Pitman is a small Gloucester County borough with older homes and a market that moves quickly. I'm Jerry Mac with Keller Williams Realty, and I've helped South Jersey buyers and sellers for 23 years. Here is what living in Pitman looks like, using closed-sale numbers from Bright MLS.
Figures below are dated and come from Bright MLS and public sources. Prices move month to month, so ask me for a current look before you make a decision.
What do homes cost in Pitman?
| Measure | Figure | Source |
|---|---|---|
| Closed residential sales | 101 | Bright MLS, 11/2025 to 11/2026 |
| Median closed price | $357,000 | Bright MLS, 11/2025 to 11/2026 |
| Average closed price | About $373,444 | Bright MLS, 11/2025 to 11/2026 |
| Closed price range | $130,000 to $689,900 | Bright MLS, 11/2025 to 11/2026 |
| Median list price | $360,000 | Bright MLS, 11/2025 to 11/2026 |
| Median days on market | 14 days (average 38) | Bright MLS, 11/2025 to 11/2026 |
| Median sale-to-list ratio | About 101% | Bright MLS, 11/2025 to 11/2026 |
About 54 percent of Pitman homes (55 of 101) sold above list price, 23 percent (23) sold at list and 23 percent (23) sold under list. That is a seller-leaning pattern in this sample, so buyers should be ready to move quickly on a well-priced home. The typical home sold had about 1,400 square feet and was built around 1925, so expect older construction. Older homes can mean character, but also ask about the roof, heating, electrical and plumbing, and get a thorough inspection.
What are property taxes in Pitman?
For 2025, the NJ Division of Taxation lists Pitman Borough with a general tax rate of 3.596 and an effective tax rate of 2.817. The effective rate adjusts for how local assessments compare to market value. Your actual bill depends on the home's assessment, so check the specific address. I'm not an accountant, so talk to yours about how taxes fit your budget and your deductions. The state's Division of Taxation also lists relief programs such as ANCHOR.
Schools
School assignment can differ by address, and districts change programs from year to year. Confirm the school district and school for any specific home with the district before you buy.
Commute
Most Pitman residents drive. Rush hour is the variable, so test the drive to Philadelphia at the time you would actually travel.
Who Pitman fits
- Buyers who want a small borough and are comfortable with an older home.
- Buyers who want a price below much of Camden County.
- Buyers who can act fast, since many homes here sell quickly and above list.
