July 2025 Central Bergen County Real Estate Market Update
The Central Bergen County real estate market is holding steady this summer, even during the slower months of July and August. With families on vacation, kids preparing for back-to-school, and college drop-offs in full swing, the housing market often takes a seasonal pause. Still, the numbers show sellers remain in a strong position across River Edge, Oradell, Emerson, New Milford, Bergenfield, and Dumont.
Despite seasonal slowdowns, demand in Bergen County homes for sale remains strong:
Inventory: Just over 1.5 months of supply
Median Days on Market: 14
Median Sold Price: $1,040,000
List-to-Sale Price Ratio: 109%
These numbers confirm that Bergen County is still firmly a seller’s market.
River Edge continues to shine in the Bergen County housing market:
2 months of inventory
Median Sold Price: $1,230,000
Median Days on Market: 15
List-to-Sale Price Ratio: 108%
Homes in River Edge are selling fast and at competitive prices, making it one of the strongest markets this summer.
Both Emerson real estate and Oradell real estate remain in high demand, with inventory staying low and buyers competing for available homes.
Emerson Market Snapshot:
A little over 2 months of inventory
Median Sold Price: $750,000

New Milford continues to see steady growth:
1.5 months of inventory

Median Days on Market: 21

Median Days on Market: 32

While homes take a bit longer to sell here, sellers still benefit from above-list offers.
