The state of Maryland fell far short of national home price increases in July, CoreLogic says. Maryland’s home prices increased a paltry 1.2 percent year-over-year — 4.8 percent less than the national average. The Washington D.C. metro area, which included Virginia cities Arlington and Alexandria and West Virginia, saw home prices increase just 2.5 percent since July 2015.
