Price Reduced! 10/22-10/29
There have been an extrodinary number of price reductions this past week, well over 900 dated 9/22 to 9/29. If I waited until the end of day today, there will have been well over 1000 price reductions in Northern NJ this week. The price drops are visible on both the upper and lower ends of the market, I tried to select a few out of this list to illustrate that.
Note to all the prospective buyers in Northern New Jersey. Please practice restraint and have some patience. It makes no sense to jump into this falling market. Your agents will likely not share this information with you, they have a vested interest in you purchasing, information like this would likely scare you off. Heck, it has scared me off.
This industry is based on the buyers not having access to information. So here you are buyers, you have the information, now use your heads and don't turn into the next set of fools.
Let's take a look at some of the notable drops.

Now prices are going to Insane from Insane.
LOL!
Grim keep up the good work
Informing those gullible to the Real Estate spin.
Sellers are starting to Panic. But this is only the beginning.
Soon price drops of 10% at a clip going to hit. so a few of those and ytuo have 35%-40%.
35%-40% down will not take long.
Best guess less than 18 months.
35-40% down takes you back to about ONLY about 2002 prices. So we aren't talking much here folks.
FRIGGEN CRASH!
I was at the Verona house last weekend. It's not bad, on the border of Essex Fells. It has, however, no real back yard, no real garage, and shares a driveway in common with a house almost directly behind it.
They did a nice job on the remodel, except for painting the brick in front, I'd have liked to see it refaced with stone more fitting on a craftsman.
It's still overpriced, I might have considered it at five.

This is by far the best RE blog for me, since I live in NNJ. Anyway just wanted to thank you again for all this work. I have email a link to this page to a bunch of my friends who are all looking for housing information. I tell everyone that in 18-36 months, you will be better off in this housing market. some of the homes out there are just insane.
Can anyone give us some statistics on Westchester county. Are prices falling also?
Nice job, Grim.
I don't understand why realtors don't like a quick price reduction. If price drop 50% in a short period of time, people like me will buy. Buy and sell activities should be more important to realtors than price. They make money out of transactions not high price.
The housing market is dead. prices dropping and desperation rising.
Good news buyers.
Don't waste your time bidding. Sellers need to be pounded into submission first.
The $3 mil + seller is desperate for real. Watch this one. At about $70,000 a year in taxes and drying up income/assets. Panic.
Watch this one.
Excellent blog, I have averaged over $200,000 in income for 10 plus years, I am 41 y/o and have owned 1 condo and 2 houses, the last of which I sold in 2001. Obviously I sold too soon, no regrets...next. What just amazes me is who are these people who are paying these prices? The S&P 500 average is equivalent to 1998 prices, inflation is roaring, property taxes are rising, fuel costs are up significantly...I am by nature an optimist but seriously a lot of folks are gonna be broke. Am I wrong?
Great site....I had seen a really nice home in the Saddle River/Upper Saddle River area (not sure which town line it straddled) that was listed for $9.95 MM in May. Got sold in late August for $8.95 MM. Taxes around $60K.
Seen other high-end homes that are still listed and unsold.
I have been following a site now for almost 2 years and I have found it to be both reliable and profitable. They post daily and their stock trades have been beating
the indexes easily.
Take a look at Wallstreetwinnersonline.com
