Home prices in Robbinsville NJ continue to rise which have set expectations for a robust Spring 2014 real estate market. This Robbinsville NJ real estate market report for March 2014 provides a good snapshot for where the market has been and where it is heading.
The best news in pricing corresponds with mortgage interest rates reductions. There was a spike in interest rates several months ago, but now 30 year fixed rates are hovering around 4.5%.

Don’t wait on the sidelines for too long, many of our listings are starting to sell within a few days of hitting the market with multiple offers. Plus, all of the pundits predict mortgage interest rates will rise this year since the national economy is improving. As you can see from the graph above, listings are not selling exactly for asking price. To make sure you don't overpay for your home, you'll want to have an agent that does a thorough market analysis of the Princeton property on which you are making an offer.
Robbinsville NJ Market Inventory Trends
Robbinsville now has a 6 month supply of inventory which is a projection of how many months it will take for the local housing market to absorb the inventory of unsold homes (Unsold Inventory) within each market area. This is a more meaningful measure of market absorption than the traditional days-on-market calculation. Again, this shows that Robbinsville is in a recovery phase which is good news for sellers. This means buyers need to stop up their game and enter the market or risk being priced out again or lose out on homes altogether.

New Jersey Market
The law of supply and demand are clearly at play now. New Jersey is experiencing the lowest level since 2005 of homes being offered for sale which results in limited choices for home buyers. The continued snowstorms were the main factor of a 12% decline in January for NJ purchase contracts versus the year prior. However, we've had 28 consecutive months prior to then of higher home buying activity. We predict a strong purchase demand leading into the spring market since there is a pent up demand and all of the snow is finally melting away. Hooray!
