Prices continue to rise in both the Hoboken and downtown Jersey City markets in November.
1, 2 and 3 bedroom condos in Hoboken averaged over $500 sq. ft. this month. which is the first time I have seen this in over three years.
1 and 2 bedroom condos in the Newport area averaged over $550/sq.ft.
1 and 2 bedroom condos in the downtown area averaged over $440/sq.ft.
Prices are on the rise and should continue to strengthen as new properties hit the market for sale in January.
