Hoboken/Downtown Jersey City | October Real Estate Update | Where are We Headed?

  




October 2020 Real Estate Report


Hoboken

The pace of sales actually picked up a bit for Hoboken in October with only 20.80 weeks of inventory on the market as opposed to 26.31 weeks from last month.

On top of that, pending sales increased 3.89% to 187 units and total sales increased 20% to 84 units.

1 and 2BR units remained fairly steady with prices dropping 2.61% for 1BR and increasing 2.08% for 2BR units. 

3BR units showed some softness this month with prices dropping by 11.56%.  Many 3BR buyers have accelerated their home searches in the suburbs which has put a bit of downward pressure on pricing.

Days on the market increased slightly by 16.13% to 36 days.



Downtown Jersey City

The pace of sales also picked up in downtown Jersey City with only 26.62 weeks of inventory on the market in October, a decrease of 21.20%

1BR units saw a 10.57% increase in pricing, while 2BR units dropped 2.93% and 3BR dropped 9.80%.  3BR pricing follows in line with Hoboken in that 3BR buyers are moving more rapidly to the suburbs at the moment.

Days on the market increased slightly by 10.34% to 32 days.


Conclusion

We are still seeing some shifts in the market now which will start to show up in the data in about 6-8 weeks.  Properties are still selling, but there has definitely been more price negotiations than we have seen in the past.
