Market gauge is calculated using active listings and pending sales from the most recently available reporting period (Apr 2026 - Jun 2026).
Across Lakewood, the rolling three-month view shows inventory and deal activity both picking up. Active listings are up more than 20% year over year, while new listings have surged nearly 50%, and pending sales are higher by about 39%, signaling more contracts flowing through the pipeline.
Pricing has been adjusting downward even as activity climbs. The typical home value is down about 19% from a year ago, and the median list price has fallen nearly 9%, reflecting sellers tempering expectations to meet buyers where they are.
Conditions on the ground feel more balanced but still lean toward sellers, with 6.9 months of supply and roughly 23% of homes selling above list over the past three months. Whether you are a buyer trying to interpret these mixed signals or a seller aiming to price correctly in this shifting environment, Agent Pronto can connect you with a local agent who understands Lakewood’s trends in detail and can guide you through your next move.

“We went online searching for the best realtor in the area for houses at the Jersey shore. Boy, did we get the best! Camille went out of her way to make sure that she addressed all of our questions, was very prompt in getting back to us, and showed us a great selection of homes in a competitive market . Would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a home in the area! She will be our Realtor at the Jersey shore forever.”
“On a lazy Saturday morning over a cups of coffee, my wife and I saw a listing on Zillow that interested us. Our interest was further peaked that afternoon when we happened to drive by the property on the way to visiting a friend. We told our friends about the property and they recommended Susan, who they used to represent them several years prior. We wanted to see the property so we called Susan who quickly arranged an appointment to see it on Monday morning. We met at the property and Susan explained to us the listing history and some of the history of the house itself. When my wife and I decided to make an offer, Susan clearly explained the process and assisted us through the negotiation, contract signing, and the inspection. She even helped us in securing financing and saw the process through closing. Susan truly made the purchase as seemless as possible. She is a true professional and we would not hesitate to use her again or recommend her to family and friends.”
“I love how easy it is to communicate with Lisa. If she's not one step ahead of me asking a question and she having the answer then she responds quickly when I leave a message. She understands my needs as a buyer and seller which is why I've worked with her several times. I highly recommend Lisa Ball!”
“This is the second time I’ve worked with Matthew Tully to sell a home, and once again, he exceeded my expectations. Matthew is professional, knowledgeable, responsive, and a pleasure to work with. He developed an excellent pricing and marketing strategy that resulted in my house selling quickly and for above the asking price. Throughout the entire process, he kept me informed, answered all of my questions promptly, and made everything as smooth and stress-free as possible. His attention to detail, strong negotiation skills, and commitment to his clients truly set him apart. I couldn’t be happier with the outcome and highly recommend Matthew Tully to anyone looking to buy or sell a home. The fact that I chose to work with him a second time speaks for itself. Thank you, Matthew, for another outstanding job!”
“Thomas made the process so streamlined, simple and enjoyable. His communication was top-notch as far as providing us with updates, any documents, etc. He handled everything in an incredibly timely manner and made the entire experience completely stress-free and we couldn't recommend him more! He displayed the upmost professionalism and was a pleasure to work with!”

“Michael was very experienced and professional. He assisted me from the start in determining the best-selling price and provided council and insight throughout the process. He maintained excellent communication with me and all parties involved. Not only that, but he also followed up at the end to assure my satisfaction.”
“Eric Valenzona was excellent! From the first phone call throughout the whole process, he was professional, pleasant, courteous, and overall extremely helpful.”
“I highly recommend Sharif and Co. The whole team was professional and sold my home quickly and above asking price.”
“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.”
“Highly recommended Sarah Picarello.”
“My experience went smoothly and I couldn't have been happier.”
“I believe Chris Ryan performed his job in a very professional manner, taking the concerns of this sellers to heart in most cases. He seems truly to have our best interests in mind when making the marketing decisions he did. His reports were timely, and informative. I would recommend his services to others. Paul F Hallbauer”
