Garwood, NJ, is a beautiful borough in central Union County. Home to fewer than 5,000 people, the town is served by one elementary school serving students in grades K-8. High school students attend Clark's Arthur L. Johnson High School.     Inventory: There are currently 12 single family homes offered for sale in Garwood at an average list price of $328,958.  Last April there were 15 homes actively listed. The average inventory over the last 12 months is 14 listings, so inventory in Garwood is a bit low. This could be good news for home sellers as a low supply often leads to higher prices.        Prices:  Average sale price in April, 2014 - $339,000 Average sale price in April, 2013 -  $428,000 Average sale price April 2013-April 2014 - $312,026 On average, 1-3 homes are sold in Garwood...

Inventory: There are 10 single family homes currently offered for sale in Garwood, representing an increase in inventory - could it be the spring season of real estate already? Two homes were sold in February which is only slightly below the average sales for 2013.   Prices: The average sale price of a home in Fanwood in February was $270,000 - much lower than the average for earlier months of the winter and much lower than the average for 2013. A cautionary warning, though - with only 2 homes sold, a drop in average sales price isn't necessarily a reason for alarm.  Team Zuhl is here to help you every step of the way.  If you're a Garwood homeowner,  call or email us when you're ready to get your home on the market!

There are currently 6 homes offered for sale in Garwood, ranging in price from $245,000 to $379,000.  Two homes were sold in December which is about average for the year. Inventory fluctuates in such a small town - the peak inventory was 21 homes on the market in September of 2013. As spring nears, likely the inventory will increase.     Prices in Garwood appear to fluctuate more than they actually do. The low valleys you see in the graph are months when no homes were sold.

Garwood is a borough in southern Union County and is home to roughly 7000 residents.  The 400 elementary students in Garwood all attend Lincoln School. Garwood high school students join Clark students at Arthur L. Johnson High School in Clark. Currently, there are 21 homes on the market in Garwood with one completed sale in September. There were 3 completed sales each month this summer, so things are appearing to slow down. Inventory is up, also, with 21 homes now compared to 18-20 all summer. Of course with such a low inventory and with so few homes selling in Garwood, it's difficult to make any generalities about prices. September's average sale price was $359,900, about $20,000 above the average list price. Team Zuhl is here to help you every step of the way. Please call or email us ...

Garwood high school students join Clark students at Arthur L. Johnson High School in Clark. At the end of July, there were 14 homes for sale in Garwood and 3 homes had been sold in July.

Sell my home in Garwood!   Real estate in Garwood is off to a great summer! If you want to get in on the summer market, here are some things you need to know:   First, make any necessary repairs in your home before you list it! Things like leaky roofs, dead light bulbs, and broken windows need to be in working condition before you show your home.  Depending on your time frame and budget, make home improvements that will increase the value of your home. There are some home improvements - like a new front door, for example - that will help to sell your home faster and will increase the price you get for your home.  Educate yourself. Here is a link to a free video called"Preparing your home to sell." It's filled with information that can help you make decisions about what to do. Interview ...

Garwood is a borough in southern Union County and is home to roughly 7000 residents.  The 400 elementary students in Garwood all attend Lincoln School. Garwood high school students join Clark students at Arthur L. Johnson High School in Clark. Inventory in Garwood was up 50% in April as compared ot March and up 100% as compared to February. Sales are up 100% since March.  Homes in Garwood are selling very quickly. Peaking at 5 months on market in March, homes are selling within a month in April.   With inventory increasing, it's not surprising that list price is decreasing. With only 1 or 2 homes sold per month, it's difficult to compare sale price accurately.     For more information on Garwood Real Estate: Garwood Real Estate Market Trends - January-March, 2013 - 04/05/13 How long wil...

Garwood is a borough in southern Union County and is home to roughly 7000 residents.  An analysis of the real estate market in Garwood reveals a dramatic change this year. In winter of 2012, there were 18 homes for sale in Fanwood – the highest of the year. Once spring hit, the homes were sold quickly and now only 7 homes remain on the market. This very low inventory normally presents an opportunity for homeowners who are thinking of selling. When the inventory is low, prices tend to rise, especially when the demand for homes has remained steady. In the case of Garwood, the peak of home sales occurred in the late summer and has dropped since.   The list prices in Garwood have risen  over the last few months, corresponding to an expected decrease in inventory. Sales prices, however, have...

Garwood is located right in the heart of Union County and is a small town with fewer than 5000 residents. The 400 elementary students in Garwood all attend Lincoln School. Garwood high school students join Clark students at Arthur L. Johnson High School in Clark.     For a small town, Garwood currently has more active listings than were available at this time last year but the active inventory is trending downward from a peak in October of last year.   For homeowners interested in selling their homes, the following graph shows good news. The average number of days on the market in Garwood, from listing to contract, is about half of what it was at this time last year. Houses are selling quicker than last winter, so good things could be in the future for the spring market in Garwood!   If...
