More Facts about the market at Moore Estate in Convent Station, NJ

By
Real Estate Agent with LuxeLife Group of eXp Realty 0676519

Real estate activity at Moore Estate in 2008 has been rather disappointing.    Number of sales are down 50% and median and average sales prices are down and days on market have increased by 24% and average list to sale price is now 95.9% instead of the 97.9% in 2007.  There are many reasons for this, including:

  • The national and local economy and tight mortgage market
  • More properties and fewer buyers equals more supply, less demand, putting pressure on prices
  • The primarey target markets for The Moore Estate is downsizing empty nesters - and they are either unable to sell their larger homes or unwilling to sell at market prices, therefore they are unable to move

Currently there are 7 homes for sale in Moore Estate, from 4 Davenport for $499,000 to 7 Morgan Place at an asking price of $1,395,000.  Additionally in Morris Township there are a total of 32 condos/townhouses for sale.  Many are lower priced, such as Pitney Place.  More notably as competitor to the high-end Moore Estate luxury townhouses is the project of new townhomes at The Brownstones on Howland Terrace.  Though not as idyllic a location, these homes are brand-new, offer 3,900 to 4,400 square feet, elevators in every home and are quite close to the Convent Station train station.  Prices range from $939,000 to $1,350,000. 

Nonetheless Moore Estate still maintains a special cache with area buyers (in fact we have a buyer from New York who is most interested in Moore Estate over any other area townhouse community, but must sell their home before they can buy).  Sales are still occurring, however, staging, marketing and pricing properly are the key to being the home the real buyers choose.
