Report on Contracts Signed
NYC Residential
Properties
$4 Million and Above
19 Contracts Signed
Only 19 contracts were signed last week at $4 million and above. I say ONLY because the 2nd week of December in 2014 saw 30 contracts signed. So far, the 2-week December total is 43 as opposed to 61 last year. Some reasons: low inventory coupled with overpricing; a tepid year on Wall Street; a strong dollar that dissuades foreign buyers, and economic turmoil in China.
The No.1 contract was Unit 2 at 224 Mulberry Street, asking $12 million, reduced from $13.25 million when it started on the market in September 2014. This new duplex condo
has 4,078 square feet including 3 bedrooms, 3.5 bathrooms, and a 990-square-foot
terrace off the den and eat-in kitchen. It also has 2 parking spots. The apartment is in a 6-unit condo that offers high-end finishes, a concierge/doorman, a fitness center, and a roof terrace.
The No. 2 contract was 154 East 66th Street, a brownstone asking $10.9 million, reduced from $12.3 million when it went on the market in January. This 5-story building is 18.75-feet wide with 5,100 square feet including 5 bedrooms, a library, 6.5 baths, and 5 fireplaces. It does not have an elevator, but it’s one of a dozen houses on 66th and 65th streets that share a beautiful common garden called Jones Wood.
