Here is what the early summer 2026 market data shows for Bay Head and Mantoloking:
Four homes sold across both communities between May 1 and June 18. The same number as the prior year, same seven-week window.
What changed is how long it took and what sellers walked away with.
Median days on market in 2026: 123.5 days.
Same period in 2025: 38.5 days.
That is a 220.8% increase year over year.
Median sale-to-list ratio in 2026: 93.0%.
Same period in 2025: 98.0%.
A drop of 5.0 percentage points.
At Bay Head and Mantoloking price points, that difference is not small. On a $4 million property, the gap between a 93% and 98% outcome is $200,000. On a $6 million property, it is $300,000.
Twenty-four homes are currently active across 08742 and 08738. Seven came to market since May 1. Four are under contract right now, including a $17,000,000 listing in Bay Head and a $12,500,000 listing in Mantoloking. Buyers have not left this market.
Transactions are happening but the process is taking longer and sellers are negotiating more. If you are thinking about where your home fits in this market, the current numbers give you a clearer picture than anything from six months ago.
