Manhattan Monthly Market Report - November 2011

Manhattan Monthly Market Report - November 2011

Marketwide Summary

November’s average price per square foot increased from last month and last year
. Compared to November 2010, condo average price per square foot increased 9% and co-ops increased 4%.

There was a significant increase in the number of contracts signed over $2,000 per square foot this month, which drove average price per square foot up.

Market-wide median price increased from October and last November as there was a shift in contract activity to higher price ranges. Contract activity over $1MM represented 46% of total sales this month, while October sales over $1MM accounted for 33% of all contracts signed

Interest rates are still at all time lows and the Manhattan rental vacancy rate remains tight while average monthly rents continue to rise. This makes buying very appealing right now. 
 
As always, I will continue to follow closely sales activity and trends in Manhattan residential real estate and would welcome the oportunity to answer any questions about this report, the market in general or any questions about buying or selling real estate in Manhattan.
 
I’m very happy to talk to people at any stage of the Real Estate process and can discuss the opportunities in each neighborhood, price point and room count.
