What These Numbers Mean for Clifton Buyers and Sellers
Clifton's housing market carries a median sale price of $619,590, with prices moving +3.3% year over year, a shift worth reading alongside the Housing Market Trends module above. The clearest signal for negotiating leverage is the 2.5 months of supply, which sits well below the six months that typically separates a seller's market from a buyer's market. Reinforcing that, 27.3% of listings leave the market within two weeks and 69.9% of homes close above their asking price, while the sale-to-list ratio holds at 105.79%.
For buyers, this combination means competitive pricing is still the norm on well-presented homes, and offers at or above list price are common. That said, only 11.7% of listings have recorded a price reduction, so the properties that do cut price often signal room to negotiate. With 148 active listings against 60 monthly sales and 198 pending, buyers have modest but real choice.
For sellers, the data supports pricing close to recent comparable sales rather than reaching, since demand is measured, not frantic. Median days on market currently reads 35, reflecting a -24 days change in market time, so timing and preparation matter more than they did a year ago. Across the city's zip codes, from 07011 through 07015, conditions vary block to block, which is where local expertise pays off. With 967 licensed agents working Clifton, choosing one whose track record matches your price point and timeline is the single most controllable factor in your outcome.

What to Look for in a Clifton Realtor
Name recognition and a familiar billboard tell you little about how an agent will perform on your specific transaction. The measurable signals, closed volume, transaction count, and consistent review history, matter far more. In Clifton, EffectiveAgents has analyzed 615 annual transactions to rank 124 agents out of 967 licensed locally. The top-ranked agent, Ewa Miragliotta at Coldwell Banker Realty, has closed 197 transactions and $86.7M in all-time sales volume, backed by 100 client reviews. That depth matters in a market where 69.9% of homes sell above list and the sale-to-list ratio holds at 105.79%, because writing or countering offers under those conditions is where negotiation experience shows. An agent who works consistently across Clifton's zip codes, including 07012 and 07013, understands how pricing and buyer demand differ from one pocket of the city to the next. When reviewing candidates, look past a single glowing testimonial and study the pattern: volume of reviews over time, repeat and referral business, and whether the feedback reflects the price range and property type you are buying or selling.
How We Rank Clifton Real Estate Agents
Our rankings are built from verified MLS transaction data, not advertising spend. For every agent we analyze more than fifteen performance signals, including sales volume in your city and zip code, recent and all-time transactions, days on market, negotiation results (how far above or below list price an agent's clients actually close), price-point fit, and verified reviews. The agents shown first are those whose verified results put them at the top of the Clifton market today.
Agents cannot pay for placement in these rankings. The underlying data refreshes as new closed transactions are reported, so rankings shift with real market performance. Learn how we rank agents.

Clifton Real Estate Agent FAQs
Who is the best real estate agent in Clifton, NJ?
The top-ranked agent in Clifton, NJ, based on EffectiveAgents data is Ewa Miragliotta at Coldwell Banker Realty, with 197 closed transactions, 100 client reviews, and $86.7M in all-time sales volume. Rankings are not based on advertising spend or name recognition. EffectiveAgents analyzed 615 local transactions to measure agents on verified closings, sale-to-list performance, and review consistency. The best agent for you is the one whose track record aligns with your price point, neighborhood, and timeline, so compare several ranked candidates before deciding.
How were these Clifton real estate agents ranked?
Rankings are built from verified MLS transaction data. We analyze more than fifteen performance signals for every agent, including sales volume in your city and zip code, recent and all-time transactions, days on market, negotiation results, price-point fit, and verified reviews. Agents cannot pay for placement.
How many real estate agents are in Clifton?
Our data covers 967 real estate agents serving the Clifton area. The count represents agents with transaction activity recorded in our Clifton market data, not simply everyone holding a license.
What does the median sale price in Clifton mean for sellers?
Clifton's median sale price is $619,590 as of August 2026. Half of recent sales closed above that figure and half below. It is a useful baseline for understanding the market, but an experienced local agent will price your home against comparable recent sales in your neighborhood, not the citywide median.
How long does it take to sell a house in Clifton?
The median home in Clifton currently takes 35 to sell, reflecting a -24 days change in market time compared with last year. Actual timelines vary with pricing, condition, and location across the city's zip codes. With 27.3% of listings going under contract within two weeks, accurately priced and well-prepared homes still move quickly, while overpriced listings tend to sit and eventually require a reduction, as seen in the 11.7% of listings that record price drops. Pricing to recent comparable sales is the most reliable way to shorten your timeline.
Does it cost anything to use EffectiveAgents?
No. EffectiveAgents is free for home buyers and sellers, with no obligation to work with any agent we match you with.
Do agents pay to be ranked or featured?
No. Agents cannot pay for placement anywhere in these rankings. Positions are earned from verified transaction performance only.
What commission do Clifton realtors charge?
Commissions are negotiable and vary by agent, service level, and transaction. There is no set rate, and recent industry changes have made commission structures more flexible than ever. Discuss the structure directly with your agent before signing a listing or buyer agreement.
Should I use a local Clifton agent or a national brand?
The individual agent matters more than the brand on the sign. Offices within the same national franchise vary widely in performance, and the agent you hire, not the logo, prices your home, negotiates your contract, and manages your closing. A strong local agent brings firsthand knowledge of Clifton neighborhoods, pricing patterns, and buyer activity. Compare agents on verified local results such as recent sales, days on market, and negotiation outcomes rather than name recognition.
What questions should I ask a Clifton realtor before hiring them?
Ask how many homes they have closed in Clifton in the past year, what their average sale-to-list ratio is, and how much of their business is in your neighborhood and price range. Ask how they will market your home or find you listings, and how often they will communicate. Strong agents answer with specifics. Verified transaction data is the fastest way to confirm what you hear.
