Greater Princeton
Housing Market

Live data, updated daily. Median prices, days on market, and sale-to-list ratios; the three numbers that tell you what's actually happening.

June closed on firmer footing. Six of the eight towns we track rose on the median, and only Plainsboro and South Brunswick eased: Princeton led the way to about $1.59M, with West Windsor, Montgomery, Hopewell, Lawrence, and Robbinsville all up, while Plainsboro eased about $12,500 and South Brunswick slipped to about $848,500. Homes are still going under contract quickly and selling right around list, so this is real demand, not a low-volume mix swing. The deeper read has not changed: only well-prepared homes priced right are drawing multiple offers within days. Aspirationally-priced listings without prep go stale, and a stale listing usually nets less than a correctly-priced one would have. Asking more often gets you less. Price for the buyer pool you actually have.
In the Press
“Princeton has entered a market that rewards preparation and realistic pricing while leaving overpriced listings to sit.”
