NJ Ranks #3 in Homes Taking the Longest to Sell Behind NY & HI

The study published in a recent Inman article uses four years of data that merges days on market and the amount of time to close a pending sale to provide insight into how long it takes to sell a home and buyer motivation. Having a longer time to close pending sales means New Jersey sellers may be holding out for a higher offer longer than other regions.

Prepare clients for the market by using NEXUS QuickStats and full reports listed by county.

Create exceptional listings with numerous photos and descriptive copy.

Be quick at the draw with contracts and forms by using zipFormPlus.
