In May 2026, Long Beach Island saw the following changes compared to May 2025:

📉 25% fewer active listings
📈 Higher average list prices
📈 Higher average sale prices

A changing market creates opportunities—but only if you understand how to navigate it. My goal is to provide clients with the local insight and market expertise needed to succeed on LBI.
