Market gauge is calculated using active listings and pending sales from the most recently available reporting period (Jun 2026).

Ocean County home values moved higher over the past year, rising about 10% while New Jersey overall saw slower growth. Typical homes now sell for just over $520,000, putting the county below the statewide median price. Inventory also expanded, with active listings up nearly 10% year over year and months of supply now around 2.9, slightly under the state’s 3.2.

June’s numbers show an active market, with 964 homes sold, up almost 20% from May and modestly above last year. Buyers saw a bit more choice as active listings climbed to 3,922, even as new listings dipped slightly from the prior month.

Homes are moving faster than earlier in the year, with the median days on market down from 49 in March to 24 in June, and about one in three properties selling above list price. The average sale-to-list ratio is just under 100%, suggesting sellers are generally pricing close to what buyers are willing to pay. With pending sales up both month over month and year over year, demand remains steady even as supply grows. In this kind of shifting but still seller-leaning environment, both buyers and sellers can benefit from Agent Pronto’s help in finding the right local real estate agent to guide their next move.



Learn more about what Ocean County has to offer.

Ocean County offers the people who call it home a vibrant mix of pristine beaches, abundant outdoor recreation, tight-knit communities, and convenient access to good schools, services, and local opportunities in an affordable, family-friendly environment.

Ocean County offers a distinct coastal lifestyle that feels more relaxed than nearby Monmouth County, yet more suburban and accessible than resort-focused Atlantic County. From the family-friendly boardwalks of Point Pleasant Beach to the quieter lagoons of Brick and Toms River, communities here often center on the water, local schools, and long-standing neighborhood ties.

Residents make frequent use of natural assets like Island Beach State Park, highlighted by the state at Island Beach State Park, and the many programs at Cattus Island County Park. In towns such as Toms River and Lakewood, local life is grounded in recreation leagues, school events, and cultural institutions like the Jay and Linda Grunin Center for the Arts at Ocean County College. Families also pay close attention to resources like the Toms River Regional Schools district and the Ocean County Library system.

Whether you live here year round or are considering a move from nearby Burlington County, timing and preparation matter. Waterfront homes, 55 plus communities, and starter neighborhoods each follow different seasonal patterns, and pricing can shift quickly between shore towns and inland suburbs. Agent Pronto can connect both buyers and sellers in Ocean County with a local real estate professional who understands these nuances and can help you prepare for a successful move.

“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”

“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!”

“Selling my condo felt overwhelming at first, but working with Tina Torres made the entire process smooth and successful from start to finish. 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!!”

“To whom it my concern, It is our immense pleasure to recommend Viola Salvato as a real estate agent for any individual or family searching for the ideal home. Viola had an initial meeting with us regarding our specific needs in a home as well as our budgetary limits. She is highly talented and immediately found us numerous listings of homes. She did not waste our time with homes that were not in line with our needs. Viola is a master with contract negotiation she came up with a deal that was good for us as well as making the seller happy. She knows the area like the back of her hand and there is nothing that escapes her attention when it comes to properties for sale in this area. We found Viola to be a highly attentive agent, almost as if we were her only customers, although we know that was not the case. She returned all phone calls and emails the same day. We never felt neglected or unimportant. She also is highly personable with an engaging personality. She is hands down the best!”
