Year over year, Hunterdon County’s typical home value is up about 8 percent, outpacing the New Jersey average gain of just over 2 percent. Active listings have climbed roughly 10 percent from last September, while homes sold are down about 6 percent, suggesting more options but slightly softer closed activity. Months of supply has risen to 2.6 and is up more than 50 percent from a year ago, yet conditions still lean toward a seller’s market.
Looking at September 2026 specifically, the typical home value sits around $621,000, while the median list price is slightly higher at about $641,000. Homes are selling close to asking, with an average sale-to-list ratio just above 101 percent and nearly 47 percent of properties closing above list price.
Inventory is building month over month, with active listings up more than 8 percent and new listings up about 25 percent compared with August. At the same time, sales volume dropped sharply from the prior month, and median days on market edged down to 22 days, indicating well-priced homes still move quickly. With Hunterdon County priced above the statewide median and inventory tightening less than the New Jersey average, local dynamics can be nuanced. Buyers and sellers can both benefit from an experienced Hunterdon County agent, and Agent Pronto can help match them with someone who knows this market well.
