***Please note that we pull these Maplewood and South Orange home sale prices and stats from the GSMLS statistics, so "Original Listing Price" and "Days On Market" only include its current listing, not the full history of a listing. For example,if the listing agent took it off the market to change the price and put it back on as a new listing,or a listiing had previously expired and was relisted, the previous listing is not included in gsmls' Original List Price or Days On Market calculations. If you'd like to know the complete history of a specific listing, we'll be happy to get you that information. Furthermore, when we pull comps for you prior to any home purchase, we will provide a more in depth analysis for you. February 2010 Home Sale Prices and Market Stats  MAPLEWOOD

South Orange NJ Home Sales & Market
Trends
Data compiled from the GSMLS. Deemed reliable, but not guaranteed.
Interested in a complimentary market analysis of your Maplewood or South Orange New Jersey home? Or receiving monthly home sale updates by email? Just fill out the form below. 
Accepting An Offer >Offers and Counter Offers
Many of the offers real agents submit for prospective buyers aren't exactly what the sellers want. The price may be lower than they are asking or there might be terms included in the offer that will require negotiation. What happens after the offer is submitted?
The seller's real estate agent will present the offer to the sellers, along with the buyer's qualifications. If the sellers accept the offer, then a purchase agreement is written and signed by both parties. If the sellers counter the offer, the next action is initiated by the buyers when they make a response, either accepting the counter offer or countering it with yet another figure. If you want to buy a particular house, your chances of succeeding are greater if your initial offer is as close to the asking price as possible. You could save money by engaging in lengthy negotiations, but you run the risk of losing the home if a more attractive offer comes in from another buyer.
