Market trends, Early 2026

The Freehold market, by the numbers.

Freehold's headline numbers reflect a genuinely split market. The Borough's older, attached, and condominium housing pulls the median down, while Freehold Township's larger single-family and estate homes pull the top of the range past $1 million. The result is a town median well below the Monmouth County figure, which is part of why Freehold keeps drawing buyers priced out of the coastal towns to the east.

Frequently asked questions.

What is the average home price in Freehold, NJ?

Freehold spans two municipalities that share the 07728 ZIP code: the walkable Borough and the larger Township. Borough capes, Victorians, and condos are among the more attainable entry points in central Monmouth, while Township single-family colonials and newer subdivisions sit higher, and estate pockets in areas like Monmouth Heights and Freehold Pointe can exceed $1 million. Call 888-327-6555 for a current Freehold-specific breakdown.

Is Freehold Borough different from Freehold Township?

Yes. They are two separate municipalities. The Borough is the roughly 1.9-square-mile county seat with a historic, walkable downtown along Main Street, while Freehold Township is the roughly 38-square-mile suburban municipality that completely surrounds it. They have separate governments and separate PreK-8 school districts but share the 07728 ZIP code, and both feed the Freehold Regional High School District.

How is the commute from Freehold to New York City?

Freehold has no train station of its own. Most NYC commuters drive Route 9 to NJ Transit bus service (routes 131, 135, and 139 to the Port Authority, plus Academy service to Wall Street) or drive to the nearest North Jersey Coast Line stations in Matawan-Aberdeen, Asbury Park, or Long Branch. Route 33, Route 18, and Route 537 connect the area, with I-195 and the Garden State Parkway a short drive east.

Which schools serve Freehold, NJ?

Freehold Borough and Freehold Township run separate public districts for PreK through 8th grade. Older students attend the Freehold Regional High School District, which serves six western Monmouth towns across eight high schools and offers selective magnet programs, including the Medical Sciences center at Freehold High School and the Global Studies center at Freehold Township High School. Confirm the exact zone for any address before you buy.

Is Freehold, NJ a good place to live?

Many buyers think so. Freehold pairs a historic, walkable downtown and county-seat amenities with suburban subdivisions, the Freehold Raceway Mall, CentraState Medical Center, and central access to Route 9, Route 33, and the Jersey Shore beaches about 25 minutes east. It offers a wide price range, a diverse community, and a central Monmouth location between New York and Philadelphia.

What kinds of homes are for sale in Freehold?

Inventory ranges from Victorian-era homes, capes, and downtown condos in the Borough to single-family colonials, ranches, townhomes, and new-construction subdivisions in the Township. You will also find 55-plus and active-adult options and the occasional estate property. Browse the price-range pages on this site or call 888-327-6555 for current Freehold listings.

How much are property taxes in Freehold, NJ?

Property taxes differ between Freehold Borough and Freehold Township because each has its own municipal and school levies, and the regional high school district adds a shared component. School taxes are usually the largest piece. Always review the current rate and assessment for a specific home; the NJ Division of Taxation resource on this page covers rates, deductions, and the appeal process.

Are there new-construction homes in Freehold Township?

Yes. Freehold Township has seen townhome and single-family development over the years, and newer subdivisions appear periodically along the Route 9 and Route 33 corridors. Inventory is limited and moves quickly, so call 888-327-6555 or register for alerts to be notified when new-construction listings come on the market.

What is there to do in Freehold?

Downtown Freehold Borough offers restaurants, shops, and nightlife along Main Street, plus the historic Monmouth County Courthouse and the Freehold Raceway, the oldest harness track in the country. The Township is home to the Freehold Raceway Mall, iPlay America, and Turkey Swamp Park, and the Jersey Shore beaches are about a 25-minute drive east.

Is Freehold close to the Jersey Shore?

Yes. Freehold sits about 16 miles west of Asbury Park, roughly a 25-minute drive to shore beaches in Asbury Park, Bradley Beach, Belmar, and Ocean Grove. That central location is a big part of the appeal: downtown and suburban living inland, with the coast, Route 9 retail, and major highways all within easy reach.

What hospitals and healthcare are near Freehold?

CentraState Medical Center, part of Atlantic Health System, is located in Freehold Township and serves western Monmouth and the surrounding region. Additional Monmouth County hospitals, including Jersey Shore University Medical Center in Neptune and Riverview Medical Center in Red Bank, are a short drive away.

Are there 55-plus or active-adult communities in Freehold?

Yes. Freehold Township and the surrounding western-Monmouth towns include age-restricted and active-adult communities with single-level living and low-maintenance grounds. See the Monmouth County 55-plus homes page or call 888-327-6555 for what is currently available in and around Freehold.
