The Northern NJ Housing Temperature

I wrote an article last week for TAPinto-Wayne and came across some interesting statistics while analyzing the inventory and pricing challenges in the area. Wayne is a great town to use as a benchmark for Northern NJ, given its size, location, and current population.


Listing Per Month in Wayne NJ (Average)

  • 2018 – 2019 Average Listings: 226 homes per month
  • 2023 – 2024 Average Listings: 63 homes per month
  • Overall decrease: 72%

This data underscores just how drastically inventory levels have changed—and why today’s market remains so competitive for buyers and why homes are selling for extremely high amounts.


Other Market Snippets:

  • Fair Lawn went 6 days without a new listing
  • Woodland Park had only 1 home for sale, and it was 50 days on the market.
  • Paramus has 13 homes for sale that are less than 30 days old, four are listed over $2 million.
  • Rutherford has only 5 homes for sale, none less than 21 days on the market.
