Lauren Rosenthal at The Corcoran Group

Lauren Rosenthal at The Corcoran Group Lauren is a NYC real estate agent who LOVES finding the right home for you and making sure you that you actually get the one you want!

Lauren has been obsessed with real estate ever since she sold her first apartment in 2000: "the return on the initial investment was so good that I could not stop thinking about it. The strength of Manhattan real estate investments is incredible." It is this enthusiasm as well as her extreme honesty, extensive patience, and exceptional service that make Lauren Rosenthal so valuable to her clients.

Whether you are seeking an apartment uptown or down, of luxurious or moderate proportions, she will guide you wisely and advise you practically of your options so you can make the best decisions. A native New Yorker, Lauren has herself lived on the Upper East Side and the Upper West Side as well as in the Village, adding to her wealth of knowledge of Manhattan’s unique neighborhoods. Growing up on the Upper East Side, she attended the Riverdale Country Day school. After graduating from the University of Chicago, Lauren returned and now resides on the Upper West Side with her family. She has been very active in her children’s public school community as a PTA president and as a member of the local Community Education Council. She is a great asset to both soon-to-be and growing families as she is to individuals in all stages of life who seek the right home for their lifestyle. Thanks to her dedication, and to what she calls her “excruciatingly direct” approach to helping them meet their needs, Lauren hears time and again how comfortable and confident she makes her clients feel. As a result, they stay loyal to her as their real estate requirements change, and wholeheartedly recommend her to others. Lauren holds a Bachelors degree from the University of Chicago. Prior to entering real estate, she was accepted to law school but redirected her interest to real estate. Lauren has also been involved in local politics via her former role as co-president of the PTA, and active participation in the Community Education Council. In her free time you will find Lauren in Central Park, or at the theater, or at home reading a great novel.

I took wonderful buyers out yesterday to see 8 beautiful two bedroom and three bedroom apartments, including two condo wrecks. Those two listings are perfect for people who love to renovate, pretty daunting for the rest of us. In general, prices seem lower than they were two months ago and more negotiable. Listing agents were almost too eager.
Weekly real estate update:
supply low
credit spreads still low but slightest uptick
rate cut predicted for September according to Fed Fund Futures
current 30 yr rate 6.77
Interesting new website: Truflation.com is tracking inflation with their own formula.

everyone asks about the current state of NYC real estate so here it is: summer puts buyers in the driver's seat, Listings that have been on the market over 120 days sell for a 9% discount on average. Demand drops in the summer because people go on vacation so it is a great time to be a buyer.

📍 NYC Real Estate Tip of the Day
Buying or selling in NYC? Don’t just hire any attorney.
You need one who lives and breathes NYC residential real estate—every single day. Here’s why it matters (a lot):
🚫 Attorneys who don’t specialize in NYC resi deals often become what we call: Deal Killers.

Why?
They don’t understand co-ops or condops
They don’t know the right questions to ask building management
They’re often slow, combative, or unfamiliar with the rhythm of a NYC deal
And they don’t follow the golden rule:
⏳ Time kills deals

If you're in the process and need a great attorney, I’ve got a list of six I trust completely (and no, I don’t get a referral fee—just want your deal to close).

DM me and I’ll send the list. 💬
Let’s keep your deal moving.

A quote from the last few months: "selling suburban and buying urban" to describe what is happening in real estate in the US. For whatever reason, prices are up in the Northeast and down everywhere else. Perhaps drought and fires in the west and heat and hurricanes in the south may be a part of it. Or its the return to the urban areas and the diminishing of virtual worK. Thoughts?

this sponsor apartment just came on the market and it is lovely, a great deal and no painful co-op board to deal with! Please note, the photos have been virtually staged and they added in treetops in the windows which is not okay in my book. But it is a great gut renovated apartment in a great building on a beautiful street in the heart of Park Slope. Really fantastic work, I know the contractor:

225 LINCOLN PLACE is a sale unit in Park Slope, Brooklyn priced at $675,000.

AMAZED that my buyers' offer for a Park Slope 3 bedroom, 1.5 bathroom completely gut renovated apartment in a elevator building was accepted. Amazed because their offer was for just barely under a million!!! They were lucky lucky lucky and I am just so thrilled for them. It is an amazing time to buy....

I'm pondering this: "NYC real estate prices dropped in only two of the last five recessions."
And this little nugget: rising interest rates mean fewer real estate purchases. which generally leads to rising rental prices. The fed uses rental prices to calculate inflation.
