Redlining in Princeton?

Welcome back to another episode of The Wilton Report, Princeton’s only dedicated real estate podcast and videocast! In today's episode, we dive deep into a controversial topic affecting the housing market in Princeton, New Jersey—redlining and how it might be happening through historic preservation policies.

In this episode, Josh Wilton, co-owner and broker of Queenston Realty, breaks down:

The challenges facing first-time homebuyers in a high-demand, low-inventory market.

Insights into Princeton's real estate trends and how historic overlays are impacting the ability to build and buy homes.

A case study on a specific property (114-118 Birch Street) and why it languished on the market for over 150 days, despite being a double lot in a desirable neighborhood.

How restrictions in neighborhoods like John Witherspoon are limiting housing options for both sellers and buyers.

A closer look at the issues surrounding housing density and why we need more affordable housing options that people can actually buy.

Josh also shares updates on upcoming events, including a First-Time Homebuyer Seminar and talks about the new offerings from their sister company, Princeton Property Management Services, now managing local Airbnbs!
