Peterstown real estate Market Report.
Information and statistics on the latest trends in the Peterstown real estate market, updated for May 2026. *
Peterstown is currently tilted toward sellers, with the market gauge at 18 indicating clear advantages for those listing homes. Typical home values sit around $665,000, a bit above Elizabeth’s $640,000, even after a sharp 31.44% drop over the past year that has cooled prices from their previous peak.
Driving this seller-leaning setup, inventory is still limited at just 14 homes, even though that’s up 40% month over month and 180% compared with last year. Homes are taking about 62 days to go under contract, which is 18.42% faster than a year ago, and roughly 14.29% of recent sales closed above list with an average sale-to-list ratio near 0.99, signaling buyers are negotiating but not seeing large discounts.
Looking ahead to April 2026, typical home values are projected to edge down to about $654,475 while the median list price is expected to tick up to roughly $737,500 as inventory nudges higher to around 16 homes. With new listings up 142.86% year over year and pending sales rising 14.29%, both buyers and sellers have more options and activity, and Agent Pronto can connect them with a local agent who understands these shifting dynamics.
Market gauge is calculated based on the the number of active listings divided by home sales over the most recently available reporting period.

“Tina was absolutely amazing throughout our entire home buying process. She was always professional, responsive, and truly cared about helping us every step of the way. Thanks to her, everything went smoothly and we felt supported from beginning to end. We are so grateful for all her help. Highly recommend!”
“It was a pleasure to work with Eugene while selling my mom's house! I knew it would not be an enjoyable process, but he helped make it as easy as possible.”
“To whom it my concern, It is our immense pleasure to recommend Viola Salvato as a real estate agent for any individual or family searching for the ideal home. Viola had an initial meeting with us regarding our specific needs in a home as well as our budgetary limits. She is highly talented and immediately found us numerous listings of homes. She did not waste our time with homes that were not in line with our needs. Viola is a master with contract negotiation she came up with a deal that was good for us as well as making the seller happy. She knows the area like the back of her hand and there is nothing that escapes her attention when it comes to properties for sale in this area. We found Viola to be a highly attentive agent, almost as if we were her only customers, although we know that was not the case. She returned all phone calls and emails the same day. We never felt neglected or unimportant. She also is highly personable with an engaging personality. She is hands down the best!”
“Tuve una experiencia muy agradable buscando casa asta que la encontramos le agradezco muchísimo a Rosse Méndez que Dios la bendiga”
“Travis is the best. He loves his job.”
“Very professional and knowledgeable.... always available and excellent response time.”
“Martin's support and guidance made possible the sale of my property in very challenging circumstances. His professional demeanor was critical to land the closing.”
“My agent was Lucy Phelan at Keller Williams, and I had a great experience working with both Lucy and her brother Richard. Both had provided me with their expert advice, they would take extra steps to educate you and walk you thru the home shopping process. They would work on my schedule, try their best to answer all my questions and would point me to the right direction when I was looking for the lender, inspector, lawyer, etc. As a home buyer in this "Bidding War" market, most of my offers were turned down; however, both Lucy and Rich have continuously provided me encouragement to keep trying and looking. I cannot remember how many houses we have looked together...and when I was not able to look at the houses in person, they would video call me to conduct a virtual home showing. In general, they are exceptionally good with people skill, nice/friendly people to talk with and they show care on other things then just home buying. I would like to work with them again in the future and would recommend them to any home buyer/seller.”
“Audra Loccisano worked closely with my siblings and I to sell our parents’ house. She really knew the local Rahway market, as well as needed services and the city building ordinances. Audra had great interpersonal skills, too, and kept in constant communication. And she was especially expert at pricing strategy and negotiations. We were all very satisfied with Audra’s services, with a fast sale at a better than expected price. We can recommend her without reservation.”
