To own the typical homeTo own. The typical home’s value, houses and condos (Zillow Home Value Index, Sep 2026), less a 20% down payment, borrowed over 30 years at 7.32% — the national benchmark for a 30-year fixed loan (Freddie Mac’s weekly survey, via FRED, Oct 22, 2026), not a quote for any borrower. A month adds property tax, homeowners insurance, any mortgage insurance, utilities and upkeep, each with where it comes from; HOA fees and flood insurance only if you enter them. The tax bill is the area’s median from New Jersey’s assessment records unless you enter a bill — never worked out from the price.

To rent the typical homeTo rent. Zillow Observed Rent Index for this place (Sep 2026): the typical rent asked for homes listed for rent, across every kind of rental home — mostly apartments — smoothed and seasonally adjusted. It is what a new tenant is asked, not what tenants already in place pay, and it does not include utilities.

Owning costs $1,457 more a month than renting; $258 of the owning payment goes into the home.

Not included: the owning estimate leaves out HOAHOA. A homeowners or condominium association, which charges owners a monthly fee for shared upkeep and amenities. It is set by each building or community, so no published figure covers it. or condo fees, flood insurance and what the down payment could earn.

Comparing the two: A house usually rents for more than this: Zillow’s rent covers every kind of rental home, mostly apartments, while its home value covers single-family houses only. Owning includes utilities; a quoted rent usually does not.

Five years back, not a forecast: Over the last five years the typical home here gained about $1,830 a month in value (Sep 2021 to Sep 2026) — what happened, not a promise. Buyers then borrowed at 2.90% (Sep 2021), against 7.32% (Oct 22, 2026).

The underlying figures have changed since this was written. Treat it as out of date until it is regenerated.

Burlington County's home sales are brisk: 28.7 homes sold a year per 1,000 homes, among the highest of the 21 counties. Its sale prices against household income, 3.10 times give or take 0.05 times, fall among the lowest values, so for someone renting or buying here, homes change hands often at prices that are low compared with what households earn. This rests on homes that sold, mostly one- to four-family homes, so it does not show what every home in the county is worth.
