Montgomery County Real Estate - Do your Due Diligence

When considering purchasing real estate (both residential and commercial) in Montgomery County Maryland, you want to be an educated consumer!  Not that realtors or brokers are out there to cheat you out of your money but always double check listing information by doing your own due diligence.  There's a lot of FREE information out on the web and I HIGHLY recommend you take advantage of it.  If you're a serious buyer or active investor, I'd also bookmark these sites for future use.

• Montgomery County Public School Assignment Tool - This is the BEST way to figure out what school district the MoCo home is in.  Realtors are NOT required to tell you what school district the house is in (FYI).
• Maryland Department of Assessments and Taxation - This site will tell you recent sales information, assessment information, zoning, area, etc.
• Montgomery County Property Tax Information - This site will tell you what the property tax is for the home, billing status, etc.
