Market gauge is calculated using active listings and pending sales from the most recently available reporting period (Apr 2026 - Jun 2026).
In Forked River, a rolling three-month view shows inventory and activity both on the upswing. Active listings are up about 20 percent year over year to 76, while new listings have jumped more than 50 percent and pending sales are up roughly a third, signaling more homes flowing from listing to contract.
Pricing has responded by moving higher over the past year, even with more options available. The typical home value is up just over 7 percent year over year and the median list price has climbed a bit more than 10 percent, suggesting sellers still have room to test the upper end of the market.
Speed and negotiation dynamics underline that this is still a seller-leaning environment, though with some balance emerging. Homes are taking a median of 39 days to go under contract, months of supply sits at a relatively lean 2.7, and about one-third of sales close above list price with an average sale-to-list ratio just under 100 percent, so both buyers and sellers can benefit from Agent Pronto helping them find the right local agent to navigate these conditions.

“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.”
“I love how easy it is to communicate with Lisa. If she's not one step ahead of me asking a question and she having the answer then she responds quickly when I leave a message.

He developed an excellent pricing and marketing strategy that resulted in my house selling quickly and for above the asking price. Throughout the entire process, he kept me informed, answered all of my questions promptly, and made everything as smooth and stress-free as possible. His attention to detail, strong negotiation skills, and commitment to his clients truly set him apart. I couldn’t be happier with the outcome and highly recommend Matthew Tully to anyone looking to buy or sell a home. The fact that I chose to work with him a second time speaks for itself. Thank you, Matthew, for another outstanding job!”
