Market gauge is calculated using active listings and pending sales from the most recently available reporting period (Jun 2026 - Aug 2026).
Kearny currently leans toward sellers, with the market gauge at 24 indicating a seller’s market in this rolling three-month view through August 2026. Months of supply has fallen sharply year over year, dropping about 43 percent to 3.6 months, which signals tighter inventory. At the same time, homes are still selling close to asking, with the average sale-to-list ratio just above 100 percent.
Prices show a mixed but generally resilient picture. The typical home value is a little over $600,000 and is down slightly, about 2 percent from a year earlier, yet the median list price is up more than 7 percent year over year, suggesting sellers are testing higher price points. Activity has picked up, with homes sold rising nearly 20 percent compared with last year, while new listings are only up about 6 percent, which helps explain the tighter supply and sustained pricing power for sellers.
Speed and bidding dynamics are shifting as well. The median days on market has shortened by about 18 percent from last year to 66 days, but the share of homes selling above list price has dropped significantly over the same period, from more than seven in ten last fall to under half now. That combination points to a market where well-priced homes still move, but buyers have a bit more room to negotiate than before. In this environment, both buyers and sellers can benefit from Agent Pronto’s help in finding an experienced Kearny agent to navigate these changing conditions.
Kearny offers residents a vibrant, walkable community with strong transit links, diverse dining and shopping options, abundant parks and recreational amenities, and a close-knit, affordable living environment that keeps everyday life convenient and connected.
Kearny stands out from nearby Newark, Harrison, and Jersey City by blending tight knit neighborhood character with quick access to regional job centers and transit. Tree lined streets, long established family businesses, and local schools give it the feel of a small city that many residents stay in for generations.
Outdoor space is a big part of daily life here. Residents spend weekends at West Hudson Park, cheer from the sidelines at local soccer fields, or walk along the Passaic River waterfront. Families value resources like the Kearny Public Library and nearby Kearny High School, while commuters appreciate connections through NJ Transit and proximity to the PATH system in neighboring Harrison.
Kearny’s dining scene reflects its diverse community, from classic Portuguese and Spanish spots along Kearny Avenue to casual coffee and brunch at places highlighted by Hudson County tourism. Local events and youth sports build strong ties, and nearby urban amenities in Jersey City and Newark remain within easy reach.
For both long time residents and those relocating from places like Hoboken or Secaucus, timing and preparation matter in Kearny’s active housing market. Partnering with the right local expert through Agent Pronto helps buyers move quickly on the right home and helps sellers position their property to stand out and close with confidence.

Her professionalism, knowledge, communication and dedication were truly outstanding. Tina was always available to answer questions, kept me informed every step of the way and worked incredibly hard to make sure everything stayed on track. Thanks to her expertise, my condo sold quickly and the Closing process went smoothly. What stood out the most was how much Tina genuinely cared about me as a client, not just about making a sale. I always felt supported, respected and confident that I was in the best hands possible. I couldn't have asked for a better experience and would highly recommend Tina Torres to anyone buying or selling a home. She is truly one of the best realtors out there!!”
“I had the pleasure of having Jacqueline Greco as my real estate agent for both renting in Jersey city and Bayonne and for helping us buy our first home, the fact that we chose to work with her 3 times should speak volumes of how good of a job she's done for us, she was always available to discuss concerns and was very blunt about the places we visited with her, one thing that set her apart from other real estate agents we had in the past is how self motivated, diligent and efficient she is, she would always try to make our time worth it by booking the viewings as efficiently as possible, she navigated us through a very out of the ordinary sale, and she put us in contact with many professionals along the way. I would definitely work with her again if we need to sell our home or buy another”
