So as not to write it all over again.

Here's how the fixins go!  It's finger lickin good. Enjoy!

I feel very strongly about an extension being made on this all so important legislation. This is a re-print of an article that I placed.

Please read it and support and encourage your local Senator's to support this bill.

 The goal of home ownership is so important for every individual!

What is the current interest rate?  I am asked that question many, many times during the course of my day.

Thanks to wonderful fellow professionals like Paul Soule of Coldwell Banker Home Loans, I get the best information possible.

Check out the blog post I did today about our interest forecast for the week.

 Our Resort Market Is Hanging In There

There are currently 1,550 resale and new homes in Ocean City, Maryland as reported by Trulia, including 18 homes in the pre-foreclosure, auction, or bank-owned stages of the foreclosure process. That represents only slightly higher then 1% of the inventory. As compared to many areas of the country that is extremely low. Nationwide, foreclosures were up 57% from March 2007 to March 2008, and that trend has continued.

Our overall inventory has been leveling off since the beginning of 2009, which can be signaling that we are beginning to see that light at the end of the tunnel here at the beach. This would not only be good news for the housing sector, but our economy as a whole.

The average listing price for homes for sale in Ocean City MD was $470,356 for the week ending Jul 08, 2009, which represents a decrease of 1.4%, or $6,523, compared to the prior week.

My blog has been made over, and I launched it on July 1st in honor of my blog's 1 year anniversary. You know everybody needs to get freshened up now and then! Please welcome "Ocean City Maryland Talk"!

I feel very strongly that stimulating the housing market will lead to a broad based economic recovery.
