List/Sale Price Ratio
Ho-Ho-Kus continues to reflect a stable and selective real estate market. With 45 homes sold and an average sale price of approximately $1.3M, the borough remains firmly positioned in the upper tier of Northern New Jersey real estate. Homes generally trade very close to their asking prices, and the typical marketing period reflects a thoughtful—but motivated—buyer pool rather than rushed turnover.
For buyers, this means preparation and patience matter. Well-priced homes attract serious interest, especially those with updates or strong location appeal. For sellers, the data supports strong equity and favorable pricing conditions when homes are positioned correctly. Strategic timing, presentation, and negotiation remain key. The Gill Group brings local market insight and pricing strategy to help clients navigate Ho-Ho-Kus with clarity and confidence.
Ho-Ho-Kus is served by a highly involved and community-focused school system, with students attending Ho-Ho-Kus Public School from kindergarten through eighth grade before continuing on to Northern Highlands Regional High School. The district is known for its personalized learning environment, small class sizes, and strong connection between families, educators, and the broader community.
Schools play a significant role in long-term home value and buyer demand, and Ho-Ho-Kus consistently benefits from that relationship. For many buyers, the school structure and community involvement are a major reason the town remains desirable year after year.
