Eastern Bergen County Real Estate: Market Trends You Can't Miss

Exciting Trends in Eastern Bergen County Real Estate

Welcome to the vibrant world of Eastern Bergen County real estate! I'm Stacey Esser with the Stacey Esser Group, and I'm thrilled to share the latest insights and trends in our local market. If you’re curious about what’s happening in your neighborhood, you’re in the right place.

Market Overview: A Snapshot of Growth

As we dive into the Eastern Bergen County real estate landscape, it's clear that exciting changes are underway. Most towns in the area are experiencing upward trends, with year-over-year growth, low active inventory, and a decreasing months of supply. These factors indicate a robust market that continues to thrive, defying national trends.

It's essential to focus on local dynamics rather than the broader national market, which can sometimes mislead potential buyers and sellers. In Eastern Bergen County, we're seeing significant increases in median prices, coupled with low inventory levels. This trend is expected to continue, particularly as we transition from February into March, a time when inventory typically begins to rise.

Understanding Inventory and Demand

As we analyze specific towns, let’s take a closer look at Tenafly. Currently, there are just 14 active listings in March—a notably low number. Among these listings, three have just come on the market, including a stunning new construction that I’m excited to highlight. This six-bedroom, five-bathroom home boasts luxurious features such as wide oak flooring, a high-end kitchen with Thermador appliances, and a spacious, fenced-in yard. Its prime location across from a top-tier elementary school makes it especially appealing for families.

The demand in Tenafly is palpable. Properties are moving quickly, often within days of being listed. For example, a home we listed recently received multiple offers and was under contract in just 24 hours—a testament to the competitive nature of our market right now.

Pricing Trends and Market Insights

If you’re curious about pricing in Tenafly, here's a snapshot of what you can expect. For around $985,000, you can find a lovely four-bedroom home that combines space and comfort—one of the few offerings under a million in the area. Additionally, for those looking at higher price points, there are options available up to $7 million, pushing the boundaries of what Tenafly has seen historically.

Interestingly, market data shows that about 11% of listings are in the $4 million range, and another significant portion lies between $2 to $3 million. This distribution indicates a healthy demand across various segments, making it an exciting time for both buyers and sellers.

Future Outlook: What Lies Ahead

As we look forward, one key question remains: Will Tenafly break the $7 million ceiling? Currently, there are two properties listed above this threshold, and it will be intriguing to see how the market responds.

External factors, such as stock market fluctuations and tariff concerns, could potentially influence buyer behavior, but for now, demand remains strong. The upcoming spring market is poised to bring more inventory, and it’s an exhilarating time to be involved in Eastern Bergen County real estate.
