Information and statistics on the latest trends in the Sussex County real estate market. *
September 2026
Monthly data for the latest available year.
Monthly supply and activity totals for the latest available year.
Market gauge is calculated using active listings and pending sales from the most recently available reporting period (Sep 2026).
Inventory in Sussex County has grown modestly, with active listings up year over year and sitting just under 800 homes in September. Contract activity is steady, as homes sold and pending sales both rose compared with last year, indicating that buyers are still moving forward despite more choices on the market.
Pricing has adjusted from midsummer peaks, with the typical home value dipping month over month but still up strongly from a year ago. List prices showed only a slight year-over-year increase, suggesting sellers are pricing more carefully as supply inches higher and buyers show more sensitivity.
Speed of sales adds another layer to the story, as the median days on market dropped sharply from August and is slightly faster than a year ago. With only about 2.9 months of supply, Sussex County remains a seller’s market compared with New Jersey overall, yet more inventory and a small decline in the share of homes selling above list hint at somewhat more negotiating room for buyers. Agent Pronto can connect both buyers and sellers with an agent who understands these dynamics and can help them navigate this evolving market.

From Vernon and Sparta to Newton and Hopatcong, residents find a range of housing options along with everyday conveniences and recreation close by.

Daily life is supported by strong local services and schools such as Sparta Township Public Schools. Newton’s walkable center features dining and community events at The Newton Theatre, while larger shopping and employment hubs are reachable in nearby Morris County and Passaic County.

