LUXURY MARKET REPORT 2020
Report on Contracts Signed
Manhattan Residential Properties $4 Million and Above
June 10-16, 2019

22 Contracts Signed

Twenty-two contracts were signed last week at $4 million and above, the 8th straight week of 20+ sales. Condos outsold co-ops, 16-2, and there were 4 townhouses in the mix. Properties on average were reduced by 15% before a buyer was found, and spent an average of 491 days on the market.

Last week’s figures are a snapshot of a luxury market that continues to be over-priced--and that attracts a smaller pool of buyers. The impact of declining interest rates is yet to be seen in the Manhattan luxury market.
