Manhattan just hit 243 contracts—the biggest week of 2026. 📈

But one building captured 6 of the top 10 deals. And 432 Park just sold for $59.5M, the year’s highest.

Meanwhile, Brooklyn dropped 29% year-over-year. The only thing growing? Single-family homes (+42%) and Bed-Stuy (+58%).

The luxury market is concentrating. Brooklyn buyers want land. And the gap between winners and losers keeps widening.

New development just posted its first gain in 9 weeks. 📈. But here’s the real story: Brooklyn studios hit zero. Not low—zero. Manhattan luxury above $5M surged 53%. Brooklyn luxury above $3M jumped 167%.

Meanwhile, entry-level collapsed across both boroughs.
The market isn’t slowing. It’s splitting in two.

NYC just posted its first year-over-year gain of 2026. 📈

But the real story? Where the money moved.

Manhattan’s $5M+ segment surged 64% while the entry-level contracted. Brooklyn townhouses doubled. Co-ops crushed condos. The Dakota signed its biggest deal in six months.

The market isn’t slowing—it’s sorting.

First satisfull week of 2026: the numbers are in 📊

Manhattan: 180 contracts signed
↑ 34% from last week
↓ 17% from last year

The five-week winning streak? Over.

But here’s what caught my eye—Brooklyn’s $3M+ market was the ONLY price tier across both boroughs to post positive annual growth.

Luxury holding strong where you’d least expect it.

From hero to zero in 30 days 📉

While luxury froze:
✦ Co-ops surged +12%
✦ Brooklyn townhouses exploded +50%

The NYC market just told us everything we need to know about last week 👇

While headlines scream “market slowdown,” the data reveals a different story:

📊 Luxury contracts: +24% (one week)
