Market gauge is calculated using active listings and pending sales from the most recently available reporting period (Jul 2026 - Sep 2026).
Over the rolling three-month period ending in September 2026, Highland Park’s typical home value rose about 4 percent compared with a year earlier, reaching roughly $615,000. At the same time, median list prices were only slightly higher than last year, suggesting values have grown faster than asking prices.
Inventory conditions have shifted notably year over year, with active listings up about 15 percent while months of supply has more than doubled to just over three months. Even with this added supply, homes are selling a bit faster than a year ago as median days on market fell from 74 to 63 days in the latest three-month window.
Another key change over the past year is the negotiation landscape, as the share of homes selling above list price declined from about 60 percent to 44 percent and the average sale-to-list ratio edged just above 100 percent. Buyers and sellers who want to navigate these evolving conditions can turn to Agent Pronto to connect with an experienced local agent who understands Highland Park’s market dynamics from both sides of the table.
Highland Park offers residents a walkable, family‑friendly community with strong schools, diverse dining and local shops, plentiful parks and greenspace, and easy access to nearby cultural and employment opportunities.
Highland Park offers small town convenience with quick access to major job centers. Located across the river from New Brunswick and close to Rutgers University, it appeals to commuters, faculty, and long term residents who value walkability and reliable transit. NJ Transit’s New Brunswick Station and nearby highways make trips to New York City, Newark, and Middlesex County employment hubs straightforward.
Daily life here is practical and connected. The tree lined downtown along Raritan Avenue features local restaurants such as Pithari Taverna and cafes like OQ Coffee Co. within an easy stroll of most neighborhoods. Groceries, pharmacies, and services cluster close together, so many errands can be done on foot or by bike. Families value the walkable Highland Park Public Schools campus and access to nearby institutions like Rutgers University.
Recreation is a strong suit. The riverfront Donaldson Park offers ballfields, playgrounds, dog areas, and scenic walking paths along the Raritan, while Johnson Park sits just over the bridge. Local programs run through the borough’s Recreation Department support year round activities for all ages.
Whether you are weighing condo living near downtown or selling a long owned single family home, an agent who understands Highland Park’s blocks, school streets, and commuter options can make decisions clearer and timing smoother. Agent Pronto connects buyers and sellers with local real estate professionals who know the details that reduce stress at every step.

“I had the opportunity to work with mr counts to sell my home in Mount Holly. He was great and made the whole processes honestly enjoyable. We were able to get a good offer accepted after 1 weekend and closed in 45 days. He came through for my family and I we couldn't be happier.”
“Virendra did an excellent job helping us find our new home. He has an outstanding knowledge on the market and never hesitates to answer questions. He is very friendly and nice.”
“Used Dean Terry for a home purchase, he went above and beyond on all fronts and I will be using him as my realtor moving forward. He kept me informed on what was going on, every step of the process was smooth and Dean and provided great insight.”
“It was a pleasure working with Mark and his team. Mark always responded, easy to reach even when he was on vacation. He walked us through everything in a way that was easy to understand and took away the anxiety of the process. He was patient with us and worked well with us.”
“We had a great experience working with Charlie. He was professional, knowledgeable, responsive and incredibly helpful throughout the whole process. He was always patient and willing to answer my questions. Thanks Charlie!”

“We are truly so grateful for Caryn and everything she did to help our family find a rental home. This was not an easy search for us. We faced quite a few challenges along the way, and there were moments when we honestly wondered if we were going to find a place in time. But Caryn never gave up on us. She worked so hard and was incredibly persistent in helping us find a home. She was constantly communicating, following up, searching for options, and doing everything she could to help. What touched us the most was that she continued to be there for us even after hours and even while she was out of state cheering on and supporting her own children during their competitions. She still made time for us and kept working on our behalf. That kind of dedication meant more to us than she probably realizes. Caryn never made us feel like we were just another rental client. She genuinely cared about our family and understood how important it was for us to find a place we could call home. She was patient with us, reassuring when things didn’t work out, and kept encouraging us to keep going when the search became overwhelming. After everything we went through, finally finding our rental home was such a huge relief. We are so thankful Caryn was there with us through the entire process. She truly went above and beyond, and we will always remember how hard she worked for our family. Caryn, thank you from the bottom of our hearts. Your kindness, patience, persistence, and dedication made such a difference during a very stressful time in our lives. We are so grateful we found you and had you in our corner. And when the time comes for us to purchase our own home, you will absolutely be the first person we call. We would be honored to have you help us with that next chapter too. If you’re looking for a realtor who will genuinely care about helping you find a place to call home, we highly recommend Caryn. She truly goes above and beyond.”
“The most positive experience I could have possibly imagined! There's really no words to describe how wonderful it was to work with Frank. Selling an older house can always be a challenge and there will always be tons of curveballs and questions along the way. The communication was above and beyond anything I could have hoped for! He handled all the challenges with grace and enthusiasm. His knowledge of the area as well as his understanding of the market made him the perfect person to work with. Selling a house can usually be a very difficult and sensitive step in a family's history and I was able to rest easy during it all knowing that all the details and difficulties were being thought of daily by Frank. He also helped suggest services to help move things along during the process (cleanouts/donations/etc). Couldn't recommend him any more!”
“Richard represented himself in a professional manner and really helped us out when we needed it the most. He is a young ambitious gentleman and will get the job done for you. Please don’t hesitate to use Richard as your real estate agent. You won’t be disappointed. Thank you, Richard for all you did for me and my family.”
