Where does Realmo's Harrison market data come from?
Realmo compiles Harrison, NJ figures from 6 recent recorded sales, 28 active sale listings, 10 active lease listings, 302 tracked off-market properties, the current Harrison zoning release. Sale and lease figures refresh monthly; vacancy annually. Last updated 30 September 2026.
Methodology & data sources
Asking prices and averages
Computed from 28 active for-sale and 10 active for-lease listings in Harrison, NJ. These are ASKING figures from live listings, not closed-transaction prices, and a segment carried by a handful of listings reads as indicative rather than an average.
Vacancy rates
Published per-sector market series, taken at the metro level where one exists and otherwise at the Census-region level — a chart reading "in <region> region" is a regional number, not this city's.
Zoning and land use
The current municipal zoning release: 851 zoned acres across 27 districts. Shares are of zoned land, so parcels the release leaves unclassified are excluded from the mix.
Refresh
The monthly aggregates close at the end of the previous month, so 30 September 2026 — not today — is the honest last update.
Known limitations
office vacancy is reported at Northeast region level, retail vacancy is reported at Northeast region level, industrial vacancy is reported at Northeast region level and asking prices run materially above recent closed pricing.
Coverage
Metrics below the 10-observation threshold fall back one geographic level. The geography used is named on each figure.
