Market gauge is calculated using active listings and pending sales from the most recently available reporting period (Jul 2026).
Inventory in Sussex County has been edging up, with about 773 active listings in July and a slight month-over-month increase, even as active listings across New Jersey grew more sharply year over year. Contract activity is solid but cooling a bit, as homes sold slipped slightly from the prior month and from last year, while pending sales still managed a modest year-over-year gain.
Pricing is responding to this balance of supply and demand, with the typical home value around $471,000, up nearly 6 percent from a year ago. List prices have risen even faster, with the median list price jumping more than 17 percent year over year, showing that sellers are still pricing confidently despite slightly slower sales.
Homes are no longer disappearing quite as fast as earlier in the year, with the median days on market up to about 25 days and roughly 2.7 months of supply keeping Sussex County in a seller’s market but a bit less tight than the statewide average of 3.2 months. Even so, competition remains evident, as about 59 percent of homes are still selling above list price and the average sale-to-list ratio sits just over 102 percent. Buyers and sellers who want to navigate these shifting conditions can turn to Agent Pronto to connect with a local agent who understands this market.
