Thu, 26 Mar 2026 16:00:45 +0000

Thinking about moving to Lawrence Township, NJ (Lawrenceville)? This is what most buyers miss.

In this video, we break down the top 10 things you need to know before moving to Lawrence, including location, commuting, home prices, schools, and why more buyers are choosing it over Princeton.

Why Buyers Are Moving to Hopewell NJ (10 Things to Know)

Thu, 19 Mar 2026 16:00:29 +0000

Thinking about moving to Hopewell NJ? Wondering if it’s a good alternative to Princeton or one of the best towns in Mercer County to buy a home? In this video, I break down the top 10 things buyers need to know before moving to Hopewell, New Jersey.

A lot of buyers don’t realize that “Hopewell” isn’t just one place—it includes Hopewell Township, Hopewell Borough, and Pennington, each with a completely different lifestyle, housing options, and price points. If you’re relocating to Central New Jersey or getting priced out of Princeton, this is one of the most important areas to understand before you buy.

I also walk through:

- What kind of homes you can actually get in Hopewell (and how it compares to Princeton)

- Why buyers are moving here for more space and better value

- The reality of commuting to NYC and Philadelphia

- How the Hopewell Valley Regional School District compares to nearby towns

- The lifestyle tradeoffs (privacy vs convenience)

- Who Hopewell is actually a good fit for—and who it’s not

If you're trying to figure out whether Hopewell fits your lifestyle, commute, and budget, this will give you a clear answer before you make a move.

Thinking about moving to Montgomery Township, NJ? Watch this first.

In this episode of The Wilton Report, we break down 10 things buyers don’t fully understand until after they’ve moved — including the Princeton zip code effect, school district demand, neighborhood differences, and the reality of property taxes.

Here’s what you need to know:

📍 Princeton Zip Code Effect – How a Princeton mailing address impacts Montgomery pricing.

🎓 Top-Rated Schools – 2 elementary, 2 middle, 1 high school (~4,400–4,600 students, 11:1 ratio).

💰 Property Taxes Explained – Around $20K/year? ~65% schools, ~15% town, ~18% county, ~2% open space/fire.

🏘 “Jekyll & Hyde” Geography – Neighborhood location inside the township matters more than most buyers expect.

If you're relocating to Montgomery or anywhere in Central New Jersey, make sure the town fits your lifestyle, budget, and long-term goals — not just the brochure.

Fri, 10 Feb 2023 13:00:00 +0000

Welcome back to THE WILTON REPORT and it is time to chat Princeton real estate. It's been an amazing couple of weeks in the market. It feels like every day there is new news good, bad and indifferent. Well, not really different, just good or bad. And we're going to just kind of break it down and figure out what the deal is. Especially when it comes to Princeton real estate. We're going to talk a couple other towns too, but I will start by saying this. There has never been a better time to be a seller than right now. Especially in Princeton.

Thanks everybody!

Episode 25 - Princeton Market Update

Mon, 21 Nov 2022 12:00:00 +0000

Welcome back to THE WILTON REPORT, which is everything Princeton real estate. I apologize for the small hiatus. I was sick as a dog for a few weeks but back at it and the market is still really fascinating. National news, I'll just kind of talk you through the national news market slowdown. I've heard as much as a 20% correction, nationally meaning home sales are down 20% nationally, which if Princeton is not down 20% And perhaps New Jersey is not down 20% or other parts of the country are down more so, nationally, you are definitely feeling the effect of the rising interest rates. I think the rather elongated by seller's market, we were in maybe the unnatural seller's market that we were in. So different parts of the country are definitely feeling different things and next week, we will kind of dig into a couple of different towns around Princeton because I think as the market continues to shift, it's going to be important that you compare and contrast. What's happening in Cranberry, Robbinsville, West Windsor with Princeton because Princeton, as if you've listened to this podcast before is a very unique environment for real estate. So that being said, we are going to kind of look at the year over year through October numbers.

Episode 24 - Princeton Market Update

Mon, 17 Oct 2022 14:00:00 +0000

Good morning everybody and welcome back to THE WILTON REPORT! What a time to be in real estate, Holy moly!!! Every day you wake up, interest rates are going up, housing markets crashing, equity markets don't know what to do... People are bracing for recession. So we're going to do kind of a deep dive and get pretty granular into what's happening in the Princeton market. Because, as I've said if not once a million times, real estate is local! What's happening in Texas doesn't really affect what's happening in Princeton. So we're going to kind of go into what's happening in Princeton in a high level of detail.

Episode 23 - Fall Market Rental Market Review/Preview

Fri, 23 Sep 2022 16:00:00 +0000

Welcome back to the Wilton Report! Today we're going to talk about the rental market in general and then we're gonna go into some micro level detail in Princeton. We give you a little bit of a forecast as to what I think's going to happen. For the share data from what a lot of other experts, much more expertise perhaps than I do on the national scene I think is going to happen.

Episode 22 - Fall Market Review/Preview

Mon, 19 Sep 2022 13:00:00 +0000

Welcome back to THE WILTON REPORT! We had a few weeks hiatus with the end of the summer and the beginning of the school year, I hope it was an awesome end of the summer for everybody and the beginning of the school year, for those of you who are sending your kids to school, I am too. There's so much happening in the real estate market and there's so much misinformation in the real estate market happening. So we're gonna just really kind of get a little bit micro with the numbers today and spend some time on it and talk about what it means to you as the consumer whether you're buying or selling.

