Frequently Asked Home Seller Questions (FAQs)
Ready to Sell in Hoboken or Jersey City?
While the county-wide figures offer a broad view, performance varies significantly from neighborhood to neighborhood — and that variation often determines how quickly and profitably your home sells.
Jersey City Snapshot: In August 2025, Jersey City’s median sale price was $727,000, up 2.8% year-over-year. Homes moved faster than the county average, with typical time on market at 42 days.
Hoboken Holds Premium Status: Hoboken remains one of the strongest submarkets. In August 2025, the median sale price reached $967,500, a 9.0% gain from the prior year, with homes selling in just 28 days on average. In ZIP 07030, the average home value sits at $816,840, down slightly year-over-year — proof that even premium markets contain micro-shifts.
Union City Growth: Union City has seen the fastest year-over-year price growth in Hudson County. In August 2025, the median price climbed to $610,000, up 21% year-over-year, with average days on market at 54 days.
For sellers, this means that pricing strategy must reflect neighborhood-level demand rather than broad averages. A condo steps from the PATH station may move in weeks, while a similar home a few blocks inland might take longer and require different marketing tactics.

Pricing your home correctly from the start is one of the most powerful ways to achieve a fast, top-dollar sale. In Hudson County, where pricing trends shift quickly depending on neighborhood and inventory levels, a strategic pricing approach can determine whether your listing attracts one offer or ten.

We evaluate:
Recent sales and list-to-sell ratios in your immediate neighborhood
Absorption rates and seasonal buyer behavior
Competing inventory and average DOM for your property type
Property condition, features, and lifestyle amenities that influence buyer perception .

While every home sale is unique, the process follows a clear, proven sequence that helps our clients sell faster and with less stress. Here’s what to expect from listing to closing with The Jill Biggs Group.
Your agent meets with you to understand your goals, review your property, and determine a pricing strategy based on real-time Hudson County market data. This typically happens one to two weeks before your listing goes live.
We provide expert guidance on decluttering, staging, and optimizing your home’s presentation. Professional photography, video, and floor plans are completed during this phase. Preparation typically takes one to three weeks depending on your timeline.
Your property goes live on MLS and top real estate platforms. We launch a multi-channel marketing campaign including social media, digital ads, direct mail, and email to 90,000+ qualified buyers and agents.
Our team manages showings, fields inquiries, and shares real-time feedback. Most listings receive strong activity within the first two weeks.
We help you review offers strategically — evaluating contingencies, timelines, and terms to secure the best possible outcome. This stage often lasts three to five days.
Once an offer is accepted, our transaction team coordinates attorney review, inspections, and deadlines. This stage typically takes one to two weeks.
For financed buyers, we support the appraisal process to ensure everything stays on track. This step usually takes one to two weeks.
We manage final repairs, walkthrough scheduling, and all closing logistics.
Ownership transfers, funds are disbursed, and your home is officially sold. We’re by your side through every step.

While selling FSBO (For Sale By Owner) might seem like a way to save on commission fees, data from the 2024 National Association of Realtors (NAR) shows it often results in lower sale prices and longer timelines. FSBO sales accounted for just 6% of home sales in 2024; the lowest ever, indicating most sellers rely on agent expertise and wider market reach.
The typical FSBO home sold for a median price of $380,000 in 2024, which was $55,000 less than the median sale price of $435,000 for agent-assisted homes.

Yes, you can list FSBO on popular platforms, but these listings receive less visibility. Also, you’ll manage inquiries, showings, negotiations, contracts, and legal paperwork alone, increasing complexity and legal risk.
When you work with a full-service real estate team like The Jill Biggs Group in Hudson County, New Jersey, the typical total commission ranges between 5% and 6% of the final sale price. This fee is generally split between the listing agent and the buyer’s agent, reflecting the comprehensive marketing, expert negotiation, and personalized service you receive from listing through closing.
For example:
On a $700,000 home, total commissions would be approximately $35,000 to $42,000
On a $875,000 home, about $43,750 to $52,500
On a $1,400,000 home, roughly $70,000 to $84,000
Commission is always negotiable. The exact amount depends on your home's unique features, the services you need, market conditions, and the level of expertise provided. Experienced agents like those at Jill Biggs Group invest heavily in professional staging, premium marketing, and skilled negotiation, all designed to maximize your net proceeds and streamline the selling process. In addition to commissions, sellers should budget for attorney fees, closing costs, inspections, repairs, and prorated property taxes. Your agent should provide a detailed breakdown early on so you understand all expected expenses clearly.
Commission structures and amounts vary by brokerage and individual agreement.
Most well-priced listings see strong activity and offers within the first 2–3 weeks. Once under contract, closing typically happens 30–60 days later depending on buyer financing and contingencies. Cash deals may close even faster.
Spring and early summer traditionally bring the highest buyer activity and strongest offers, but Hudson County homes sell year-round. Proper pricing and presentation matter more than seasonality, and fall can be a smart time to sell when competition is lower.
High-return updates include: fresh paint and lighting improvements, landscaping and exterior clean-up, professional staging, and targeted kitchen or bathroom refreshes if needed. Our team will create a custom prep plan for your property based on ROI and market demand.
