What $300,000 Will Buy You In… Rockville, MD

JLP over at AllThingsFinancial commented on the price of homes in Houston, TX–specifically, how much house $300,000 will buy you.
Then Jim at Blueprint for Financial Prosperity detailed what $300,000 gets you in Howard County, MD–just one county over from me! Not surprising, you’ll get more for your money in Houston.
So what does $300,000 get you in Rockville, MD, a northern suburb of our nation’s capital? Obviously it’s the best deal out of all of them: you get a magic invisible house!

Indeed, $300k will get you an empty plot of land in Rockville, MD. And as you move closer to Washington, DC, $300k won’t even get you a mailbox.

Ha! This one is funny! I’m in MD too so I can vouche for this one. You’ll get NADA for $300,000 around here.

Yep. That’s about right for NoVA too. However, you can get yourself a nice overpriced 1 bdrm condo in Clarendon, only to watch its price plummet next year.

[...] We’ve talked before about what kind of home $300,000 will buy you in various parts of the country, but one home up for sale in Corona Del Mar, California, would run you that much just for a single month’s mortgage interest. [...]
