Manhattan’s Market in a Tax‑Aware Spring

  Tight Supply, Flat Prices, and Policy Risks Shaping 2026 Decisions Manhattan is moving into spring with tight inventory. Steady but selective demand, and a price trend that looks more like a plateau than a surge. Supply is climbing week by week, yet it still sits well below last year's level.  The 30‑day contracts grind higher into what is usually the busiest stretch of the year. Continue Reading

Manhattan’s Spring Market: Sought-After Legacy Properties in a Volatile Week

  Sought-after legacy properties in a volatile week Manhattan’s market is trading through the headlines. This week’s data show a city where volume, pricing, and sentiment are rising together. The Iran war keeps credit markets and mortgage rates jittery rather than settled. At the high end, capital is looking past the noise and choosing assets with history, architecture, and long-term Continue Reading

Manhattan’s Spring Market in a World on Edge

A market waking up while the world shakes Manhattan’s housing tape looks almost deceptively calm against a noisy global backdrop. Supply is edging higher, contracts are climbing, and the spring market is starting to behave the way it usually does at this time of year.  This is all occurring even as the world absorbs a war in Iran, choppy equity indices, and bond markets that cannot quite Continue Reading

Weekly Market Snapshot: Manhattan Market Finds Its Stride

Spring Outlook The Manhattan market finished February on a stronger footing and is showing clear signs of a Spring Awakening. Buyers across price tiers showed more confidence.  This is especially evident in segments where lower jumbo rates help keep monthly costs within a set comfort band. Activity was strongest from $1M to $3M and in the $5M to $10M range. Many purchasers are trading up in Continue Reading

Manhattan Spring Build-Up Starts From a Lower Base

  Threshold of spring Closing out February and waking up to March 1, Manhattan feels like it is standing on the threshold of spring. The last flurries are fading, the air still carries winter’s edge, and the city seems to wake a little earlier each morning. The market mirrors that mood, no longer in deep winter yet not fully in spring. Buyers and sellers are stretching, testing their Continue Reading

Weekly Market Snapshot: Snow, Scarcity and a New‑Development Power Play

  As March arrives and warmer weather melts the last of the snow, Manhattan's market starts to move out of its winter holding pattern. At the same time, buyers and sellers weigh a more complicated backdrop, from talk of higher city property taxes to questions about the job market and recent geopolitical tension with Iran that could influence confidence and timing.    New Continue Reading

Manhattan Market In Holding Pattern

  A Winter‑Bound Start To The Spring Market This Manhattan weekly market update examines a spring season trying to start amid six consecutive snowy weekends. Buyers talk about “starting the search next weekend.” That next weekend keeps slipping as open houses feel less practical and neighborhood tours turn into slush walks, not discovery walks. Sellers feel the same constraint and delay Continue Reading

Weekly Market Snapshot: Contracts in the Clouds: Manhattan New Development Finds Its Next Gear

Manhattan’s new development market is not tiptoeing into spring; it is sprinting. The Manhattan luxury market just delivered another standout week.  Contract activity outpaced recent benchmarks. The ultra-luxury tier rose again, reminding everyone who is setting the tone for 2026. As Kael Goodman of Marketproof notes, it was a “standout week” for new developments.  Contracts surged, Continue Reading
