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

Salem’s rolling three-month snapshot shows inventory building and more homes changing hands. Active listings are up sharply year over year, and homes sold in this period have also increased compared with last year, signaling more options and slightly stronger closing activity.

Contract activity is sending mixed signals. Pending sales over the past three months are running below year-ago levels even as new listings are up noticeably, and months of supply has nearly doubled year over year to about six and a half months, pointing to a more balanced environment than in prior years.

Prices in this rolling three-month view are higher than a year ago, with the typical home value and median list price both posting solid year-over-year gains. Homes are spending much longer on the market than a year back, yet about one quarter of sales are still closing above list price and the average sale-to-list ratio is holding near 97 percent, suggesting sellers retain some leverage when homes are priced well. Buyers and sellers who want to navigate these shifting conditions can turn to Agent Pronto to connect with a local real estate agent who understands the Salem market.



Learn more about what Salem has to offer.

Salem offers residents a close-knit community, rich local history, and easy access to parks, schools, and local events that support an active, connected daily life.

Salem sits along the tidal Salem River, offering small-city living with direct access to regional routes like Route 49 and Route 45 for commuting toward Philadelphia or nearby Penns Grove. The compact street grid makes everyday errands straightforward, with schools, shops, and services close at hand.

Residents value practical amenities more than spectacle. The Salem City School District keeps education local, while the historic Salem City Library provides community programming and reliable public internet. Downtown features essential services, casual dining, and small businesses, with seasonal events at Martin Luther King Jr. Memorial Park adding to neighborhood life.

Outdoor time is easy to find. The Salem River Wildlife Management Area attracts birders and kayakers, and nearby Fort Mott State Park offers river views and open space for weekend outings. Local history is visible at the Friends Burial Ground and Oak Tree and throughout the downtown historic district.

Housing options range from older single-family homes to compact rentals, often at prices more attainable than larger metro suburbs like Cherry Hill. Because properties can vary widely in age, condition, and location within a few blocks, a local real estate expert can be the difference between a smooth move and a stressful one. Agent Pronto connects both buyers and sellers with agents who understand Salem’s streets, services, and market trends, helping make each transition more confident and less complicated.

“There truly aren’t enough words to express how grateful I am to Peggy. Selling my uncle’s home was my first real estate transaction, and I had no idea where to begin. On top of that, I live in New York, making it difficult to travel back and forth to New Jersey to handle everything. Peggy was there every step of the way. She patiently answered every question, explained the process clearly, never made me feel pressured, and went above and beyond to help with countless details I couldn’t manage myself. What could have been an overwhelming and stressful experience became manageable because of her kindness, professionalism, and genuine care. I always felt she had my best interests at heart. I truly couldn’t have asked for a better realtor, and I will always be grateful for everything she did. I recommend Peggy wholeheartedly to anyone looking for someone who truly cares about their clients.”

“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!”
