These NJ counties saw the most home price reductions in October

High mortgage rates have slowed down the real estate market in October, with less home purchase applications and a drop in pending sales. But inventory continued to increase nationally, median listing prices decreased slightly and many properties for sale saw price cuts. Marking the 36th straight month of increases, inventory levels continued to grow in October with a 7.4% year-over-year increase and a 1.9% month-over-month increase. And while inventory remains 6.7% below pre-pandemic norms, this represents the narrowest difference so far, said Realtor.com's October Housing Trends Report . The Northeast continued to be the leading region in the nation for inventory growth, with a 16.5% increase from last year. Listings typically spent about 63 days on the market, which is about one more day than last year and two more days than the previous month.

And 20.5% of listings had price reductions in October. In New Jersey, there were 21,759 active listings in October, up 23.63% from the

From NAACP Co-Founder to Black Millennial Homeowner

On a mild morning in Forest Hill, sunlight strikes the south-facing breakfast nook at 54 Abington Avenue at an angle that feels deliberate, almost engineered. Framed in 1875, the residence stands as an asymmetrical mass of rusticated brownstone, Roman brick, and steep late-Victorian gables. In the front yard, an autumn cherry blossom has all but a few leaves left to fall, alongside an apple tree. Inside the kitchen, 34-year-old commercial real estate professional Terrell Simmons stands watching the light pool across the restored floorboards.

By the following spring, the familiar Grants signs were coming down across New York and the rest of the country.
