The market here
River Vale sits in Pascack Valley, with roughly 3,521 households. Homes there sold for an average of $1.14M across 72 closed sales over the period covered below, which places it toward the upper end of the county. An average is pulled by the extremes, so treat it as a bearing rather than a price. In a borough this size the street matters more than the town-wide figure.
