jacobwoodre Manhattan Luxury Market Update | Week of March 23rd The Manhattan luxury market picked slightly with 33 contracts signed above $4 million... 4 more than the previous week. Condos outsold co-ops, 23-5, with 5 townhouse in the mix.

jacobwoodre NEW LISTING OF THE WEEK: 895 West End Ave 1B Bloomingdale / Upper West Side Classic-7 Ask: $2.895M In looking over new listings for UWS 3 & 4 bed buyers, this one caught my eye. Parlor level homes in historic buildings such as 895 WEA can be wonderful opportunities. High ceilings, excellent light elevated about seven feet up from street level (almost a full floor), lower maintenance than higher floors, and potentially great value as less savvy buyers misunderstand the numbering, thinking the home is on street-level. This particular home offers a gorgeous renovation, preserving the original detail, and including an HVAC which is a real premium in a pre-war building whose infrastructure doesn't lend itself to central air installation. The butler's pantry and broken up flow between the living and dining rooms can be awkward in classic-7s that keep their original layout, although this renovation and staging manages it well. The UWS market has picked up over the past month and I don't expect this one to be around for very long. . . . .

jacobwoodre What 'chall know about @rksbandofficial !? I didn't know anything about them until seeing them at @brooklynparamount last night and they are fantastic. They've been around a little over 10 years, out of Boone, NC of all places. #rainbowkittensurprise
jacobwoodre The Q4 Manhattan & Brooklyn Market Report is Out! While Manhattan new dev rebounded in Q3 with sales activity up 20% year-over, the Manhattan coop market finally saw life as well in Q4. Activity was up 9%, prices up 6%, and supply up 5%... stronger on all fronts. Brooklyn supply is so tight pricing has flattened out. There are plenty of buyers willing to pay more for Brooklyn... if only there were more homes for them to buy!
