Key Findings

  1. Median sold price: $1,618,950 is the primary indicator of realized market value for Franklin Lakes and suggests pricing is anchored above typical suburban mid-market levels; given the gap to the median listing price, sellers should expect negotiation cycles before achieving asking price and price guidance should reflect recent transaction levels.

  2. Median days on market: 330 points to materially slower sales velocity and suggests pricing friction—list agents and sellers should plan longer marketing windows and consider targeted price adjustments or staged improvements to align offers with buyer expectations.

  3. Median listing price: $3,099,000 versus the realized sale benchmark signals a divergence between seller expectations and closed transactions; brokers should emphasize the median sold price in comps when advising sellers and underwrite offers using recent sold prices to avoid overpricing.

  4. Market context indicators show price year-over-year trend: up, market temperature: neutral, rent year-over-year trend: up, and interest rate pressure: moderate; this mix suggests steady price support but balanced transaction dynamics, so pricing strategies should be cautious and data-driven rather than aggressive, while investors may find rental growth supportive of buy-and-hold cases.

Key Findings

  1. median sold price remains the primary indicator of market value and recent transaction activity in Franklin Lakes; with the market temperature classified as neutral, recent closed transactions should be prioritized over asking prices when setting expectations.

  2. median price per square foot — 420 indicates premium pricing relative to many suburban NJ submarkets; coupled with a year-over-year price trend of up, sellers can expect sustained price support but should be mindful of segment-specific softness in the luxury tier.

  3. median market rent — 3,455 is rising alongside rents year-over-year (rent YoY trend is up), which supports investor interest in well-priced condominium and single-family rental conversions but requires analysis of local operating costs first.

  4. relatively constrained active supply appears to be supporting current pricing, yet transaction velocity has slowed compared with prior periods and interest rate pressure is moderate, which may increase time-to-contract and create pricing friction for higher-end listings.
