Information and statistics on the latest trends in the Garfield real estate market, updated for May 2026. *

In March 2026, the typical Garfield home was valued around $675,000, with a median list price near $599,000. Homes spent a median of 103 days on the market, and with about 3 months of supply and only 5.1 percent of listings cutting prices, conditions tilted toward sellers.

Month over month, typical values jumped about 15.4 percent, inventory rose 14.7 percent to 39 homes, and days on market fell about 17.6 percent, while list prices dipped roughly 14.3 percent. Looking to April 2026, Garfield’s typical home value is projected near $720,000, with inventory edging up to about 41 homes and the median list price around $549,000. In this seller’s market, Agent Pronto can connect both buyers and sellers with an agent who understands these shifting conditions and local pricing trends.
Market gauge is calculated based on the the number of active listings divided by home sales over the most recently available reporting period.
Garfield offers residents a welcoming, community-focused environment with convenient shopping, parks, good schools, and easy access to regional transit.
Garfield offers a distinct blend of small-city familiarity and urban access that sets it apart from nearby options like Passaic and Paterson. Framed by the Passaic River, it has long been a first stop for new arrivals to the region, which gives local streets a diverse, multilingual energy while still feeling close knit and predictable day to day.
Residents rely on well used public spaces like Drosdick Park and the riverfront walkway, along with recreational programs coordinated through the city’s Recreation Department. Families appreciate access to the Garfield Public School District and community events at Garfield High School, plus resources at the Garfield Public Library. Dining spans Polish bakeries, Latin American restaurants, and classic pizzerias, while easy connections to NJ Transit rail and bus service keep daily commutes into nearby Newark and Jersey City manageable.
For longtime homeowners, understanding how specific blocks near parks, schools, or transit influence value is key before listing. For buyers, competition for well kept multifamily homes and starter houses means preparation and timing matter as much as location. Agent Pronto connects you with a Garfield real estate agent who understands local streets, current demand, and upcoming opportunities, helping both buyers and sellers move confidently when the time is right.
