Twenty-one contracts were signed last week at $4 million and above, 18 fewer than the previous week. Condos outsold co-ops, 15 to 2, and there were 4 townhouses in the mix.
Stat Geek Alert: Last week marked the lowest totals of both contracts signed and dollar volume since the 3rd week in January, when 14 contracts were signed. Nevertheless, 21 contracts is indicative of a stable market and certainly a respectable showing for the middle of summer when so many of the luxury buyers are away.
