Market gauge is calculated using active listings and pending sales from the most recently available reporting period (Apr 2026 - Jun 2026).
Ship Bottom currently leans toward sellers, with the market gauge sitting at 33 on the seller’s side. Even so, conditions are not extreme, as 4.5 months of supply suggests a more balanced pace between new listings and buyer demand.
Over the latest rolling three-month period ending in June 2026, pricing has softened slightly while asking prices climbed. The typical home value is about $1.07 million, down modestly year over year, while the median list price is up sharply over the same time, reflecting stronger seller expectations and higher-end inventory coming to market.
Activity has picked up compared with a year ago, with homes sold rising more than 40 percent and new listings increasing by roughly two-thirds. Homes are also moving more quickly, with median days on market dropping significantly, and about 29 percent of recent sales closing above the list price while the average sale-to-list ratio hovers near 99 percent, indicating buyers are negotiating close to asking. In this type of evolving seller-leaning market, both buyers and sellers can benefit from Agent Pronto’s help in finding an agent who understands Ship Bottom’s current trends and dynamics.

“We went online searching for the best realtor in the area for houses at the Jersey shore. Boy, did we get the best! Camille went out of her way to make sure that she addressed all of our questions, was very prompt in getting back to us, and showed us a great selection of homes in a competitive market . Would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a home in the area! She will be our Realtor at the Jersey shore forever.”
“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!”
“I have used other agents in the past. Since I have worked with Maureen Yetman over the last few years her knowledge and professionalism is second to none. We will definitely retain her services for any properties in the future.”
“Thomas made the process so streamlined, simple and enjoyable. His communication was top-notch as far as providing us with updates, any documents, etc. He handled everything in an incredibly timely manner and made the entire experience completely stress-free and we couldn't recommend him more! He displayed the upmost professionalism and was a pleasure to work with!”
“Eugene is great to work with. Very responsive and helpful. We would recommend in the future.”
“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!!”
“Chris was incredible and helped me find my first home. He was very knowledgeable and communicated everything clearly, and I would highly recommend him to my friends and family.”
“Mary Ann understood what I wanted and found just the right home! I could not be happier with the price we paid. She helped get us a credit after the inspection showed plumbing issues. I would recommend her to anyone looking for a home.”
“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!”
