Understanding new construction oceanblock home sales on Long Beach Island in 2025 is a key step for buyers and sellers in the LBI real estate market.

Oceanblock New Construction Homes in the LBI Real Estate Market Averages:

  • Average Sold Price: ~$3,272,688

  • Average Days on Market: ~93.6 days

  • Average List‑to‑Sale Ratio: ~95.84%

  • Number of New Construction Closings in Data: 8


The combination of higher price points and nearly 3‑month DOM reflects thorough buyer diligence at this level—finish quality, layout efficiency, pool placement, and elevation all get scrutinized. The ~95.8% ratio indicates some negotiation latitude for buyers, particularly on specs that fall short on outdoor flow or bedroom count. The location, while adding great value, is not enough to compensate for a home that lacks what discerning buyers are looking for. While 95.8% is still a very respectable list-to-sale price ratio, it falls short of the Long Beach Island average, which was nearly 98% of the listing price.


What Buyers are Looking for in an Oceanblock New Construction on Long Beach Island


  • True indoor‑outdoor living (large pocket sliders, covered porches, integrated kitchens).

  • Smart bedroom mixes (multiple suites, bunk room for cousins/friends).

  • Low‑maintenance, storm‑sensible materials with strong warranties.

  • Premium lot positions—closer paths to the ocean and lower traffic streets.

This New Construction Oceanblock Home Sales on Long Beach Island in 2025 sheds light on the current trends in the LBI real estate market. As a result, we can learn a great deal from this and develop real guidance for buyers and sellers in the LBI real estate market. Buyers in the Long Beach Island real estate market should understand the timing of these builds.

Tighten marketing with detailed materials lists, flood compliance docs, and nighttime exterior photos.
