Bright MLS recently analyzed nearly 450,000 home sales across the seven states in the Mid Atlantic region to determine sales price variances of properties marketed on the MLS to comparable properties that sold off MLS during 2019 and 2020.  74% were identified as being marketed and sold on-MLS and 26% were identified as sold-off MLS. The median sale price for on-MLS properties was 16.89 % more than the median sale price for homes sold off-MLS.  The study also found homes marketed by a for sale by owner apps or an office exclusive sale typically took longer to sell and 63% of them ultimately ended up listed on the MLS.  When a property is entered into Bright-MLS it exposes the home to nearly 95,000 real estate professionals who are members of the service.

Besides picking crabs with Natty Boh, one of my favorite summertime things to grill is "Beer Can Chicken" aka "Beer Butt Chicken".To start you will need a 4 or 5 lb whole chicken which is cooked upright with a can of beer as it's base. Natty Boh is my beer of choice here in "the land of pleasant living".    STEP 1: Using a 4 or 5 lb whole chicken remove neck and giblets from the cavity then  wash and pat dry.  Once dry, rub the bird down using about 2 table spoons of extra virgin olive oil. Keeping with the Maryland theme, I use Baltimore's McCormick Montreal chicken to season.  STEP 2: Pre heat the grill using medium- high heat. Step 3: Lower chicken onto a half filled can of Natty Boh Step 4: Place on grill , for a 4 to 5 lb bird cooking time runs 1 to 1 1/2 hour after an hour check t... 07/14/2021
