Bergen County real estate Market Report.
Information and statistics on the latest trends in the Bergen County real estate market, updated for April 2026. *
Inventory in Bergen County has tightened, with 1,676 homes on the market and levels down about 17% from last year. New listings have fallen even faster, dropping more than 40% year over year to 482 in February 2026. With fewer homes being listed and 539 properties going under contract, buyers are facing a leaner selection even as activity cools.
Pricing is adjusting to these conditions, with the typical home value around $700,000, down 6.35% from last year and projected to ease to about $683,250 next month. Sellers are still in a relatively strong spot, reflected in a seller’s market gauge of 31 and an average sale-to-list ratio just above 1.00, meaning many homes are still selling close to or slightly over asking.
Listing strategies are shifting as well, with the median list price at $749,000 in February and expected to dip toward $726,000, while about 6% of listings saw a price cut. Homes are taking longer to sell, with median days on market rising to 95, up more than 28% year over year, even though nearly 46% of sales are closing above the list price. Compared with the New Jersey state typical value of $540,200, Bergen County remains higher priced, so both buyers and sellers can benefit from Agent Pronto’s help in finding a local expert who understands these changing dynamics and can guide their next move.

“Working with Connie was a joy! She was professional, knowledgeable, and attentive. She made recommendations on how to present our house, which I believe greatly enhanced it attractiveness. She understood pricing in our area, and positioned our house for a reasonable sale. She also knew about local regulations (like the need for fire alarm inspection) and advised us to take care of them so the did not hold up closing. Finally she was readily available. If she could not answer our calls, she was very prompt in calling back, and she was always ready to listen to our questions. She made a very stressful time much more tolerable.”
