Market gauge is calculated using active listings and pending sales from the most recently available reporting period (May 2026 - Jul 2026).
Matawan is currently tilted toward sellers, with the market gauge reading 18 and classified as a seller’s market. Even so, conditions are more balanced than in the past, as months of supply has risen to 3.2 while the average sale-to-list ratio has eased to 100.2 percent.
Home values have inched up over the past year, with the typical home value posting a modest 1.6 percent gain in this rolling three-month view, while the median list price is up a stronger 5.33 percent year over year. At the same time, only about 30.81 percent of homes are selling above list price, down notably from a year ago, and homes now sit on the market a median of 50 days, a sharp increase from last year.
Activity patterns highlight a mixed pace of demand. Year over year, homes sold are down nearly 30 percent and new listings have fallen about 18 percent, yet pending sales have surged roughly 55 percent and active inventory is up about 7 percent, suggesting more choices for committed buyers. Agent Pronto can connect buyers who want to navigate these changing conditions and sellers who hope to price strategically with a local agent who understands the Matawan market.
Matawan offers residents a welcoming, connected community with accessible parks, quality schools, convenient local shops, and easy transit options that together support a comfortable, active lifestyle.
Matawan combines small-town scale with strong regional access, sitting close to major job centers along the North Jersey Coast Line. The Matawan station in nearby Aberdeen connects residents directly to Newark and New York City through NJ Transit, while local highways make trips to Monmouth County beaches and employers straightforward.
Daily life here is practical and family friendly. The borough maintains a walkable core with casual dining spots like The Brass Rail Bar & Grill and coffee at Café 360. Groceries, services, and everyday errands are clustered along routes 34 and 79, keeping essentials close to established neighborhoods and newer communities.
Outdoor options are a major draw. Residents enjoy trails and sports facilities at Matawan’s municipal parks, with larger green spaces such as Cheesequake State Park a short drive away. Matawan families also benefit from the Matawan-Aberdeen Regional School District, which serves a range of age groups and offers local extracurricular programs.
Nearby hubs like Red Bank and Asbury Park expand dining, arts, and nightlife choices, while larger retail and medical services in Freehold Township and Holmdel are easy to reach.
Because each neighborhood and price point responds differently to commuter demand, schools, and local inventory, a knowledgeable Matawan agent can simplify decisions, anticipate issues, and reduce stress. Agent Pronto connects both buyers and sellers with the right local expert to navigate this market confidently.

“From the first conversation with Peggy all the way to closing day and after she was not just my realtor but someone who truly cared about me and what I was going through. Thank you Peggy, you certainly were a voice of reason and an excellent choice in choosing you as my realtor. Thanks for getting me through such an emotional and challenging time.”
“Maureen was great, worked with me every step of the way, and resolved every issue that came up quickly and thoroughly. Would definitely choose Maureen again! Very Satisfied!”
“There are great realtors, and then there is Julieann. She guided us through every step of selling our home and purchasing our new one with unmatched professionalism, expertise, and genuine compassion. Her strategic advice on what to repair—and what not to—helped us sell significantly above asking. She went far beyond expectations by helping us spackle, hiring a stager at her own expense, providing furniture to showcase our home, and even working with the township to keep permits on schedule. Julieann was always available by text or email, calming our fears and solving every obstacle. Most importantly, she truly cares about her clients, treating us like family. The birthday cards she has sent us over the years reflect the thoughtful person she is. Julieann is not only an extraordinary realtor but an extraordinary human being. We recommend her without hesitation! Sincerely, Bonnie and Matt Sorkin”

She made everything easy, as well as easing my stress throughout it all. Her positive and wanting to help attitude is amazing. More Agents should be like her. Her patience and kindness is admireable. Here's to becoming part of the family! Cheers!”
“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.”
“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.”

“It was a pleasure to deal with Joan Bostonian. She was professional and diligent! ”
“I believe Chris Ryan performed his job in a very professional manner, taking the concerns of this sellers to heart in most cases.
