Information and statistics on the latest trends in the Union County real estate market. *
June 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 (Jun 2026).
Union County is currently tilted toward sellers, with the market gauge indicating a seller’s market and just 2 months of supply compared with 3.2 months across New Jersey. Even so, conditions are not overheated, as the typical home value of about $719,000 is only modestly higher than a year ago and is rising more slowly than the statewide median.
Pricing trends show sellers still hold leverage, but buyers have slightly more breathing room than last year. While the median list price is up strongly year over year, the share of homes selling above list has slipped compared with last June, and the average sale-to-list ratio has edged down a bit, signaling that bidding is a bit less aggressive.
On the activity side, more homes are coming to market and more are changing hands, yet buyers are taking longer to decide. Active listings and homes sold are both up from a year ago, but the median days on market has more than doubled annually, indicating that properties are no longer disappearing immediately. Whether you are a buyer trying to navigate these shifting dynamics or a seller aiming to capitalize on strong prices, Agent Pronto can connect you with a Union County agent who understands this market balance and can guide your next move.
Union County offers residents a vibrant mix of green spaces, cultural attractions, strong schools, convenient transit, and a welcoming, practical community.

From commuter hubs like Elizabeth and Union Township to quieter pockets in Cranford and Westfield, the county balances urban convenience with residential comfort.

“Julia is an incredible real estate agent. From the initial selling interview through the closing process, Julia was always there for us to answer any questions no matter what time of day we asked. Her market knowledge and professionalism is top notch and was always a pleasure to deal with. It made our selling experience extremely smooth and comfortable. Thanks again Julia !”
“I love how easy it is to communicate with Lisa. If she's not one step ahead of me asking a question and she having the answer then she responds quickly when I leave a message. She understands my needs as a buyer and seller which is why I've worked with her several times. I highly recommend Lisa Ball!”
“This is the second time I’ve worked with Matthew Tully to sell a home, and once again, he exceeded my expectations. Matthew is professional, knowledgeable, responsive, and a pleasure to work with. He developed an excellent pricing and marketing strategy that resulted in my house selling quickly and for above the asking price. Throughout the entire process, he kept me informed, answered all of my questions promptly, and made everything as smooth and stress-free as possible. His attention to detail, strong negotiation skills, and commitment to his clients truly set him apart. I couldn’t be happier with the outcome and highly recommend Matthew Tully to anyone looking to buy or sell a home. The fact that I chose to work with him a second time speaks for itself. Thank you, Matthew, for another outstanding job!”
“Selling my condo felt overwhelming at first, but working with Tina Torres made the entire process smooth and successful from start to finish. Her professionalism, knowledge, communication and dedication were truly outstanding. Tina was always available to answer questions, kept me informed every step of the way and worked incredibly hard to make sure everything stayed on track. Thanks to her expertise, my condo sold quickly and the Closing process went smoothly. What stood out the most was how much Tina genuinely cared about me as a client, not just about making a sale. I always felt supported, respected and confident that I was in the best hands possible. I couldn't have asked for a better experience and would highly recommend Tina Torres to anyone buying or selling a home. She is truly one of the best realtors out there!!”

“It was a pleasure to work with Eugene while selling my mom's house! I knew it would not be an enjoyable process, but he helped make it as easy as possible.”
“Rob did well in preparing us for the sale. He understood our needs and time restraints we were under. Whenever we call him, he either anwsered at once or returned the call ASAP. He kept us in the loop at all times, providing an understanding of the next steps. Robert was professional at all times.”
“To whom it my concern, It is our immense pleasure to recommend Viola Salvato as a real estate agent for any individual or family searching for the ideal home. Viola had an initial meeting with us regarding our specific needs in a home as well as our budgetary limits. She is highly talented and immediately found us numerous listings of homes. She did not waste our time with homes that were not in line with our needs. Viola is a master with contract negotiation she came up with a deal that was good for us as well as making the seller happy. She knows the area like the back of her hand and there is nothing that escapes her attention when it comes to properties for sale in this area. We found Viola to be a highly attentive agent, almost as if we were her only customers, although we know that was not the case. She returned all phone calls and emails the same day. We never felt neglected or unimportant. She also is highly personable with an engaging personality. She is hands down the best!”

“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.”
“Keith Bochner had the same vision as I did. He was there every step of the way and went far and above what was expected. Extremely knowledgeable in the field and guided me correctly all the way. Keith is a true professional. I highly recommend his services!”
“Audra Loccisano worked closely with my siblings and I to sell our parents’ house. She really knew the local Rahway market, as well as needed services and the city building ordinances. Audra had great interpersonal skills, too, and kept in constant communication. And she was especially expert at pricing strategy and negotiations. We were all very satisfied with Audra’s services, with a fast sale at a better than expected price. We can recommend her without reservation.”
