A quick update from me on the New York market this summer.

July and August are usually quiet, but this year felt especially slow. I saw it firsthand: one of our listings had two written offers fall apart after contracts went out. We just priced it below recent comparable sales, and now the showing requests are pouring in.

The slides have my highlights. If you'd like my full August newsletter, send me a message and I'll share it.

If you're thinking about a move this fall, I'm always happy to talk it through.

My August newsletter is out!

This summer was a quiet one in New York real estate, and I share what I learned from one of our listings about what really gets buyers to act.

Send me a message if you'd like a copy. As always, feel free to reach out with any questions.

Something new I'm excited to share: 550 West 21st Street in West Chelsea.

It's a 23-story condo by Danish architect Thomas Juul-Hansen, right at West 21st Street and the Hudson River Greenway, in the middle of Chelsea's gallery district.

A few things I like about it:
• Only 83 homes
• A light brick facade with big windows, loggias and private terraces
• Hudson River Park and the High Line are just steps away
• It topped out in June and should be finished in mid-2027

Sales are expected to start later this year, and pricing hasn't been released yet. If you'd like a sneak peek before it launches, comment "PREVIEW" or send me a message and I'll keep you in the loop.

More buyers are out looking.⁠
⁠
That doesn't mean they're chasing.⁠
⁠
We recently sold a property that had struggled to sell for years. We priced it slightly below market value, expecting strong competition. Instead, we saw steady interest, a few accepted offers that fell apart during contract negotiations, and ultimately a sale slightly below asking.⁠
⁠
That transaction perfectly captured today's NYC market.⁠
⁠
After a prolonged downturn, more buyers are beginning to believe this may be a good time to buy. High rents and the return to office are pushing many people back toward homeownership.⁠
⁠
But buyers remain fragile. Any sign of economic or political uncertainty and they quickly retreat.⁠
⁠
In this month's market update, I discuss why prices remain flat, why luxury properties are outperforming, and what we're seeing across condos, co-ops, and new development.⁠

New Development Spotlight: The historic Emmet Building at 95 Madison Ave is being converted into luxury residences in Nomad. Another fascinating example of Manhattan’s office-to-residential transformation。

Classic New York never goes out of style.

Touring this elegant prewar condo on Fifth Avenue reminded me why so many buyers still fall in love with older Manhattan homes — the scale, the charm, and the feeling are simply different.

One thing we’re seeing more and more in NYC right now:

Buyers are selective again.

A few years ago, homes could get away with cold grey finishes and generic staging. Today, buyers are much more emotional and detail-oriented in how they evaluate value.

And when a home feels dated, buyers often negotiate harder instead of simply walking away.

That’s why staging today is less about “decorating” and more about positioning the property strategically for the current market.

Small cosmetic changes can sometimes make a very meaningful difference in buyer perception and pricing power.

If you’re thinking about selling this year, DM me “POSITION” and I’ll send you our pre-listing strategy checklist.
