LBI Real Estate Market Overview and Haven Beach NJ Real Estate Sales
The Long Beach Island (LBI) real estate market in 2024 continued to operate in a highly supply‑constrained environment, driven by years of strong demand and limited turnover in premium neighborhoods. Buyers seeking ocean‑block, oceanside, or move‑in‑ready homes faced tight competition, with many properties attracting interest immediately upon hitting the market. As the island’s inventory remained historically low, high‑quality coastal homes preserved and even expanded their value.
Within this environment, Haven Beach real estate distinguished itself as a top‑tier destination on LBI. Known for its wide beaches, quiet residential feel, and proximity to both local amenities and the main causeway, the neighborhood combines convenience with luxury appeal. In 2024, that reputation translated directly into pricing strength, elevated per‑foot values, and consistent demand at the upper end of the market.

The most defining characteristic of the 2024 Haven Beach market was the strong clustering of sales in the $2M–$3M range, signaling a shift upward in the neighborhood’s pricing baseline. Homes that might have traded in the high $1M tier just a few years ago consistently pushed into the low‑ and mid‑$2M tier, reflecting rising construction costs, limited availability, and the premium buyers place on the Haven Beach lifestyle.
The persistence of four‑figure price‑per‑square‑foot values is perhaps the clearest indicator of market strength. Averaging above $1,000/SqFt—and with many newer builds exceeding that figure—Haven Beach demonstrated pricing typically seen in some of the most desirable pockets of Long Beach Island. These numbers underscore the demand for newer construction, well‑designed interiors, and properties with outdoor entertainment spaces such as pools, roof decks, and wide porches.
Notably, the upper tier remained active, with sales ranging from the mid‑$3M mark to an impressive high of $6.8M. This top end of the market reflects the ongoing appeal of luxury coastal homes with ocean views, oversized lots, or high‑end design and architecture. Even though only 20% of sales exceeded $3M, they exerted significant upward influence on average values and confirmed the enduring desirability of Haven Beach as a premium enclave on the island.
Despite the relatively modest number of transactions, each sale demonstrated high value retention, suggesting that buyers continue to view Haven Beach as a long‑term, stable investment. Limited turnover also contributed to pricing strength; when fewer homes come to market, those that do often attract multiple interested parties.
