Market gauge is calculated using active listings and pending sales from the most recently available reporting period (Jun 2026 - Aug 2026).
Inventory and contract activity in Forked River have tightened in the latest rolling three-month view. Active listings are down more than 10% year over year while new listings have fallen by about a quarter, and months of supply has dropped sharply to just over two months, signaling fewer options for buyers.
Pricing has responded by holding firm even as the pace of sales has shifted. The typical home value is up roughly 9% from a year ago, and about 40% of recent sales closed above the asking price, with the average sale-to-list ratio sitting just over 101%.
Speed has also changed notably, with homes now taking a median of 25 days to go under contract, a slightly faster pace than a year ago despite fewer new listings and softer pending sales. With conditions tilted toward sellers but meaningful decisions on both sides of the table, Agent Pronto can connect buyers and sellers with an agent who understands these trends and can guide them through their next move.

“We went online searching for the best realtor in the area for houses at the Jersey shore. Boy, did we get the best! Camille went out of her way to make sure that she addressed all of our questions, was very prompt in getting back to us, and showed us a great selection of homes in a competitive market . Would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a home in the area! She will be our Realtor at the Jersey shore forever.”
“On a lazy Saturday morning over a cups of coffee, my wife and I saw a listing on Zillow that interested us. Our interest was further peaked that afternoon when we happened to drive by the property on the way to visiting a friend. We told our friends about the property and they recommended Susan, who they used to represent them several years prior. We wanted to see the property so we called Susan who quickly arranged an appointment to see it on Monday morning. We met at the property and Susan explained to us the listing history and some of the history of the house itself. When my wife and I decided to make an offer, Susan clearly explained the process and assisted us through the negotiation, contract signing, and the inspection. She even helped us in securing financing and saw the process through closing. Susan truly made the purchase as seemless as possible. She is a true professional and we would not hesitate to use her again or recommend her to family and friends.”
