The real estate market in Berkeley Heights, NJ has adjusted in a similar fashion to surrounding towns, with prices easing off historic highs at a rate of about 6-9% from one year ago. Recently though, homes have sold at a faster rate - especially in December. This decline in inventory has made sales more brisk, and the next few months will be critical for the price trend. If inventory remains constant, the prices should remain stable. If inventory rises to mid- 2006 levels again, we can expect the gradual pricing declines to occur.

There are currently 54 single family homes on the market for sale. These numbers have stayed relatively stable over the past month, with an equal number of sales and new listings.
Although prices and demand in general have trended lower, Berkeley Heights still remains an appealing option or many buyers, which has enabled homes to sell quickly if they are priced properly. Multiple offers are still a possiblity for competetively priced homes.

There were 9 properties that closed in January in Berkeley Heights, the average selling price was $662,668 and the average days on market for these 22 homes was 110 days. (according to Garden State MLS Statistics)
