Selling a Home in Warren, by the Numbers
Over the past twelve months the median Warren sale went under contract in 24 days and closed at 99.3% of asking. The record says three things matter most. Timing: March and April launches have sold in 18 to 19 days at the highest rate over ask across seven years of data, while November launches took 46 days and closed at 96.4% of ask. Pricing: over the past two years, sellers who never had to cut their price sold in a median of 19 days at 100% of their original ask, while sellers who cut at least once took 85 days and kept 90.9% of it. And your price band: the market moves fastest between $750,000 and $2,000,000, and slows at both ends.
These figures cover every residential property type in the MLS, including townhouses and condominiums, not detached houses alone. Every number on this page comes from Garden State MLS records for Warren Township held in a private data warehouse, the same database behind the Warren market page and the Warren Housing Index. Updated August 20, 2026.
When to list
Across 1,503 Warren listings taken since 2019 that went on to close, the month you launch moves both speed and price. March launches: median 19 days on market, 57.1%% closing at or above ask. April: 18 days. November: 46 days and 96.4%% of ask, the weakest month by a wide margin. The full month by month table, and why the spring premium exists, is in the listing month analysis.
Price it right the first time
The single largest split in the Warren record is not the month or the price band. It is whether the original asking price held. Trailing 24 months, 350 closed sales:
| Pricing path | Sales | Median days | Share of original ask kept | Sold over original ask |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Never reduced the price | 287 | 19 | 100.0% | 44% |
| Cut the price at least once | 63 | 85 | 90.9% | 0% |
Read it plainly: not one Warren seller in two years cut their price and then recovered above the original number. An overpriced launch does not just cost time, the eventual buyer negotiates from the reduction, not from the ambition. This is why a data based launch price matters more than any other single decision.
How your price band behaves
Same 24 month window, closed sales by final sale price:
| Price band | Sales | Median days | Median of ask | Sold over ask |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Under $750,000 | 75 | 34 | 95.8% | 24% |
| $750,000 to $999,999 | 85 | 21 | 100.0% | 48% |
| $1,000,000 to $1,249,999 | 45 | 20 | 100.0% | 40% |
| $1,250,000 to $1,499,999 | 56 | 19 | 100.0% | 39% |
| $1,500,000 to $1,999,999 | 56 | 21 | 100.0% | 43% |
| $2,000,000 and up | 33 | 41 | 99.0% | 24% |
The middle of the market, $750,000 to $2,000,000, clears in about three weeks with 39%% to 48%% of sales closing over ask. Both ends run slower: the under $750,000 band is dominated by attached product with its own dynamics, and above $2,000,000 the buyer pool thins, 41 median days and one in four sales over ask. If you own in the middle bands, preparation and launch price decide whether you are in the over ask group. At the top, patience and positioning matter more than timing.
What could change these numbers
Warren is a small market. A single quarter can swing on twenty sales, which is why this page leans on 24 month and 7 year windows. These figures cover every residential property type in the MLS, including townhouses and condominiums, not detached houses alone. Sales under $200,000 are excluded as likely non arms length transfers. Days on market measures list date to contract date as reported to the MLS.
What a property specific analysis adds
This page describes the market. It cannot price your house. A property specific analysis runs the same database against your street, your lot, your square footage and your condition, and shows which recent sales a buyer's agent will actually use against you. That is the launch price conversation worth having before any sign goes up.