“On top of every detail. Julia was professional in every way and a delight to work with. She made sure every detail throughout the process was taken care of in a timely manner. She saved us money by discovering an expense that we should not have to pay. We’ve bought and sold many homes over the years and Julia was one of the best we’ve ever worked with.”
“I will be forever grateful to Catherine and Maria for all they did for me . It was a process selling my house for sure . But they somehow managed to tackle every single issue that came our way . And they did it flawlessly. I wouldn’t have been able to get through this without them . Both of them are so trustworthy and caring, that’s hard to find sometimes . They were so easy to get it touch with too . They took the stress off my plate and I couldn’t be more thankful. I will be using them again to purchase a house . Thank you guys for everything!!”
“The Erin’s Team could not have provided a better real estate experience. Ray first helped me find a home in 2013, when I wasn’t sure I could afford it and many people advised against buying. It turned out to be one of the best decisions I could have made. In 2023, the team helped me find excellent tenants, allowing me to rent out the property profitably. When I decided to relocate out of state in 2026, they made the selling process seamless from start to finish. Their pricing strategy was spot-on, generating multiple offers within just a few days. I ultimately sold the home for nearly 20% over asking price and almost three times my original purchase price. Throughout the years, Ray and the entire Erin’s Team have consistently demonstrated exceptional professionalism, market knowledge, and sound guidance. Their commitment to their clients is truly unmatched. Thank you, Ray and the Erin’s Team, for more than a decade of outstanding service and an A+ experience. I couldn’t recommend them more highly!”
“Daniel is highly professional and has a team that always responds in a timely manner and is very efficient. The property I had was out of state, Daniel took care of everything that needed to be taken care of and saved me loads of trouble. He monitored the entire process and made sure everything was handled with utmost professionalism. Daniel is definitely the best and I cannot thank him enough for taking care of this for me.”
“I want to take a moment to express my heartfelt appreciation for my real estate agent, Emily. Buying a house is not an easy journey, and my journey to owning home came with so many challenges, unexpected obstacles, and moments when I felt like giving up. But through it all, Emily never stopped fighting for me. She stood by my side, pushed when things got difficult, and continued to advocate for me when I needed someone in my corner. Emily, you didn’t just help me find a house; you helped me fight for a dream. You saw how much this meant to me, and you gave me encouragement and support when I needed it most. Your dedication, patience, and determination mean more to me than words can explain. I know this journey wasn’t easy, but I’m truly grateful that I had you by my side. Not every real estate agent goes above and beyond the way you did, and I will never forget the effort you put into helping me get to this point. Thank you, Emily, for fighting for me, believing in my dream, and helping me get closer to turning a house into a home. You will always be a special part of my homeownership journey. May God bless you for the heart you put into your work and for the difference you make in people’s lives.”
“Roxanne Briano handled the purchase and sale of this property. Roxanne was very responsive to our every need and used her professional skill set to come up with a marketing plan which she ultimately executed to perfection. I would highly recommend any buyer or seller to work with Roxanne in the future.”
“Used Dean Terry for a home purchase, he went above and beyond on all fronts and I will be using him as my realtor moving forward. He kept me informed on what was going on, every step of the process was smooth and Dean and provided great insight.”
“Helene Harrison is a top-notch realtor!!! With pinpoint professionalism, effectiveness, and efficiency she navigated the sale of my home with ease and a sale price well-above the list price, helping me work through a few complications along the way. Using the Allstate slogan: “you’re in good hands” when you sign up with Helene and her partner Liz.”
“It was a pleasure working with Mark and his team. Mark always responded, easy to reach even when he was on vacation. He walked us through everything in a way that was easy to understand and took away the anxiety of the process. He was patient with us and worked well with us.”
“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!”
“Heather recently helped me complete a home purchase and she was truly amazing from start to finish! I came to her after not having much success previously. I had seen 20+ homes before and could not get anywhere. I saw one home with her and she managed to get the deal closed within a month! She is extremely responsive and will go the extra mile every time for her clients! I felt that she had my best interest in mind and was very knowledgeable throughout the entire process. She takes her time with every interaction and every negotiation and truly wants to see you succeed in this journey. She is there for you every step of the way and I could not be more thankful for her endless support throughout this journey. She is so kind, thoughtful, and just an altogether amazing person filled with so much joy and excitement. It is clear to see she loves what she does. If you are in the home buying journey and have been struggling or want to find a home especially in this current market, I highly recommend reaching out to Heather. She will get it done no matter the circumstance! The best part is she doesn’t disappear right after the closing like other realtors. She is there for you even after to help you get adjusted to your new home and be a resource for you as you embark upon this new journey. That itself is rare and just proves her dedication and commitment to providing superior service and instilling trust to her clients! Truly exceptional realtor and so thankful we crossed paths!”
“Nichole was absolutely amazing to work with! She is extremely knowledgeable, experienced, professional, and truly cares about her clients. She made the entire process smooth and stress-free, was always responsive, and went above and beyond every step of the way. I highly recommend Nichole to anyone looking for a fantastic realtor with Prestige Properties.”
“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.”
“From the beginning of our home search through closing, Ryan was incredibly knowledgeable, patient, honest, and easy to work with. One of the things we appreciated most was how straightforward he was with us throughout the entire process. When it came time to make an offer, Ryan was always honest about how competitive he thought it was and never pressured us to go beyond what made sense. He would even tell us when we were getting to a point where he personally would walk away. That honesty extended to the homes themselves. He wasn’t afraid to point out concerns about the quality or condition of a house, and he was equally candid about different neighborhoods and locations. Ryan was also extremely patient with us. We never felt rushed into making a decision, and it always felt like his priority was helping us find the right home rather than simply getting a deal done. He’s very easy to talk to, which made what can be a stressful process feel much more comfortable. Having grown up in the area, Ryan also has a tremendous amount of knowledge about the county and surrounding towns. That local perspective was invaluable, especially when we were considering different neighborhoods and trying to figure out where we ultimately wanted to be. We’re extremely happy with the home we ended up with and very grateful to Ryan for helping us get there. We would absolutely recommend him to anyone looking to buy a home in the area.”
“Jose and his team were an absolute pleasure to work with! I was dreading the home-buying process, but they made everything smooth, easy, and stress-free. Jose was always available, knowledgeable, and never pushy- he simply guided us through every step and helped us feel confident in our decisions. We’re so grateful for his help and highly recommend him and his team. 10/10!”
“Gloria Review We had a wonderful experience working with Gloria to find our new home! She guided us through the entire home buying process with a gentle, thoughtful manner and a wealth of knowledge. Gloria was always receptive to our concerns and feedback and took the time to make sure we understood each step along the way. She was consistently available to answer all of our questions, and whenever she didn’t know the answer, she would promptly do the research needed to find it. Her patience, responsiveness, and dedication made what could have been a stressful process feel much more manageable and enjoyable. We are truly grateful for all of Gloria’s help and would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a knowledgeable, caring, and dependable real estate agent.”
“My experience with Raphaela was amazing . She was very helpful communicative and knowledgeable, when it came to finding my apartment. I highly recommend her to help you find your home.”
“Kevin was very helpful throughout what can commonly be a very stressful process. He was extremely responsive and always told it how it is. You can tell he really does want the best for his clients. I wouldn’t hesitate working with him again in the future.”
“Andrea and her team were amazing. They truly took our concerns seriously and made sure we were connected with the right people whenever we needed answers or assistance. They were informative, responsive, and made everything we needed to know clear throughout the process. We were also constantly kept updated on what was going on, which gave us peace of mind and made the entire experience feel much more manageable. We are incredibly grateful for their support and would highly recommend this company to anyone looking for a team that genuinely cares about its clients.”
“Jayson Frank deserves every star you could possibly give in a review. My wife and I had the pleasure of working with Jay throughout our home-buying process, and we could not say enough good things about him. From start to finish, he was professional, detail-oriented, responsive, knowledgeable, and, perhaps most importantly, honest and sincere. Buying a home can be an emotional process, but Jay was never afraid to give me his honest opinion when I needed to hear it, but he always did so in a level-headed, fair, and respectful way. He never tried to make decisions for us, steer us toward an outcome, or pressure us into anything we weren’t comfortable with. Instead, he gave us the facts, shared his perspective, and allowed us to make the decisions that were right for us. That honesty and integrity were incredibly valuable throughout the process. Jay’s attention to detail was exceptional. He did his due diligence at every step and consistently picked up on things that could easily have been overlooked, including details that other professionals involved in the transaction missed. He was always prepared, responsive, and willing to dig deeper to make sure we understood exactly what we were getting into. He was also humble, personable, and incredibly easy to work with. Jay was confident in what he knew, honest when something fell outside his expertise, and knew when it was best to bring in the right professional. He helped connect us with an excellent attorney and broker, both of whom were stand-up professionals and did a fantastic job. Most of all, Jay made what could have been a stressful process an enjoyable one. He handled everything from start to finish. Whenever we needed him, he was there. He didn’t simply help us purchase a house. He helped us navigate the entire experience with confidence and ultimately helped us find our dream home. Jay is the kind of person you want in your corner during a major life decision. He is knowledgeable without being arrogant, confident without being pushy, honest without being judgmental, and always focused on doing what is best for his clients. He is a sincere, authentic person, and that comes through in everything he does. My wife and I are incredibly grateful to have had Jay in our corner, and we would recommend him to anyone looking to buy or sell a home without hesitation. He is an exceptional real estate agent and, just as importantly, a really good person.”
