Does anyone read this at all? Why have people driving around town and toss it on every driveway, not to mention the wasted plastics and paper? Wouldn't newspapers save more money that way?

NJ inventory is 31% below pre-pandemic levels. The reason comes down to one monthly number: $2,000.

Here's what's happening:
Homeowners in Princeton, West Windsor, and Montgomery who locked in mortgages under 4% are looking at today's 6%+ rates and doing the math. Trading up into a comparable home often means paying more than $2,000 extra every single month. Most people aren't making that trade.

The result: the homes that would normally cycle back onto the market aren't coming. Owners are renovating, renting out a room, or just staying. Inventory stays compressed. Buyers compete harder for what little comes up.

Analysts expect this dynamic to hold through at least mid-2026. That's not a blip, it's a structural feature of this market.

If you're buying, this context matters for how you approach search and offer strategy. If you're a seller who does need to move, the low supply around you is actually working in your favor.

New Jersey's housing inventory ticked up 8.2% in Q1 2026 compared to last quarter — which sounds encouraging, until you look at the full picture.

The statewide supply still sits at just 2.4 months. For context, a balanced market — where neither buyers nor sellers have a clear upper hand — typically requires around 6 months of supply. We're not even halfway there. And compared to pre-pandemic levels, inventory remains 31% below where it used to be. That gap doesn't close overnight.

For buyers in the Princeton area — whether you're looking in West Windsor, Montgomery Township, or right in the borough — this means competition hasn't meaningfully eased. Yes, you may be seeing a few more listings show up on your alerts. But well-priced homes in desirable school districts are still moving quickly and often above asking. Understanding the supply picture is step one to building a smarter strategy.

We break down how these statewide trends translate to specific neighborhoods at TheWuTeam.com — because the Princeton-area market often moves differently than NJ averages suggest.
