Bottom Line: The above statistics point to a “neutral” or “balanced” market - the number of buyers and sellers in the marketplace are equalized. The scales don't tip in either direction, meaning the market is normal without experiencing volatile swings. The Barnegat real estate market is slowing, and significant sale price increases in the future are very unlikely.
Important Note: Economists seem to think there may be a downturn in the next 12 months, so if you are thinking of selling, NOW may be the time!!
