Information and statistics on the latest trends in the Hillsborough real estate market, updated for April 2026. *
Hillsborough is leaning toward sellers right now, with a seller’s market gauge of 11 and only 1.7 months of supply keeping conditions tight. With just 20 homes on the market and 12 new listings in February 2026, buyers face limited options even as typical home values sit around $437,500.
Price patterns show a mixed picture, which helps explain the seller tilt despite some softening. Typical home values are down 2.78% year over year and 4.27% month over month, yet the median list price jumped 25.61% to about $537,000 while half of recent sales closed above list and the average sale-to-list ratio was about 1.013.
Market pace has eased but still supports sellers, with homes spending a median of 43 days on market, down 8.51% from the prior month but up 79.17% over the past year. Inventory fell 28.57% month over month and is projected to drop to 16 homes in March, even as Hillsborough’s typical value trails Somerset County’s $585,000 level and is projected to slip to $427,750 while county values edge higher to $592,500. With pending sales down 17.39% year over year and new listings off 55.56%, both buyers and sellers can benefit from Agent Pronto’s help in finding an 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.

“Peggy Yanuzzelli was one of a kind. She worked diligently on the sale of my house. She was supportive and made me feel I was safe and secure with her work. I liked the fact that she was acting as a friend that I could trust. Excellent realtor.”
“It was a kind of long journey and Julia helped me a lot through it providing all the support and information I needed. The professionalism and the knowledgment of her work is the big asset of hers. I am very pleased with her work and care she gave me. It would be very hard to go through the whole process without her.”
“Working with Connie was a joy! She was professional, knowledgeable, and attentive. She made recommendations on how to present our house, which I believe greatly enhanced it attractiveness. She understood pricing in our area, and positioned our house for a reasonable sale. She also knew about local regulations (like the need for fire alarm inspection) and advised us to take care of them so the did not hold up closing. Finally she was readily available. If she could not answer our calls, she was very prompt in calling back, and she was always ready to listen to our questions. She made a very stressful time much more tolerable.”
“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.”

“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.”
