A Balanced Year: The Shaw Housing Market, By the Numbers

With the fall housing market in full swing, UrbanTurf is taking a look at the neighborhood markets around the DC region. Today, we head over to Shaw.
Shaw is a neighborhood where the for-sale housing stock breaks down fairly evenly between condos and townhomes, which is represented in 2019 sales where 41 percent of transactions were condo sales. Median home prices were up a bit overall in the neighborhood, with three-bedroom townhome prices popping the most. Overall, Shaw has a more balanced market than other inventory-starved DC neighborhoods, which means that buyers have a little more choice and leverage. Below are some statistics about the Shaw market.
