Brian's Take
What the row house numbers are actually saying
Every metric on this page is row houses only: fee simple and rowhouse condo, sold through BrightMLS. It is not a general market overview. Row houses price, trade and appreciate differently from the broader condo and detached markets, so they get their own report.
A 19-day citywide median hides a range from 0 days in Crestwood to 69 in Kalorama Triangle. A $1.1M city median hides a $2.0M gap between Trinidad and Kalorama Heights. The number that matters is the one for your neighborhood and your property type.
The comparison tool below shows exactly that. Pick the neighborhoods you care about and see how their row house markets stack up on every metric that drives a decision.
"The buyers and sellers who make the best decisions are the ones who understand their specific market, not the DC market. Your neighborhood is your market. Your block is your market. Everything else is noise."

How long do row houses take to sell in DC?

Over the long run, the places that kept appreciating are the ones where walking got easier, transit got closer and owners outnumbered investors. Capitol Hill, Shaw and Logan Circle hold among the strongest long-run records in the city.
Where does the row house data come from?
All market data on this page is sourced from BrightMLS via Compass and reflects row house transactions only: fee simple rowhouses and rowhouse condos. Median values are calculated from closed sales over a trailing 12-month period. Year-over-year comparisons use the prior 12-month row house median as the baseline.

How often is this data updated?
Row home data refreshes when a new BrightMLS export lands. Mortgage rates update from the FRED API at each site build. The "as of" date on this page is the date of the last BrightMLS refresh.
