The new reality should be settling in that the market has changed a bit.
It's not all doom and gloom though. Properties are still selling if they're priced properly and we're still seeing bidding wars in select situations.
Remember, our area has a strong base of rental buyers who start to look around once pricing dips, which it has. This is actually a win-win for the market as buyers get better pricing than a year ago and sellers can still find viable buyers for their properties.
Pending sales is the best indicator of future activity and Hoboken decreased by .78% to 128 units and downtown Jersey City decreased by 12.14% to 123 units.
Decreasing pending sales coupled with an increasing absorption rate for Hoboken and downtown Jersey City will most likely lead to continued downward pressure on overall pricing.
