Hamilton Township has gone along with the trend in Mercer County with fewer homes listed for sale compared to the same quarter a year ago.

The number of new listings for the quarter was 370 residences compared to 419 in 2011. The comparison of quarters for the county showed 1,572 homes newly on the market this year in contrast to 1,726 houses in 2011.
We will continue to keep an eye on this for you.
