Source: NJMLS Matrix — Fair Lawn, Residential, closed sales August 1–31, 2026 (aggregated from individual listing records; the Matrix Stats report tool was unusable/froze repeatedly this session). August is the most recently completed month as of this update (Sept 18, 2026); September 2026 is still in progress and is excluded from this snapshot. The Active Listings figure above is a current point-in-time count (4 active Residential listings as of Sept 18, 2026, per NJMLS Matrix) rather than a historical count specific to August — a true August point-in-time snapshot could not be pulled this session. Compiled by Hera Realty Group; deemed reliable but not guaranteed.

Year-to-date Jan 1–Aug 31, 2026 · NJMLS Matrix
Source: NJMLS Matrix, Bergen County/Fair Lawn filter — Single Family, Condo/Townhome/Co-op and 2–4 Family, January 1–August 31, 2026, aggregated from individual listing records. New Listings figures above are sourced from the NJMLS Matrix Stats module’s “Number of New Listings” statistic, year-to-date January 1–August 31, 2026, by property category (Single Family: 45; Condo/Townhome/Co-op: 5; 2–4 Family: 2). Single Family's 43-day average days-on-market is skewed upward by one outlier listing (29 Westview Terrace, originally listed in 2024, showing a cumulative 732-day Matrix days-on-market at its January 2026 close); excluding that single listing, the average across the remaining 39 Single Family sales was 25 days. No 2–4 Family sales were recorded year-to-date in Fair Lawn, so median sale price and avg. days on market for that category are shown as n/a rather than fabricated figures.

Source: NJMLS Matrix — Fair Lawn, Residential and Condo/Townhome closed sales, aggregated per calendar month for each row above, October 2025 through July 2026. Active Listings figures reflect the NJMLS Matrix Historic Count of Active Listings report, split by property category (Single Family and Condo/Townhome); Condo/Townhome activity in Fair Lawn was minimal over this period (most months had 0 closed sales and 0 active listings), so those figures are shown as n/a rather than estimated. Close/List price ratios and sale price ranges for Single Family archive months are calculated from the same NJMLS Matrix closed-sale records as the current month figure.
