MARKET AREA UPDATE Report as of: 1Q 2Q 3Q 4Q Year: 2013 Market Area (City, State): Washington DC Metropolitan Area Provided by (Company / Companies): LONG & FOSTER REAL ESTATE, INC. What are the most significant trends in your current real estate market? (Attach addenda, charts, graphs, etc. as appropriate) * Activity in the Washington DC Metro Region continues to be steady and strong as we enter fall. However, the Federal Shutdown and debt ceiling situation, even after being temporarily resolved, will no doubt show its full impact in the coming months in our region. During the Shutdown itself, mortgage lending was greatly affected, especially FHA loans. It limited the pool of buyers and made sellers anxious to accept any offer with any sort of loan contingency. Many would be sellers decided to postpone listing their property altigether. Define Market Area: Urban (city limit area only) Metro Area (as defined by MSA) Other: Please explain: *VA: Alexandria City, Arlington County, Fairfax City, Fairfax County, Falls Church City. MD: Montgomery County, Prince George's County.

Thousands of dollars in revenue were lost from the closure of monuments, parks, museums, etc. During the furloughs, retail spending dropped dramatically and even after the issue was temporarily resolved, people are still nervous about what will happen in the next couple of months when the debt ceiling issue comes up again.

Washington, D.C. Metro Area September 2013 Housing Market Update Median price increases for all jurisdictions in the region Double-digit growth for new listings for the sixth straight month Rockville, MD (October 10, 2013) The following analysis of the Washington, D.C. Metro Area housing market has been prepared by RealEstate Business Intelligence (RBI) and the GMU Center for Regional Analysis and is based on September 2013 MRIS housing data. OVERVIEW Activity in the Washington DC Metro Region continues to be steady and strong as we enter fall. Sales increased in September as compared to this time last year. Pending contracts also increased, but at a slower rate than earlier this year. The increase in pending contracts was driven by condos and detached homes. Total inventory continues to decline, but as in prior months, the pace of the decline is slowing. Both townhomes and condos had year-over-year increases in active listings, but were offset by the decline in detached home listings. Median sales prices reached their highest September-level in six years likely as a result of strong demand and tight supply. Condo properties led the growth in closed sales while detached homes had the highest increase in median sales price. Favorable market conditions continue to cause new sellers to enter the market, resulting in a 16.5 percent increase in listings from this time last year. This is the sixth consecutive double-digit increase for this indicator. Homes are selling quickly; the median-days-on-market was 17 days in September, which is the lowest September-level since the peak of the housing boom in 2005. Federal uncertainty may play a stronger role over the coming months as the impact of the Federal Shutdown and debt ceiling are felt.

CLOSED SALES Sixth consecutive month of double-digit sales growth for the region. There were 3,651 sales in September in the Washington DC Metro Area, 12.1 percent more than a year ago, and the highest September-level since 2009. The number of sales decreased 21.0 percent from last month, which is in line with seasonal patterns. The 10- year average August to September change is -17.4 percent. Condos had the strongest sales growth of the property segments, increasing 19.2 percent from this time last year. The increase in condo sales from last year accounted for 41.0 percent of the increase in all sales. Strong demand has driven overall home prices up significantly over the past five years in the region, Jonathan Hill, President of RealEstate Business Intelligence, said of this surge in condo sales. The lower price-points and smaller unit size of condos may be attractive to first time homebuyers and investors, contributing to the strong gains in this segment. Townhome sales increased 10.2 percent from last September, the seventh consecutive month of double-digit growth for this segment. Detached home sales increased by 9.6 percent from this time last year. NEW CONTRACTS Slight increase in contracts driven by condos and single-family homes. There were 4,260 new contracts signed in September, 1.5 percent, or 65 contracts, more than this time last year. This is the highest September total in eight years. New contracts fell 6.1 percent from August, which is in line with the ten-year average August to September change of -6.8 percent. The year-over-year increase in new contracts was driven by condo properties and single-family homes. The 1,196 new contracts for condo properties represented an increase of 7.8 percent, or 86 more contracts. The 1,988 new contracts for detached homes represented a 2.4% increase. Contract activity for townhomes actually fell by 5.6 percent to 1,087 contracts, 65 fewer than September 2012. INVENTORY Increases in active listings for condo and townhomes; detached home inventory continues to decline. There were 9,340 active listings in the DC Metro Area at the end of September, a decrease of 1.8 percent, or 174 listings, from this time last year. Detached homes were the only property segment that had fewer listings compared to this time last year, however, with an increase of 3.9 percent.
