A lot of buyers are surprised by this, but $700K in Severna Park still gives you some really solid options. You’re not stuck settling. But you do need to be intentional, because in this price range, every decision is a tradeoff. And where you choose to buy matters just as much as the house itself. I’m Bonnie Fleishman, a real estate agent with Douglas Realty in Severna Park, MD, and I help buyers make these decisions every day based on what’s actually happening in the market, not just what looks good online. Here’s how I guide buyers through it.

If you’ve been hearing about bidding wars in Annapolis, you’re not imagining it. In certain price ranges and neighborhoods, multiple offers are still happening, especially for homes that are updated, well-located, and priced correctly from the start. What throws most buyers off isn’t just the competition. It’s how quickly everything unfolds. You might see a home hit the market on a Thursday, schedule a showing Friday, and be told offers are due by Sunday evening. That kind of pace doesn’t leave much room to sit on a decision, and if you’re not prepared ahead of time, it can feel like you’re constantly playing catch-up.