Episode 21 - Things Not To Do To Keep a Deal Together

Mon, 29 Aug 2022 13:00:00 +0000

Good morning everybody and welcome back to THE WILTON REPORT and incredibly this is our 21st episode already. Today it's an interesting time in the market. National News is not good. The R word - recession is being bandied about, housing sales are down. There's a lot of cross currents in the market and so what does that mean locally? So, I'm going to talk about things not to do in order to keep a deal together, at least as it relates to Princeton. Because again, Princeton is a micro market where it's a very low supply, very high demand environment. So you know, we're going to kind of talk about what the national trends and the impact that they're having on the psychology of the consumer in the Princeton real estate market.

Episode 20 - I Don't Get It.

Mon, 22 Aug 2022 12:00:00 +0000

Welcome back to THE WILTON REPORT! Today we're going to talk about the principal real estate market as we do most weeks. I'm going to not do as much data as we normally do. We're going to kind of talk about the emotional why of people buy real estate, and you know what to expect in the fall market. Enjoy!

Episode 19 - Buyer's or Seller's Market?

Mon, 15 Aug 2022 11:00:00 +0000

Welcome back to the Wilton Report! Today we're going to talk specifically about Princeton New Jersey real estate.The topic today is "Are we in a buyer's market or we in a seller's market... or what the heck is going on in the market, because real estate such an amazingly brisk topic. It's always in the media - good, bad, indifferent, up, down. It's like the commodities market. Everyone has lived in a home, whether they rent it or they own it, or they're aspiring to own it. So it's a very emotional personal topic. Today we'll zoom into detail of what's happening in the Princeton market. So if you're selling, you'd have some insight. If you're buying I'd say this is probably geared towards you, more perhaps, than a seller, but we're going to really get into some micro level detail on the market.

Episode 18 - Does Your Business Belong to You... or Your Broker?

Mon, 25 Jul 2022 13:00:00 +0000

Instead of doing a market analysis, we're going to do a little bit of brokerage talk. So this particular broadcast is really designed if you're an active agent in the industry. I think you'll find it interesting and I guess really the theme is, does your business belong to you? Does it belong to your broker? And that's it? That's a big question in today's environment, not so much with the market shifting. It's just you know, the agent does all the work and you know, sometimes they don't get the due credit that they deserve and or the financial remuneration that they deserve. And we're going to do a really deep deep dive into that today.

Episode 17 - Princeton Rental Market 6 Month Review

Mon, 18 Jul 2022 11:00:00 +0000

Hi everybody and welcome back to the Wilton report! Today, not surprisingly, we're going to talk about Princeton Real Estate. Today, we're going to talk about the rental market.

It's not that much different here than it is anywhere else in the country. Low supply, high demand prices are definitely escalating.

Sun, 19 Jun 2022 12:00:00 +0000

I don't know if anyone's heard but interest rates are slightly climbing and we're going to talk about that and then we're going to talk about the fact that the market doesn't care. So we're gonna go with this some detail as to what's happening in the market in terms of interest rates and inventory, which is a big one and then we're going to just talk about really simple strategies to break down the market. To kind of eliminate the noise that you're hearing to help you think clearly if you're buying or selling real estate, or the residential side of the commercial. So the theme of today's world report is the market doesn't care.

Fri, 20 May 2022 11:00:00 +0000

Welcome to episode 11 of THE WILTON REPORT! We're going to kind of do a quick wrap as to what the heck is happening in the market. We'll look at some end of April data. We're going to kind of basically focus on Princeton, we're going to start broadening out our discussion to other towns. They do have one interesting case to talk about another town and but what's happened in the market My God, if I had $1, for every time I was asked that question, I wouldn't have to broadcast this to you. I'd be done I'd be retired. So that being said, let's attempt to answer the question as to what's happening. This is not a future looking conversation today.

It's not exciting, but it is important in a seller's market, which we're in. There's a lot of talk about waiving home inspection, should I waive home inspection, what is a home inspection? So we're just going to kind of start with the basics of what is it and talk about strategies to deal with it in a market where I will tell you last night I think we have 13 offers on the listing here in Princeton.

Fri, 06 May 2022 11:00:00 +0000

Welcome to episode 9 of THE WILTON REPORT!

Welcome to episode 8 of THE WILTON REPORT! I wanted to take a minute today to explain who we are and what we do. And a little bit about the background of the founders. We'll talk more about it. People seem to have a lot of questions and interest as to how we get started. So we'll kind of go through that lightly today. And you know, just take a minute to slow it down, talk less about the market, and more about who we are and how we came to be.

Episode 5 - I Want to Sell My Home...Now What?

Fri, 08 Apr 2022 11:00:00 +0000

We often get sellers asking us why the listings we bring to market looks so good, why the photos look so good. Simple answer is preparation! An ounce of preparation is a pound of cure! Specifically if you're thinking of selling your home, this podcast is for you because sellers constantly underestimate the amount of work that it takes to putting their house in the market. And what they don't understand is the return on investment they're going to get when they do that kind of work.

Today, I really wanted to do a little bit more of a deep dive in pricing a couple of weeks ago, we talked about what was fomenting the demand here in Princeton, and today we're going to kind of do a quick recap of that. And then we're going to nerd out a little bit and really get a little bit deep into what's happening in the rental market in terms of pricing for a one bedroom, two bedroom, studios. We're going to see what Avalon is up to for their pricing. Please enjoy!
