What Bel Air sellers
should know

  • Bel Air has 52 designated historic properties

    The town's Historic Preservation Commission reviews plans for renovation, additions or demolition of its 52 locally designated historic sites. If your home is one of them, call the town Planning Department at 410-638-4540 before major pre-sale work, so the review fits your listing date. The town also publishes a guide on repairing old siding, windows, roofs and porches.

  • Aberdeen Proving Ground drives local demand

    The town's Comprehensive Plan says Aberdeen Proving Ground provides about 16,000 jobs, draws military contractors and skilled workers, and that an estimated 60% to 70% of its workforce lives in the Greater Bel Air area. If your buyer is starting work at APG, ask about their start date early, since it often drives the closing date.

How selling works
in Maryland

  1. 1Tell us about your home
  2. 2See both numbers side by side
  3. 3Pick your path and your closing date

Behind on payments? In Maryland, your lender must send a notice of intent to foreclose at least 45 days before filing, and owner-occupants can ask for foreclosure mediation. There is often more time than it feels like.

Frequently asked questions

How fast can you close in Bel Air?

When a cash sale is the right fit, we can close in as little as 7 days, or on the date you choose. Listing with an agent usually takes longer: Bel Air homes have recently sold in about 24 days, plus time to close.

What property tax rate applies inside the Town of Bel Air?

You pay both the Town and Harford County. The Town's rate is $0.54 per $100 of assessed value, and Harford County's FY 27 rate is $0.8413. Harford County's separate $0.1366 rate applies only outside Bel Air, Aberdeen and Havre de Grace, so it is not on a Bel Air bill. The State rate is added on the same bill.

Can I sell a designated historic property in Bel Air as it is?

Yes. Bel Air has 52 locally designated historic properties, and the Town's Historic Preservation Commission reviews plans for renovation, additions or demolition on those sites, which can add time to repairs. We'll look at the house as it is and show you a cash offer next to listing.
