Very important part of the process when it comes to selling your home. "Comps" is jargon for the comparable properties that have sold recently in your area. When it comes to listing, these will help us determine an approximate market price range as well as a pricing strategy, when analyzed in conjunction with other factors such as the average days on market, and list-to-sale price ratio.

As a home seller, one of the most important questions to ask your agent is how to determine your home’s listing, or asking, price. Here is what sellers should know about home pricing.

Real Estate Update:

For New Jersey buyers and sellers of properties valued between $1,000,000 to $2,000,000. As of yesterday, the supplemental realty transfer fee is being shifted from the buyer to the seller's responsibility.

Additionally, properties valued between $2,000,000 to $2,500,000 will now incur a 2% supplemental transfer fee.

This is followed by an incremental .5% per every $500,000 up to a ceiling of 3.5% on all properties sold for $3,500,000 and over.

The responsibility will now be on the seller for all these updated transfer fees.

More homes are hitting the market and giving buyers more choice.

In May, homebuyers had more options as active listings jumped 31.5% compared to a year ago, building on April’s 30.6% increase. It’s the 19th straight month of year-over-year growth.

📈 The number of homes for sale passed 1 million for the first time since winter 2019 and beat 2020 levels for the second month in a row, a key sign of post-pandemic recovery.
