“Working with Makeda Phillander to sell our home in Maryland was truly a great experience. From the beginning, she was professional, knowledgeable, and very responsive, which made the entire process feel much less stressful. She guided us through every step, from pricing the home correctly to handling showings and negotiations, and we always felt confident that everything was being managed the right way. What we appreciated most was her patience, honesty, and the genuine effort she put into making sure the sale went smoothly. We're very grateful for her support throughout the process and would absolutely recommend her to anyone looking to sell their home.”

Market gauge is calculated using active listings and pending sales from the most recently available reporting period (Feb 2026 - Apr 2026).
Ilchester currently leans toward a seller’s market, with the market gauge signaling conditions that still favor owners. A tight 2.2 months of supply keeps options limited for buyers, even though inventory has grown compared with a year ago.
Looking at this rolling three-month view, prices show modest upward pressure rather than big swings. The typical home value is up about 2% year over year, while the median list price has climbed more sharply, rising over 18% from a year ago as sellers test higher price points.
Activity has clearly picked up compared with last year, with homes sold increasing nearly 16% and new listings up about 17% year over year. Buyers still face a brisk pace, as the typical home sells in around three weeks and nearly 48% of sales close above the asking price, though that above-list share is lower than a year ago, hinting at slightly less intense bidding. Agent Pronto can connect both buyers and sellers with an agent who understands these trends and can help them navigate Ilchester’s market with confidence.

“My agent, Nisha Smithrick, was the ideal agent. We had tried to work with other Baltimore agents over the past year and they were terrible. Nisha was amazing from the get-go. She reached out immediately. She asked questions to understand our specific desires for my son's first home. She presented relevant listing within a day. She made herself available for appointments to fit our schedules. She showed us a great selection of homes. She followed up, gave her honest advice. She then was a great sounding board for creating an offer and negotiating with the seller. She was responsive and proactive through the whole process including to inspections and closing. She answered all our questions thoroughly and quickly. I highly recommend Nisha.”
