Fort Lee Market Snapshot – Summer 2025

If you’ve been watching the Fort Lee housing market, you’ll know it’s been an active summer. According to the latest Redfin data (June/July 2025), the average home price in Fort Lee is up 14.9% year-over-year, now sitting around $443,000. The market is rated “somewhat competitive” with a Redfin Compete Score of 45/100, meaning buyers are still finding opportunities, but sellers are holding more confidence in pricing and terms.

What This Means for Sellers

A nearly 15% jump in pricing gives Fort Lee homeowners a stronger position when preparing to list. With continued buyer demand and limited inventory, well-positioned properties can command attention and achieve strong offers.

What This Means for Buyers

For buyers, “somewhat competitive” translates to:

Homes may still sell near or above asking price if they’re renovated or well-located.
Offers with solid financing and fewer contingencies stand out.
Having an experienced agent by your side is critical to navigating bidding scenarios without overextending.
