Market gauge is calculated using active listings and pending sales from the most recently available reporting period (Apr 2026 - Jun 2026).
Inventory in Old Tappan has expanded in the latest rolling three-month view, with active listings up about 11 percent year over year to 44. New listings have also grown strongly over the past year, rising more than 46 percent, which is giving buyers more options than they had last summer. Contract activity is picking up as well, with homes sold up around 24 percent and pending sales up nearly 37 percent compared with a year ago.
Pricing has moved higher as demand meets this additional supply. The typical home value over the rolling three months is up about 36 percent year over year, while the median list price has risen roughly 7 percent. Sellers are still achieving strong results, with an average sale-to-list ratio just above 101 percent and more than half of recent sales closing above the asking price.
Time on market has shortened compared with last year, even as the current median is 67 days, indicating that well-priced homes are finding buyers without lingering for months. Months of supply has tightened to 4.8, consistent with Old Tappan’s status as a seller’s market, yet higher inventory levels mean buyers have more to choose from than in some past periods. With these shifting conditions and sizable price gains, both buyers and sellers can benefit from Agent Pronto’s help in finding an experienced local agent to guide their decisions.
