Market gauge is calculated using active listings and pending sales from the most recently available reporting period (May 2026 - Jul 2026).
Inventory in Derwood is tight in this rolling three-month view, with only 5 active listings and 1.6 months of supply. New listings are down sharply year over year, falling more than a third, which limits options for buyers. Pending sales and homes sold are roughly flat compared to last year, so contracts are still getting signed despite fewer fresh properties.
Prices have moved upward compared with a year ago even as the latest three-month window shows a recent dip. The typical home value is up about 5% year over year, while the median list price is essentially unchanged, suggesting buyers are paying more than they did last year but sellers are not pushing list prices dramatically higher.
Speed and competition tell a nuanced story. Homes are taking about 20 days to go under contract in this period, longer than a month ago but faster than many points in recent years. At the same time, roughly three-quarters of recent sales closed above list price and the average sale-to-list ratio is just over 101%, underscoring sellers’ leverage in this seller’s market. With low inventory, rising values over the past year, and strong above-list activity, Agent Pronto can connect both buyers and sellers with an agent who understands how to navigate Derwood’s conditions effectively.
Derwood offers residents a welcoming, family-friendly community with well-regarded schools, abundant parks and trails, convenient local shops, and easy access to major commuter routes.
Derwood offers a quieter, more residential feel than nearby Rockville and Gaithersburg while still giving you quick access to both. Tree lined streets, established neighborhoods, and local parks define daily life here, making it appealing to long time residents and those relocating for work in the I 270 corridor.
Outdoor time is a big part of Derwood’s identity. Locals frequent Rock Creek Regional Park for hiking, boating on Lake Needwood, and family picnics, while the Rock Creek Hiker Biker Trail connects Derwood to larger regional greenways. Soccer fields and playgrounds at Redland Local Park keep weekends active, and pets have their own social scene at nearby Mattie J.T. Stepanek Park in King Farm.
Residents appreciate the convenience of the Shady Grove Metro Station, which anchors commutes into Washington, D.C., along with MARC train options in Rockville. Families often focus on Montgomery County Public Schools, including nearby Candlewood Elementary, Redland Middle, and Col. Zadok Magruder High.
Whether you are planning a first purchase near Lake Needwood or considering selling a long held home close to Rockville, timing and preparation are crucial in Derwood’s competitive market. Agent Pronto can connect both buyers and sellers with the right local real estate professional to navigate each step with confidence.

“Kerry was extremely patient and very helpful in following through with questions. She always sent new listings that might be of interest as they came on the market. Even after the sale when we had concerns she addressed all of our questions.”
“We were looking for a house in a certain area and told Pam of our needs. A house came on the market and she emailed me the listing right after it went live. We were the first people to call and tour the house and put in an offer, and I believe that the fast work that Pam put in was a decisive factor in how we got the home. There were days when I might call Pam half a dozen times and she always answered the phone and I could tell she had a smile on her face. This is the second time I've worked with her and I will definitely do it again in the future.”
“It was my pleasure working with you Daniel. You listened to my concerns and responded positively. Thank you”

“After speaking with Tyrone, it's clear he possesses the experience, expertise, local market knowledge and professionalism I was looking for in a realtor. Throughout the entire home buying process he patiently listened to me and quickly understood what my needs were in terms of amenities, community, location, proximity to work, and convenient access to shopping, dining entertainment, etc. And when it came to preparing and presenting our offer, it was collaborative because he valued my input! He had the foresight to establish rapport and an open line of communication with the listing agent early on in the negotiation phase, which helped tremendously! Aside from being a top tier real estate professional, Tyrone is good people...he's an honest guy and his integrity is beyond reproach!!! I recommend him highly, without reservation.”
