Monthly data for the latest available year.
Monthly supply and activity totals for the latest available year.
Market gauge is calculated using active listings and pending sales from the most recently available reporting period (May 2026).
Inventory in Bergen County has been building, giving buyers a bit more to choose from. Active listings rose more than 11 percent from April to May and are up over 5 percent compared with last year, reaching 3,522 homes. Pending sales also increased month over month, suggesting that many of these new options are quickly moving into contract.
Home prices are edging higher but not surging. The typical home value in May was about $788,000, up nearly 5 percent from a year earlier, while the median list price is also about 5 percent higher than last year even after a small dip since April. Compared with the state overall, where the median sale price is around $563,000, Bergen County is operating at a significantly higher price point.
Conditions on the ground still favor sellers, but with some signs of normalization. Months of supply climbed to 5.2, almost double last year’s level, yet homes that do sell are moving in a median of 63 days and roughly 60 percent are closing above their list price with an average sale-to-list ratio above 104 percent. Whether you are a buyer trying to navigate rising inventory and firm pricing or a seller aiming to capture strong demand, Agent Pronto can connect you with a Bergen County agent who understands this market’s nuances.
Bergen County offers residents a dynamic mix of suburban neighborhoods, excellent schools, abundant parks and recreation, a thriving cultural scene, and convenient access to major urban centers.
Bergen County offers a distinct mix of close commuter access to Manhattan and a strong sense of local identity that sets it apart from neighboring counties. From the walkable downtown of Ridgewood to the riverfront parks along the Hudson in communities like Fort Lee, each town feels like its own small community while still sharing countywide amenities and services.
Residents appreciate the county’s extensive park system, highlighted by Overpeck County Park with its trails, sports fields, and waterfront views, and Van Saun County Park in Paramus, home to the popular Bergen County Zoo. Cultural options include the Bergen Performing Arts Center in Englewood, while neighborhoods from Hackensack to Teaneck offer diverse dining, shopping, and community events.
Families are drawn to strong public schools, extensive youth programs, and active local libraries and recreation departments. Commuters value multiple NJ Transit rail and bus options and proximity to major highways and regional airports, which keeps demand for homes steady across a variety of price points and property types.
Whether you already live in Bergen County or are considering a move from nearby areas like Essex County, timing and preparation are crucial in this competitive market. Agent Pronto can connect both buyers and sellers with a real estate professional who understands local neighborhoods, pricing trends, and how to position you for success.
