Manhattan’s luxury rental market is having a moment, and for owners, the opportunity may be bigger than they realize.

With more would-be buyers prioritizing flexibility, demand for exceptional rental residences remains strong while the supply of truly high-quality inventory remains limited. In Manhattan’s most coveted buildings, prime three-bedroom residences can now command $25,000 to $75,000+ per month, depending on the neighborhood, building and property.

At the same time, New York City’s new non-primary residence surcharge has added another consideration for owners of second homes and pied-à-terres. For some, renting may offer both compelling income potential and an important tax consideration.

We took a closer look at what prime three-bedroom condominiums are commanding today across the Upper East Side, Upper West Side, Midtown & Central Park South, Tribeca and the West Village.

Swipe through for the numbers.

Great to be back on Newsmax’s American Agenda discussing the current state of the U.S. housing market and what rising bond yields and mortgage rates approaching 7% mean for buyers and sellers.

Despite the challenging headlines, we remain bullish on the long-term outlook for housing. Buyers are gradually adjusting to rates remaining above 6%, pent-up demand continues to build and major investors are positioning themselves for the market’s long-term strength.

No one rings a bell when a market reaches the bottom, but we believe we are much closer to the beginning of a recovery than the beginning of a downturn.

Thank you to the American Agenda team for having us back and giving us the opportunity to share our perspective.

August may be one of Manhattan’s quietest months, but luxury buyers remained active.

48 contracts asking $5M+ were signed during the month, a decline from July as summer travel and vacations naturally slowed the pace of activity. Yet August still finished above its 10-year historical average, an encouraging sign of the depth of demand at the upper end of the market.

Just as notable, both average asking price and price per square foot increased, signaling continued activity at higher price points even as overall volume moderated.

As Manhattan transitions into the traditionally busier fall season, the bigger question may not be demand, but inventory. Quality supply remains limited across much of the luxury market, creating an increasingly important dynamic for both sides of the transaction.

For sellers, the fall market could present a compelling window to introduce well-positioned properties. For buyers, it reinforces the need to move decisively when exceptional opportunities become available.

Thrilled to support our dear friend Brad Inman and the extraordinary group of experts and changemakers he has assembled for the Livelong Women’s Health Summit in New York City this September.

Brad has always had a remarkable ability to bring great minds together around important conversations, and Livelong is no exception. More than 100 leading voices across medicine, science, wellness and innovation will come together for two days dedicated to one of the most important conversations of all: how women can live longer, healthier and stronger lives.

From Jane Fonda and Bobbi Brown to some of the country’s most respected physicians, researchers and thought leaders, it is an exceptional lineup and a testament to Brad’s vision for this event.

Congratulations, Brad — we can’t wait to see it all come together in NYC!

Another record for Manhattan rents. And this one tells a bigger story.

With the median rent now reaching $6,600, New York’s rental market continues to demonstrate what happens when extraordinary demand meets a chronic shortage of housing.

As we discussed on Schwab Network , the long-term solution isn’t complicated: New York needs more housing. Until meaningful new supply comes online, competition for quality apartments will remain intense and affordability will continue to be challenged.

Always a pleasure joining Schwab Network to discuss what the latest numbers are telling us about the New York City market.

Grey Oaks continues to prove that in Naples, the right community can be just as important as the home itself.

One of the city’s most established private golf communities, Grey Oaks offers a lifestyle that increasingly resonates with today’s luxury buyer: championship golf, exceptional club amenities, beautiful residences and a strong sense of community, all just minutes from downtown Naples.

That demand is showing up in the numbers. The median sale price reached $4.3M, up 1.7% year over year, while 37 sales represented a 23% increase in activity. Average closed price per square foot climbed 4.8% to $1,133.

As luxury buyers place greater value on lifestyle, convenience and access, membership-driven golf communities are becoming an increasingly important part of the Naples market. Grey Oaks delivers all three, with the added benefit of scarcity that comes from owning within one of the area’s most sought-after clubs.

Always a pleasure joining Cheryl Casone & Charles Payne on Fox Business to talk about what’s happening in the housing market.

New-home sales are feeling the pressure as high mortgage rates, elevated prices and a persistent shortage of affordable starter homes continue to challenge buyers across the country.

We broke down the latest numbers, what they tell us about demand, and why affordability remains one of the biggest issues facing today’s housing market.

Thank you Cheryl, Charles and the entire Making Money team for having us!

Money opens a lot of doors. Just not all of them.

In New York real estate, money can buy extraordinary things. But it can’t create a one-of-a-kind view, recreate a century of history, or guarantee access to the right opportunity.

In a market where the truly exceptional is inherently scarce, that’s what makes it valuable.
