What the New Jersey market looks like right now
Across the 32 New Jersey cities we cover, the median of the typical home values was $576,915 in July 2026. The spread inside the state is wide: the typical home in Camden was $146,599 and in Princeton it was $979,905, which is why the page for your own city is the one worth reading.
Of the 21 New Jersey cities with data, 1 saw homes go under contract in 15 days or fewer and 7 took 31 days or more, in July 2026. Those are days to an accepted offer, before a buyer's mortgage adds another 30 to 45 days on top.
Values are mostly rising: 27 of the 32 New Jersey cities with a year-over-year figure went up, 5 went down. A house in good condition should usually be listed here; cash makes sense for one that cannot pass an appraisal.
Figures come from Zillow's public research data and describe whole cities, not individual houses.

Where to start: closing in New Jersey
Selling in New Jersey means closing with an attorney, and a tax or fee on the transfer of the deed is part of the settlement. The practical points, in plain words:
- Northern New Jersey closes through attorneys and southern New Jersey mostly through title companies; attorney review of the contract is standard everywhere.
- The realty transfer fee is paid by the seller and is a real line on the settlement statement.
- Non-resident sellers pay an estimated income tax at closing, widely called the exit tax, unless they qualify for an exemption.
- Many municipalities require a certificate of occupancy or a smoke detector certificate before a resale can close, and it is the seller who obtains it.
- A property condition disclosure statement is standard and known defects must be disclosed.

Selling a house in New Jersey: common questions
How fast can I sell my house in New Jersey?
Once you accept a cash offer, closing in New Jersey normally takes 7 to 21 days, limited mostly by the title search. For comparison, the median New Jersey city on our list took 20 days just for a home to go under contract in July 2026, before any mortgage timeline. If you need longer to organise a move, pick a date two or three months out instead.
Do I need an attorney to sell a house in New Jersey?
In New Jersey closings are conducted by an attorney, so yes, there will be one on the sale. On a cash sale we pay the ordinary closing costs, and you are free to bring your own attorney to review the contract before you sign; we would encourage it.
Is there a transfer tax when I sell a house in New Jersey?
Yes. New Jersey has a tax or fee on the transfer of a deed, settled on the closing statement. Who pays it is set by custom and by the contract; the closing agent will show the exact figure for your county before you sign. This is general information, not tax advice.
