Price Reduced! 8/18 - 8/25

Welcome to another edition of Price Reduced!

For all the newcomers to this blog, Price Reduced! takes a look at a handful of significant price reductions across Northern NJ. The purpose of this exercise is to serve as proof that the Northern New Jersey real estate market has long since been overvalued and has started the long hard decline back to the mean. These listings are in no way an endorsement by me, nor do I believe they are a bargain or a value. Even reduced, I still believe these homes are still grossly overpriced.

On to the list!

Call me naive, but I'm amazed that people are buying at all right now. With prices clearly on the decline and dire warnings in the media almost every day, why would someone pounce on a house just because the price is lowered by $20,000?

Seems crazy to me, but then what do I know.

2309620 in Stillwater was reduced another $10K since this list was compiled.

It's now $409,000 from $469000.

And only on the market for 16 days!

Very "motivated" sellers?

i am amazed at the attitude
of many people. They are just
not familiar with whats going
on in the real estate market right
now.

they feel it effects everyone
else and not them.

also, well , its North Jersey,
cant happen here. The Bergen
County crowd, they know it
cant happen their.

Its a joke, and I feel many
of these people and in for an
education and wealth goes by by,

Nice new format and very good job.

I hope the prospective buyer are reading it carefully and realzing that the trend is to go SOUTH.
We haven't reached there yet, so hold on to your hard earned money.
Wait on the side lines and watch where the market is heading.

Here in Central Jersey the prices are still sticking to the old norm.
Few reductions 5-10-15-20K, nothing drastic.
The number of SFHs have reduce in August because some homes are removed from the MLS and not because they are getting sold.
Market is very very slow...I mean dead slow.

Can you maybe trim the list for Morris? do a >15% or >20%, whatever fits best?

That's because it won't. Just look at history.
We're always better then anywhere else. Where else can you get so much status for your dollar and be so close to everything important.
Shopping, theater, etc.
