When is this due?
A two-story traditional craftsman-style house with a brick lower level and shake-style gable siding, a covered front porch with stone-based columns, and a fresh green lawn.

Maryland is one of the pricier states in the country - a Bureau of Economic Analysis regional price index of 105.0 against the 100 national average, about 5% higher overall - which is exactly what the starting home price below is adjusted for, instead of a flat national default.

Maryland taxes income at graduated rates up to about 5.75%, plus county-level tax this estimate doesn't include.

That makes it the 8th most expensive state in the country by this measure, out of 51 - worth knowing before assuming a national-average mortgage payment applies here.
