Market gauge is calculated using active listings and pending sales from the most recently available reporting period (Jul 2026 - Sep 2026).
Year-over-year, South River’s rolling three-month data shows prices trending upward while inventory has expanded. The typical home value is up nearly 5% from a year ago, and median list prices are almost 9% higher, even as active listings have climbed by about 31%.
Looking at the latest rolling period ending in September 2026, buyers are seeing more options but still face a market tilted toward sellers. Months of supply has surged to about 4.2 from roughly 1.8 a year earlier, while median days on market hover in the low 70s, only slightly higher than last year and indicating homes still move at a steady pace.
Sales activity has strengthened alongside the price gains, with homes sold up nearly 11% year over year and pending sales jumping almost 46%. At the same time, more than half of recent sales closed above asking price and the average sale-to-list ratio sits just under 102%, underscoring that well-priced homes still attract strong offers. Agent Pronto can connect both buyers and sellers with a local agent who understands these conditions and can help them navigate the South River market with confidence.

“We had such a great experience working with Pat to find our home in New Jersey! Since we were moving from out of state, we relied heavily on Pat to tour homes for us, and he was incredibly responsive, reliable, and thorough throughout the entire process. He always took the time to send us detailed videos and walk through each home as if we were there ourselves, which made the out-of-state home-buying process so much easier. Pat went above and beyond to make sure we found the right home for our family, and we truly appreciated how easy he was to work with from start to finish. We couldn’t be happier with our experience and would highly recommend Pat to anyone looking to buy a home!”

“We are truly so grateful for Caryn and everything she did to help our family find a rental home. This was not an easy search for us. We faced quite a few challenges along the way, and there were moments when we honestly wondered if we were going to find a place in time. But Caryn never gave up on us. She worked so hard and was incredibly persistent in helping us find a home. She was constantly communicating, following up, searching for options, and doing everything she could to help. What touched us the most was that she continued to be there for us even after hours and even while she was out of state cheering on and supporting her own children during their competitions. She still made time for us and kept working on our behalf. That kind of dedication meant more to us than she probably realizes. Caryn never made us feel like we were just another rental client. She genuinely cared about our family and understood how important it was for us to find a place we could call home. She was patient with us, reassuring when things didn’t work out, and kept encouraging us to keep going when the search became overwhelming. After everything we went through, finally finding our rental home was such a huge relief. We are so thankful Caryn was there with us through the entire process. She truly went above and beyond, and we will always remember how hard she worked for our family. Caryn, thank you from the bottom of our hearts. Your kindness, patience, persistence, and dedication made such a difference during a very stressful time in our lives. We are so grateful we found you and had you in our corner. And when the time comes for us to purchase our own home, you will absolutely be the first person we call. We would be honored to have you help us with that next chapter too. If you’re looking for a realtor who will genuinely care about helping you find a place to call home, we highly recommend Caryn. She truly goes above and beyond.”

“Richard represented himself in a professional manner and really helped us out when we needed it the most. He is a young ambitious gentleman and will get the job done for you. Please don’t hesitate to use Richard as your real estate agent. You won’t be disappointed. Thank you, Richard for all you did for me and my family.”
Keller Williams West Monmouth
“The most positive experience I could have possibly imagined! There's really no words to describe how wonderful it was to work with Frank. Selling an older house can always be a challenge and there will always be tons of curveballs and questions along the way. The communication was above and beyond anything I could have hoped for! He handled all the challenges with grace and enthusiasm. His knowledge of the area as well as his understanding of the market made him the perfect person to work with. Selling a house can usually be a very difficult and sensitive step in a family's history and I was able to rest easy during it all knowing that all the details and difficulties were being thought of daily by Frank. He also helped suggest services to help move things along during the process (cleanouts/donations/etc). Couldn't recommend him any more!”

“I highly recommend Andrew to anyone looking to purchase a home in New Jersey. Purchasing a home as a First Time Buyer here with a busy work schedule seemed like it would be near impossible. With Andrew’s help and experience in Real Estate, he made the entire process smooth and seamless. Andrew was willing to work with my busy schedule and odd hours to show me new listings and was always available to answer all of the questions and concerns I had as a First Time Buyer throughout the Home Buying Process. If you are looking for an Agent who prioritizes your interests, communicates effectively, and is highly knowledgeable on every step of the Real Estate process here in New Jersey, Andrew is an excellent choice.”

“Matt is the best. He took on the task of selling my home and finding me my dream home at the same time! Matt is professional, honest, hard working and is always there to answer questions or be there for reassurance when you feel overwhelmed with the whole process! I have recommended him to two neighbors who also had him handle the sale of their houses. They were very grateful that I did! Matt treats you like a friend, not just a client and I recommend him 1000% if you are buying or selling! You won’t be disappointed! Thanks Matt for everything!”
RE/MAX First Realty
“I couldn't recommend Octavio more highly. We started out attending open houses and meeting dozens of agents, but Octavio stood out immediately. Even amidst a crowded open house, he took the time to sit down with us to understand what we were actually looking for. That initial conversation turned into countless weeknights and weekends touring neighborhoods across South Jersey, patiently helping us narrow down what fit our lifestyle (not an easy task, given my wife and I had slightly different aesthetics). Along the way, he guided our pricing and offer strategies with clear, grounded advice. Where Octavio truly set himself apart was after we went under contract. He was meticulous during due diligence—connecting us with top-tier inspectors, coordinating follow-ups with specialists, chasing down loose ends, and staying readily accessible for every odd question that came up. We close tomorrow, and we couldn't be happier with our decision. I’d refer Octavio to friends and family in a heartbeat.”
Keller Williams Moorestown
“We had an excellent experience working with Michael to sell our home. From the very beginning, he was incredibly communicative and always kept us informed every step of the way. He consistently provided information in a timely manner and made sure we always knew what to expect throughout the process. His marketing strategy was excellent! We felt that his knowledge and expertise played a big part in achieving such a quick and successful sale. Most importantly, he was honest, transparent, and professional throughout the entire process, which gave us complete confidence and peace of mind. We are extremely grateful for all of his hard work and would highly recommend him to anyone looking to buy or sell a home! He truly went above and beyond to provide a great experience! Thank you, Michael! Michael and Zenny Bergendorff”

“Allie helped me assist my aging parents in selling their home, which they built decades ago. Because of the attachment it felt like an impossible goal to me for many years. I genuinely believe we could not have done this successfully with a different agent. Allie had the right combination of all the characteristics we needed to help my parents trust the process and move forward. Many agents are knowledgeable and experienced - that should be a baseline expectation when choosing a someone. However, it’s hard to find someone who also brings cultural sensitivity, integrity, and interpersonal skills on top of her wealth of insight. She knew exactly how to talk to them despite the language barrier, hold their dignity through a vulnerable journey, validate big emotions, support their wishes with each step, all while expeditiously moving things along when they needed to be done. She was always available around the clock and very responsive to all issues and questions that arose as they inevitably do. Some agents are very good, but some are truly called to this profession. I’m so grateful that we had Allie by our side during this incredibly challenging season. Highly recommend!”

“After living in my home for 22 years, choosing the right realtor mattered. Ivette handled everything with a level of pace and detail that immediately put me at ease. The listing, photos, drone footage wee exceptional and showcased my home beautifully. From prep to closing, the entire process took about 6 weeks and she guided me through every step with professionalism and care. I have gratitude for the partnering as each seller has unique needs and desires - all of which she matched. Thank you Ivette for the guidance, encouragement and also emotional support provided during the way. Highly recommend Ivette if you are serious about selling and wanting rigor around speed, all while obtaining appropriate market value.”
