monmouth county: NY Post Article on Rumson Luxury Homes Gets a Rise and Gets it Wrong!
- 08/31/10 09:33 AM
The New York Post ran an article this weekend which got a lot of attention in Monmouth County as it was highlighting the higher end of the market, specifically in Rumson, NJ. If you'd like to read the full article you can do so on the NY Post website. Ultimately I don’t think this is a new story… basically they’re saying “prices are down and there’s a lot of inventory” but that’s basically been the story for about three years now. All they’ve done is make it very specific to one part of the market and made it a bit … (1 comments)
monmouth county: Monmouth County June Sales Way Up - Lowest Absorption Rate in over 4 Years!
- 07/28/10 05:44 AM
Single-family home unit sales in Monmouth County, NJ, were up 50% in June relative to the year before (650 homes sold vs 435) - a remarkable increase and hopefully a promising indicator of market improvement. Interestingly, June's figures were an even bigger increase from May - 94%!

And while current inventory is slightly higher than this time last year, the absorption rate is way down … (4 comments)

Q: I'm looking for a Craftsman style home in Monmouth County, NJ, preferably in Keyport, Middletown, or Matawan. Can you help? -- Aly A: Aly, As a lover of Craftsman homes (and owner of a great 1917 California Bungalow), I can tell you there are a good number of Craftsman stye homes in northern & eastern Monmouth County.

monmouth county: Monmouth County Parks System: Hartshorne Woods
- 06/24/09 09:47 AM
Truly, one of the best features of Monmouth County is its park system. With over 30 parks, gardens, ocean beaches, forests, golf courses, historic sites, recreation areas and marine habitats, it's comprised of over 14,500 acres and each year it offers over 4000 recreation programs with activities suitable for any age or ability.

I've heard that it is regarded as one of the best mountain biking parks on the east coast. It is … (0 comments)
