Year-over-year, South Amboy’s housing values have moved lower even as activity has picked up. The typical home value is down about 12.06% compared to last year, while pending sales have surged by 260% and new listings are up 60%. Inventory has also grown 50% year-over-year, giving buyers more options than they had a year ago.
In February 2026, the typical home value in South Amboy was about $437,500, notably below Middlesex County’s $535,000. Homes spent a median of 79 days on the market, which is longer than a month ago, and about 5.13% of listings saw a price drop even though the market is still labeled a Seller’s Market with a gauge of 22.
Current conditions show 39 homes on the market, 16 new listings, and 18 pending sales, with sellers receiving about 97.48% of their list price on average and very few homes selling above asking. Looking ahead to March 2026, inventory is projected to edge up to 43, while the projected typical home value is $271,250 and the projected median list price is $499,850, suggesting sellers may still aim high on asking prices.