“My experience with Raphaela was amazing . She was very helpful communicative and knowledgeable, when it came to finding my apartment. I highly recommend her to help you find your home.”
“Amazing realtor!! Jacky helped us find our dreamed house in Hopatcong, NJ!! She is a kind, sweet and responsible person. She always went beyond to ensure that our request and desires were met. Jacky responds quickly to messages and calls and is always there when needed. She is also a great mediator between the different parties during the home purchase process due to her excellent communication skills. Picking her was the best decision, my family and I are beyond grateful for everything she did for us . Words are not enough.”
“We had an excellent experience working with Michael to sell our home. From the very beginning, he was incredibly communicative and always kept us informed every step of the way. He consistently provided information in a timely manner and made sure we always knew what to expect throughout the process. His marketing strategy was excellent! We felt that his knowledge and expertise played a big part in achieving such a quick and successful sale. Most importantly, he was honest, transparent, and professional throughout the entire process, which gave us complete confidence and peace of mind. We are extremely grateful for all of his hard work and would highly recommend him to anyone looking to buy or sell a home! He truly went above and beyond to provide a great experience! Thank you, Michael! Michael and Zenny Bergendorff”
“Allie helped me assist my aging parents in selling their home, which they built decades ago. Because of the attachment it felt like an impossible goal to me for many years. I genuinely believe we could not have done this successfully with a different agent. Allie had the right combination of all the characteristics we needed to help my parents trust the process and move forward. Many agents are knowledgeable and experienced - that should be a baseline expectation when choosing a someone. However, it’s hard to find someone who also brings cultural sensitivity, integrity, and interpersonal skills on top of her wealth of insight. She knew exactly how to talk to them despite the language barrier, hold their dignity through a vulnerable journey, validate big emotions, support their wishes with each step, all while expeditiously moving things along when they needed to be done. She was always available around the clock and very responsive to all issues and questions that arose as they inevitably do. Some agents are very good, but some are truly called to this profession. I’m so grateful that we had Allie by our side during this incredibly challenging season. Highly recommend!”
“A few days ago, I officially purchased my first home in Manville, NJ — a two-family home! This is such a special and meaningful milestone for me and my family. Buying a home has been a dream of ours, and seeing it finally become a reality feels incredibly exciting and emotional. Although the process, can sometimes be stressful and overwhelming, I’m so grateful that we had the right people by our side throughout the entire journey. A huge thank you!!! to Yogui and Anna for guiding us every step of the way with professionalism, patience, knowledge, and genuine care. They were always available to answer our questions, explain everything clearly, and help us feel supported whenever we faced challenges or had concerns. Their dedication, kindness, and commitment made such a big difference during this important process. We truly appreciate all the time and effort they put into helping us find the perfect home and making this experience as smooth as possible. Thank you both so much!!!!! for helping make this dream come true for our family! We are incredibly grateful and will always remember the important role you played in helping us purchase our first home.”
“Chip managed our out-of-state process seamlessly. He expertly handled everything from day-to-day administrative tasks to inspections, landscaping, and sewage issues. His oversight made a complex situation incredibly easy for us.”
“My journey with Justin began when my parents bought the house that I now sold. I was the Executrix to my Parents estate. I knew I needed a compassionate but hardworking relator during a very difficult time. Justin hit all the marks. My brother and I needed some grieving time and Justin totally understood that. He came over gave us a listing price and time frame that hit all the marks. It was early December when our father passed and I just wasn’t ready and Justin advised us that the market would be better early spring. That time frame was exactly what we needed and exactly what the market dictated. The house was under contract in about two months. His team got us many showings, fabulous turn outs at our open houses and multiple offers. He never over promised. He was realistic, professional and compassionate which was exactly what I needed. He was always available to answer any questions and gave solid advice. I would recommend Justin and the Cresi Group team a million times over. He is the no brainer choice.”
“This was my family’s first time buying a home, and Melissa was amazing at helping us navigate a very competitive market. She was supportive, knowledgeable, responsive, flexible and made buying a home in Bloomfield look easy. As an anxious buyer, Melissa helped us stay cool, calm, collected and put our best foot forward when submitting offers. I highly recommend Melissa if you’re looking to buy a home in Bloomfield, Montclair, Essex county area. We will definitely be reaching out to her for our next home!”
“????? Five Stars — My Go-To Broker, Every Time! This is now the second time I’ve worked with her to find an apartment, and both experiences have been outstanding. She clearly listens and remembers what matters to me, because both times she found places that were exactly right, no wasted showings, no wasted time. Her communication is always fast, honest, and upfront. She never pushes a listing that doesn’t fit and always gives me the real pros and cons so I can make the best decision. Her market knowledge and professionalism make what could be a stressful process feel completely manageable. The fact that I keep coming back says it all she’s earned my trust completely. She’s already my go-to for my next apartment or home search, and I recommend her without hesitation to anyone who wants a broker who’s responsive, knowledgeable, and genuinely on your side.”
“Joseph did an outstanding job as our agent. We had what felt like 24/7 access to his extensive knowledge and expertise! I highly recommend him to anyone looking for a new home!”
“From managing my property while it was rented to helping me successfully sell it, Eiesha was professional, responsive, and always had my best interests in mind. They made every step of the process easy and stress-free, kept me informed throughout, and went above and beyond to ensure everything was handled smoothly. If you’re looking for someone knowledgeable, trustworthy, and dedicated, she is the person to call.”
