How we track the 08731 market

For July 2026 we recorded a $520K median sale price, a 100.2% sale-to-list ratio and a -3.4% month-over-month move with 109 homes for sale. We refresh every ZIP monthly from Zillow Research, which only publishes a smoothed median once a ZIP has enough transactions, so the median stays reliable instead of noisy. Both sources have published ZIP-level series for years, which is what lets us show month-over-month and year-over-year change here in 2026. LOKAL is independent and not affiliated with Zillow; always verify against your MLS before you publish.
