“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!”

Market gauge is calculated using active listings and pending sales from the most recently available reporting period (Apr 2026 - Jun 2026).
Over the latest rolling three-month period ending in June 2026, Upper Vailsburg’s home values are essentially flat compared with a year ago, with the typical home value edging down less than one percent. Listing prices, however, have moved notably higher year over year, with the median list price up by roughly 11 percent, signaling that sellers are testing stronger pricing than last summer.
In terms of activity, both demand and supply have expanded from a year earlier. Homes sold and pending sales have each risen sharply year over year, while active listings are up by more than half, giving buyers more options than they had in the same period last year.
Conditions still lean toward sellers despite that increase in inventory, as Upper Vailsburg is classified as a seller’s market with about three months of supply compared with nearly six months across Newark overall. At the same time, homes are spending less time on the market than a year ago, and the average sale-to-list ratio is just above 104 percent, showing that many buyers are bidding close to or above asking prices. Buyers and sellers who want to navigate these shifting dynamics can turn to Agent Pronto to be connected with a local agent who understands the Upper Vailsburg market.
