What These Numbers Mean for Perth Amboy Buyers and Sellers
The Housing Market Trends module above sets the numbers in context, and the underlying signals point to a market where competitive pressure and softening prices coexist. With 63.1% of homes selling above the asking price and an average sale-to-list ratio of 101.51%, sellers who price accurately are still capturing full value and occasionally a premium. At the same time, the median sale price moved -4.9% year over year, and only 25.1% of listings leave the market within two weeks, so the urgency is uneven across price points and property conditions.
Months of supply sits at 5.5, which is close to the boundary between a seller-leaning and a balanced market. Median time on market is now 90, a +1 day change in market time, and 16.5% of active listings have taken a price reduction. For a buyer, that combination means leverage is available on homes that have been listed for several weeks or have already cut their price, while fresh, well-priced listings in zip codes 08861 and 08862 still draw competing offers. Anchoring an offer to recent per-square-foot comparables near $323.73 is more reliable than reacting to the original list price.
For a seller, the data argues for disciplined pricing from day one rather than testing a high number and correcting later, since the share of listings with price drops shows the cost of overpricing. With 16 homes sold monthly against 84 active listings, positioning matters. Perth Amboy has 423 licensed agents, and separating the consistent performers from the rest is where preparation pays off.

What to Look for in a Perth Amboy Realtor
Choosing an agent on name recognition alone overlooks what actually moves a transaction: measured negotiation results and a track record across a range of price points. Verified performance data offers a clearer signal than advertising reach. Among the 423 licensed agents active in Perth Amboy, EffectiveAgents has ranked 66 based on analyzed outcomes. Chris Ryan at Coldwell Banker is the top ranked agent, with 1752 career transactions and $529.0M in all-time sales volume. That depth matters in a market where 63.1% of homes sell above list and the average sale-to-list ratio is 101.51%, because negotiating both offer structure and price concessions in the same deal requires experience. Whether a home sits in zip code 08861 or 08862, an agent who understands local per-square-foot pricing near $323.73 can position a listing to sell within the 90 median rather than lingering and drawing a price cut. When comparing candidates, read review patterns for consistency over time, not just the total count. Ryan's 64 reviews illustrate the kind of sustained feedback worth weighing.
How We Rank Perth Amboy 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 Perth Amboy 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.

Perth Amboy Real Estate Agent FAQs
Who is the best real estate agent in Perth Amboy, NJ?
The top ranked agent in Perth Amboy, NJ by EffectiveAgents analysis is Chris Ryan at Coldwell Banker, with 1752 career transactions, 64 reviews, and $529.0M in all-time sales volume. EffectiveAgents ranks agents using verified transaction history, sales volume, and client review patterns rather than advertising, evaluating 66 of the 423 licensed agents in the area. The strongest fit depends on your property type, price point, and timeline, so compare several ranked agents before deciding.
How were these Perth Amboy 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 Perth Amboy?
Our data covers 423 real estate agents serving the Perth Amboy area. The count represents agents with transaction activity recorded in our Perth Amboy market data, not simply everyone holding a license.
What does the median sale price in Perth Amboy mean for sellers?
Perth Amboy's median sale price is $451,701 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 Perth Amboy?
The median home in Perth Amboy sells in about 90, though that figure reflects a +1 day change in market time compared with last year. Your actual timeline depends on pricing accuracy, condition, and location within zip codes 08861 and 08862. Well-priced homes still move quickly, with 25.1% of listings leaving the market within two weeks, while overpriced homes account for much of the 16.5% of listings taking reductions. Accurate initial pricing and preparation are the largest factors in a shorter sale.
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 Perth Amboy 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 Perth Amboy 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 Perth Amboy 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 Perth Amboy realtor before hiring them?
Ask how many homes they have closed in Perth Amboy 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.
