New York’s Luxury Market Comeback; A First Look at Cipriani’s Canaletto Collection

New York’s Luxury Market Comeback

For the first time in a year and a half, home contract signings increased in Brooklyn and Manhattan through October. While the state of affairs is still not exceptional, this is a marked improvement over October 2022, when the market was in free-fall. It could also be a potential sign for stabilization and continued improvement, according to the Real Deal. It all depends on how the Federal Reserve handles interest rates in the coming months. The Reserve chose not to alter interest rates at the start of November, and Manhattan’s luxury market may already be feeling the positive effects. Twenty-four contracts over $4 million were signed last week, doubling the previous week’s total, reports Mansion Global. Of the homes sold, 13 were condos, the most expensive of which being an under-construction residence at 50 West 66th Street, which asked $23.25 million.
