Eatontown Single-Family Home Market Report
Eatontown's single-family home market in October 2026 is a seller's market with more room for buyers than its neighbors. Eleven homes closed — the most in over a year — at a median of $930,000, and buyers paid an average of 102.52% of list price, a sharp rebound from about 93% in September. Homes sold in a median of 19 days. But supply is noticeably looser than in most nearby towns: 25 homes for sale and 4.17 months of supply, up 62.3% from a year ago. The median estimated home value is $819,760, up 4.42% year-over-year and 3.54% in October alone — below the county's most recent $873,240, which makes Eatontown one of the more accessible single-family markets in this part of Monmouth County.

Why Single-Family Data Tells a Different Story
Eatontown has a large share of condos and townhomes, so blended all-property figures look very different from the single-family market. Think of it like a batting average: a blended number puts every property type in the lineup. This report isolates single-family homes only. In October, that market split clearly in two—well-priced, move-in-ready homes drew bidding wars, while larger, higher-priced homes sat longer and sold under asking.

Market Analysis — What the Numbers Mean
For single-family sellers:
October showed both sides of Eatontown's market in the same month. Every home that sold within 17 days and reported a ratio went over asking — 216 Wall St by 26.68% in 17 days, 267 Wyckoff Rd by 10.76% in 14, and 9 Campbell Dr by 9.42% in just 6. Four of the five homes that took 19 days or more sold under list, including 73 Windsor Dr, which sat 85 days and closed 10.9% below asking. With 25 homes for sale and supply up 62% from a year ago, buyers can afford to wait on a home they think is overpriced. Think of it like a busier store: shoppers still grab the well-priced items fast, but they walk right past anything with the wrong price tag. The list price you start with matters more here than in Eatontown's tighter neighboring towns.
For single-family buyers:
Eatontown offers something rare in this part of the county right now: choice. Twenty-five single-family homes were for sale at the end of October, with a median of 64 days on the market, and the median estimated value of $819,760 sits below the county figure. Larger and higher-priced homes are where the negotiating room is — 102 Parker Rd ($1,350,000), 14 Copperfield Ct ($1,250,000), and 125 Broad St ($750,000) all closed 3% to 4% under list. But don't expect a discount on a fresh, well-priced listing: those are still drawing multiple offers and selling within about two weeks.
The PSA perspective on the pipeline:
Two signs suggest the market is working through its stale inventory. New contracts doubled to 8 in October, and several of the homes that went pending had been on the market a long time — 223 Tinton Ave after 146 days, 201 Knox Ave after 110, and 2 Sam Dr after 95. That's typically what happens after price reductions bring a listing in line with the market. Months of supply also eased from about 4.5 to 4.17. The pending homes carry a median list price of $989,000, so November's closings may skew higher-priced again. The estimated home value jumped 3.54% in October but is up only 0.5% over three months, so the longer trend is steady rather than surging.
Mansion Tax Note: For transactions at or above $1,000,001, New Jersey's Mansion Tax (now the "Graduated Percent Fee," P.L. 2025, c. 69, effective July 10, 2025) is paid by the seller at a graduated rate: 1% from $1M–$2M, 2% from $2M–$2.5M, 2.5% from $2.5M–$3M, 3% from $3M–$3.5M, and 3.5% above $3.5M — applied to the full purchase price, not just the amount above each threshold. Most Eatontown sales fall below the threshold, but the top of the market crosses it: 102 Parker Rd at $1,350,000 owes about $13,500, and 14 Copperfield Ct at $1,250,000 owes about $12,500. With the pending median list price at $989,000, a bidding war on a home listed just under $1 million can push the sale across the line — and bring a fee of about $10,000 that wouldn't apply at list price. Factor this into your net proceeds calculation before listing, not after an offer arrives.

Source: Realtors Property Resource (RPR) Market Snapshot, 10/31/2026. *Eatontown single-month sold medians rest on roughly 1–11 closings and swing with the mix of homes sold — the +35.77% one-year and +61.74% three-year figures reflect an October with several larger homes, not price growth of that size. The estimated-value trend (+4.42% in one year, +28.54% in three) is the reliable read on appreciation. Estimated values are model-generated, not formal appraisals. Median List Price's 24- and 36-month figures are omitted — RPR's own data shows a flat ~$469,900 list-price baseline before mid-2024, consistent with a change in RPR's list-price data source rather than a real market shift.

The fastest sales went over list; most homes that took longer than about three weeks sold below it.
Is it a seller's or buyer's market for single-family homes in Eatontown?
RPR classifies Eatontown as a seller's market, but it's closer to balanced than most nearby towns. Months of supply is 4.17 — above the 3-month mark that usually signals a clear seller's market — and up 62.3% from a year ago, with 25 single-family homes for sale. Sellers of well-priced homes still have the upper hand; buyers have real leverage on listings that have been sitting.

The 10 most recent sales had a median of $429 per square foot, ranging from $280 to $699 — with small homes at the top of that range. Price per square foot is a useful benchmark, never a substitute for a full comparative market analysis.

Eatontown had a strong October: 11 closings, the most in over a year, at 102.52% of list price in a median of 19 days.
