Real Estate Market Report - Cape May County - June 2022

Market Report! Here s a quick Real Estate market report of most of Cape May County. Included is a recap of all sold properties(SFH, Land, Condo, etc) in the month of June 2022 for a given area; as well as a current look at the current inventory of residential single family homes(SFH) in an area as of July 2nd, 2022. Data is compiled from the Cape May County MLS and is deemed and accurate snapshot of the area's market statistics, however does not include any sales outside of this MLS.

The trend in Cape May, West Cape May, and Cape May Point for the month of June was fewer properties closing than the month prior and to end the month less active properties on the market.

The City of Cape May saw the median list & sale price rise month over month. West Cape May saw a dramatic drop in median sale price, however given the small 1 sample size(1 property) this isn't abnormal to see month-to-month. Lastly, Cape May Point saw no properties close in June which has happened several months over the past year+ given the low amount of inventory. The 8 active listings in Cape May Point for the second month in a row is the highest the area has seen in well over a year.
