About the Fort Lee Real Estate Market
Fort Lee is one of Bergen County's most in-demand markets, driven by NYC commuters and a strong international buyer base. The town's high-rise condo towers along Bluff Road, Hudson Terrace, and Center Avenue dominate inventory — units routinely list from the mid-$400Ks for one-bedrooms up to $2M+ for waterfront penthouses. Single-family homes on the western side of town start around $800K and climb past $2M for renovated properties near Fort Lee Historic Park. The market here moves fast: well-priced condos with skyline views typically receive offers within 14-30 days. Buyers should be pre-approved before touring, and sellers should price strategically — overpriced units sit while comparable lower-priced units close quickly. Property taxes are high (typical for Bergen) but offset by direct NYC bus and ferry access from the local park-and-ride.
