Key Findings

  1. The neighborhood's primary market indicator, the median sold price, is 685,000, signaling the realized transaction level for recent SFR and condo sales in 08902 and providing the best anchor for pricing decisions.
  2. The median listing price is 662,500, which sits below the median sold price of 685,000 and may indicate seller optimism is being met or exceeded by buyer offers during negotiation rather than listings setting market ceilings.
  3. Market velocity shows a prolonged selling timeline: the median days on market is 339, which, despite a hot market temperature and up price year-over-year trend, suggests slower time-to-contract and potential pricing friction for some listings.
  4. Macroeconomic and rental context is mixed: elevated interest rate pressure is present while rents are trending up; the median market rent is 2,675, and the median price per square foot is 315 — together these data points suggest continued price appreciation potential but with financing headwinds that may moderate buyer urgency.
