Weehawken: a $902K median year to date.

August 2026 in Weehawken kept the story readers of these reports have come to expect. Weehawken's waterfront condo market, anchored by Port Imperial, trades on views, parking, and NYC ferry access more than on broad market swings. The townhouse-condo median came in at $760,000, +83.1% year over year, on 7 closings and a 23-day median time to sale. Active inventory stands at 40 units, roughly 5.9 months of supply, approaching balance on that measure alone. With only 7 townhouse-condo closings in August, one month is a thin sample; the year-to-date median of $902,500 (+24.5%) on 58 closings is the more reliable gauge.

Year to date, the townhouse-condo median is running at $902,500, +24.5% versus the same eight-month stretch of 2025. New listings through August total 125 (-8.8%), and closings total 58 (+5.5%). The pace has been steady rather than dramatic, which is exactly the profile most Weehawken sellers should want heading into the fall listing cycle.

The numbers below come from the New Jersey REALTORS Local Market Update for closings recorded during August 2026. We include Hudson County context and, where useful, a look at the single family segment for the same period.

The headline numbers

What the August data actually means

Townhouse-Condo homes in Weehawken sold at 99.4% of list price in August, on a median of 23 days from list to contract. The August 2025 comp was 98.5% at 49 days, so compare that pace and pricing directly against the +83.1% change in the median to see how demand is holding.

Inventory tells the same story. There are 40 active townhouse-condo listings on the market, -4.8% versus a year ago, and months of supply sits at 5.9. For context, the six-month threshold is where analysts usually mark the line between seller and buyer conditions; Weehawken is approaching balance on that reading.

The year-to-date picture

Through the first eight months of 2026, Weehawken has recorded 58 townhouse-condo closings, +5.5% versus the same stretch of 2025. That is the more useful number for anyone modeling a listing decision or a purchase; monthly closings are noisy at this sample size, but eight-month totals smooth the local sample and match the pattern most agents in Hudson County have been calling since spring.

The YTD median of $902,500 (+24.5%) is the steadier read on where the market is actually trading, since it smooths out the month-to-month swings in which homes happen to close. New listings through August totaled 125, -8.8% versus the prior year, which explains why inventory has compressed even as demand kept absorbing what came online.

What it means for buyers

If you are shopping Weehawken this fall, the August numbers give you a clear read on the operating environment. 5.9 months of supply means you are still competing; 40 active listings is your working set at any given moment; and a 23-day median tells you how quickly well-priced homes are going under contract. Neighborhoods worth watching closely include Port Imperial, The Waterfront, and Uptown, each with its own price band and pace within the Weehawken market.

Practical moves that are working in this market:

• Get fully underwritten pre-approval, not just a prequalification letter. Sellers in Weehawken are seeing multiple offers on well-priced listings, and a fully approved buyer wins the tie.
• Tour within 48 to 72 hours of a listing going active. A 23-day median means the offer deadline on strong listings often lands the following weekend.
• Do not throw out the YTD context. One month of comps is a small sample; the eight-month +24.5% YTD median move is a better guide to what you can expect over a 90-day search window.
• Ask your agent for the specific micro-market data. Weehawken splits by neighborhood, price band, and school district. County or town-wide numbers are the starting point, not the finish line.

What it means for sellers

The August data is a good backdrop for a fall listing in Weehawken. Median climbed +83.1% year over year, pace held at 23 days, and homes cleared at 99.4% of list. That is the profile of a market that still rewards accurate pricing and clean presentation.

What matters most right now:

• Price against the most recent three to five comps, not last year's peaks. Weehawken buyers are informed; a listing priced 2 to 3 percent above the last strong comp usually sits, then discounts.
• Photography, staging, and pre-listing prep are baseline. With 40 active townhouse-condo listings competing for attention, your online listing is your first showing.
• Use the fall window. October and early November still bring serious buyers before the holiday slowdown; listing now beats waiting for the spring surge of new inventory.
• Get a comp-driven valuation before you commit to a number. A local agent walking your block is better data than any automated valuation tool.

The bottom line

Weehawken in August 2026 continued the pattern the market has traced all year: steady demand, disciplined pricing, and a working set of active inventory that keeps buyers competing. The town-level numbers rhyme with what is happening across Hudson County, with local specifics that make micro-market pricing more important than ever.

Median $760K. 23 days on market. 99.4% of list received. 5.9 months of supply. That is what a healthy balanced market looks like heading into fall.
