This video compares what a $600,000 budget can buy in Washington, D.C., versus Montgomery County, Maryland. In D.C.'s Brookland neighborhood, buyers can expect a modern, luxury-style condo with high-end finishes and a walkable urban lifestyle. In Clarksburg, Maryland, that same budget gets a larger townhome with more space, suburban amenities, and a quieter atmosphere. The video also explores property taxes, walkability, access to public transit, and market competitiveness. While D.C. offers lower property taxes and more room for negotiation, Maryland’s market is more competitive, with homes selling quickly due to high demand.
