North Beach LBI Real Estate Market Report and LBI NJ Real Estate Market Sales — 2019
LBI Real Estate Market Overview
The Long Beach Island real estate market in 2019 laid the groundwork for the explosive growth that would take shape over the next several years. North Beach real estate, known for its quiet atmosphere, large parcels, and strong architectural continuity, remained one of the most desirable enclaves within Long Beach Township. Buyer activity reflected a mix of primary homeowners, second‑home purchasers, and long‑term investors positioning early ahead of what would become a historic run-up in coastal property values. With stable pricing and consistent demand, 2019 serves as a benchmark year for understanding how dramatically the market evolved thereafter.
