Market gauge is calculated using active listings and pending sales from the most recently available reporting period (Mar 2026 - May 2026).
Low inventory is defining recent conditions in South Toms River. Active listings in the latest rolling three-month period are down about a third from a year ago, and new listings have been cut roughly in half year over year. Even with fewer homes coming to market, sales volume has surged, with homes sold more than doubling compared with the same time last year.
This tight backdrop is keeping the market firmly tilted toward sellers, with only about 1.1 months of supply available. Homes are moving much faster than a year ago, as the median time on market has dropped sharply to around two weeks in the latest rolling three-month view, down from well over a month last year. Strong buyer demand is also evident in contract activity, with most of the limited inventory going under contract quickly.
Prices are holding relatively steady at higher levels after the gains of the past couple of years. The typical home value is slightly below where it was a year ago, but the median list price has climbed compared with last year, showing that sellers still have confidence in pricing. A large share of recent sales closed above the list price, and the average sale-to-list ratio is above 100 percent, indicating buyers are often bidding up desirable homes. In this kind of fast-moving seller-leaning market, both buyers and sellers can benefit from Agent Pronto’s help connecting with an experienced local agent.
Learn more about what South Toms River has to offer.
South Toms River offers residents a welcoming, close-knit community with convenient access to parks, schools, local services, and nearby outdoor recreation, supporting a comfortable, family-friendly lifestyle.
South Toms River offers a quieter, cozier alternative to nearby Toms River and Brick Township, with a strong sense of local identity centered on the Toms River waterfront and easy access to major routes. Many residents appreciate its small footprint and community feel, while still being close to the beaches of Seaside Heights and regional shopping and jobs.
Life here tends to revolve around the river and nearby outdoor spaces. Locals enjoy fishing and boating with access to the Toms River and Barnegat Bay, as well as the regional attractions of Double Trouble State Park and Island Beach State Park. Families often connect through youth sports and programs run by the South Toms River Borough offices, and the surrounding Ocean County area offers additional recreation, including the Ocean County Library Toms River branch and Huddy Park just across the river.
The housing stock is largely single family homes on neighborhood streets, with prices that can feel more approachable than some nearby shore communities. Because inventory moves quickly and flood zones, insurance, and local regulations play an important role, timing and preparation matter. Whether you are getting your home market ready or hoping to secure the right property before peak season, Agent Pronto can connect both buyers and sellers with a South Toms River agent who knows how to navigate this specific market.
Trusted by over 500,000 buyers and sellers.

“Dan was a great agent to work with. Helped us work through some issues with the property and insured that we were satisfied with the location prior to us signing the lease. Would strongly recommend Dan to anyone looking for a property in Ocean County.”
“Susan was incredibly helpful throughout the entire home selling process. Her knowledge and experience in real estate made everything feel smooth and stress-free from start to finish. She was always available to answer questions, explain every step, and make sure everything stayed on track. I truly appreciated her professionalism, communication, and dedication. I highly recommend Susan to anyone looking for a realtor who genuinely cares and knows the business inside and out!”

“Michael was very experienced and professional. He assisted me from the start in determining the best-selling price and provided council and insight throughout the process. He maintained excellent communication with me and all parties involved. Not only that, but he also followed up at the end to assure my satisfaction.”
“I highly recommend Sharif and Co. The whole team was professional and sold my home quickly and above asking price.”
“My agent was Lucy Phelan at Keller Williams, and I had a great experience working with both Lucy and her brother Richard. Both had provided me with their expert advice, they would take extra steps to educate you and walk you thru the home shopping process. They would work on my schedule, try their best to answer all my questions and would point me to the right direction when I was looking for the lender, inspector, lawyer, etc. As a home buyer in this "Bidding War" market, most of my offers were turned down; however, both Lucy and Rich have continuously provided me encouragement to keep trying and looking. I cannot remember how many houses we have looked together...and when I was not able to look at the houses in person, they would video call me to conduct a virtual home showing. In general, they are exceptionally good with people skill, nice/friendly people to talk with and they show care on other things then just home buying. I would like to work with them again in the future and would recommend them to any home buyer/seller.”
“Highly recommended Sarah Picarello.”
