What’s Driving New Jersey’s Hot Housing Market in Leonia and Fort Lee? “New Jersey home-price momentum is real—and Fort Lee & Leonia typically feel the upswing first. I’m Scott Selleck with The Selleck Group. Here’s how to win in this market.” “Statewide, we’re seeing steady price growth and renewed buyer activity. Historically, the eastern corridor leads to Bergen trends thanks to quick access to NYC, a broad mix of condos, co-ops, townhomes, and single-family homes, plus walkable convenience.

When the state strengthens, this corridor usually moves first—and fastest. “If you’re selling, your advantage is preparation.

• Price with purpose: align with nearby recents to land in the instant ‘yes’ zone.

.Presentation that pops: professional photos, crisp listing copy, and light staging shift ‘maybe’ to ‘must-see.’

Sell the commute & convenience: transit, shopping, and daily amenities are big differentiators here. • Launch strategy: pre-market buzz, Coming-Soon exposure, and a strong first weekend compress time on market and keep price reductions off the table.” “For buyers, waiting can cost you in a rising market. Get pre-approved early to strengthen offers and shorten timelines. Define must-haves versus nice-to-haves so you can act decisively.

e offer-ready when a well-priced Fort Lee condo or Leonia single-family and think in total monthly: HOA or maintenance, taxes, and insurance—so you’re confident in your comfort zone.” OST bullets: “Pre-Approval • Must-Haves • Offer-Ready • Total Monthly” B-roll: Lender meeting, checklist, touring property, calculator overlay Investors & Developers

(1:55–2:20) “Momentum supports quality projects. Focus on renovations that address layout, lighting, storage, and modern systems. Select micro-locations with easier transit and daily convenience—those that rent and resell more quickly. Model conservatively: build in carrying costs and let upside be a bonus, not the plan.” What I’m Watching Next “I’m watching new-to-market listings, absorption pace, and foot traffic at opens along Palisade Ave., Main St., and key Leonia streets. If days on market compress, expect firmer pricing.

I’ll calibrate strategy by property type—condos/co-ops versus single-family—because momentum can shift quickly here.” “Bottom line: statewide strength is showing up where it always does first—commuter-friendly Bergen County. Sellers, this is your moment of advantage—price and present with discipline, and launch with a plan.
