MANHATTAN

Manhattan sale prices saw healthy growth in the

second quarter, though the growth rate was roughly

half the 2014 annual rate.

Page 4

Sluggish inventory growth in Manhattan kept prices

at an all-time high, especially as the number of co-op

listings decline.

Page 6

Tight inventory and resilient demand, both domestic

and international, meant that the typical Manhattan

homeseller received nearly 100 percent of initial asking

price in the second quarter.

Page 8

Manhattan rent prices inched up as the busy summer

season approaches - led by strong price growth among

studio apartments.

Welcome to the StreetEasy Quarterly Market Report

BROOKLYN

Brooklyn sale prices reached an all-time high, led

by double digit growth in the borough’s Northwest

submarket.

Page 12

Homes priced in the top price tier spent the shortest

amount of time on the market in Brooklyn, highlighting

strong buyer demand for newer and more luxurious

apartments.

Page 15

Bidding wars were the rule and not the exception in

some neighborhoods in Brooklyn’s Prospect Park

submarket.

Brooklyn rent prices eased slightly from last year,

though lagging income growth makes Brooklyn’s rent

burden the greatest among all boroughs.

We’re pleased to introduce our new Quarterly Market Report , powered by New York City’s largest and most comprehensive database of sales and rental

listings. Here you will find analysis and an extensive range of metrics for the sales and rental markets in Manhattan and Brooklyn in the second quarter of

2015. Our team of researchers highlighted a few notable trends in each borough from Q2 data:

While Manhattan home prices reached a record-high in June, annual

price growth among resales was roughly a quarter less than the 2014

rate at the close of the second quarter. The median resale price of all

Manhattan homes rose 5.8 percent year-over-year in June to a median

of $936,683, according to StreetEasy’s Manhattan Price Index (MPI).

Monthly price growth across the borough has slowed for 17 consecutive

months.

The key market force driving high prices in Manhattan is constrained

inventory. Although the number of for-sale listings available

throughout the quarter rose by 14.1 percent from the previous quarter

in an expected seasonal boost, inventory was just 0.1 percent above

last year’s total. The lack of significant growth of available units was

due in large part to a 3.1 percent decline in co-op listings. Listings for

condos and townhouses in Manhattan managed to grow by 3.0 percent

and 11.0 percent from last year, respectively.

SELLERS GET SMART WITH PRICING STRATEGIES

Key price indicators in the second quarter show that many Manhattan

sellers are effective with their pricing strategies. The share of all listings

that saw a price cut during the second quarter declined to 25.9 percent

from 32.0 percent last year and the size of the median discount fell

slightly to 6.25 percent from 6.51 percent in the second quarter of 2014.

The median sale-to-list price ratio in Manhattan rose to 98.9 percent,

an increase of 0.5 percent from last year, meaning sellers were able to

receive most if not all of their initial asking price in the second quarter.

CONTRACT ACTIVITY STRONG IN Q2

As is typical for second quarters, the total number of pending sales

saw healthy growth from the previous quarter, increasing by 25.3

percent to 3,338, which was 0.8 percent greater than last year. The

fact that pending sales volume increased since last year despite price

growth and short supply is a testament to the strength of domestic

and international demand for Manhattan real estate. Homes that went

into contract in the second quarter spent a median time of just 44 days

on the market, one day longer than last year which itself was a record

low according to StreetEasy data. Eagerness to lock in a low mortgage

interest rate and fierce competition among other buyers are the key

drivers behind the resiliency of contract activity and near-historic short

time on market.

LOW VACANCY FUELS HIGHER RENT PRICES

According to government figures, Manhattan’s rental vacancy rate was

just 4.1 percent in 2014. The result is fierce competition among renters,

higher rents, and a growing affordability problem for many Manhattan

residents as rent price growth outpaces income growth. The median

asking rent in the second quarter increased by 1.5 percent from last

year to $3,300, a new record high according to StreetEasy data, which

goes back to 2008. Studios saw the greatest increase in price, with

median asking rent increasing by 5.1 percent to $2,495, while the

median asking price for 1 bedroom units was unchanged at $3,200.

The most expensive submarket was Downtown, with a median asking

rent of $3,700, followed by Midtown ($3,500), Upper West Side ($3,350),

Upper East Side ($2,850) and Upper Manhattan ($2,150).

Supply shortgage fuels high prices in Manhattan, but price growth slows in Q2

($957,982), Midtown ($764,213), and Upper Manhattan ($530,378).

Although homes in Upper Manhattan had the lowest median resale

price, they posted the highest annual growth rate at 9.6 percent -

nearly twice the Manhattan-wide rate.

Prices are expected to rise yet again in July, according to StreetEasy’s

Manhattan Price Forecaset, which calls for the median resale price to

increase 0.4 percent from June to $940,217.

Manhattan resale prices continued to increase in June although the

year-over-year growth rate slowed to roughly three-quarters of the

2014 rate. June resale prices were 5.8 percent higher than last year,

Price Index. The median resale price of all homes closed the second

quarter 11.1 percent above the previous market peak level ($842,759)

set in April 2008, according to the Index.

Homes in the Downtown market had the highest resale price ($1.18

million), followed by Upper West Side ($1.10 million), Upper East Side

Homes snatched up quickly as demand exceeds supplyLow supply in Manhattan and a seasonal

boost to buying activity meant that

available homes went into contract

quickly in Q2. The typical home spent

just 44 days on the market , one day more

than last year and 15 days shorter than

last quarter. Co-ops spent the least time

on the market, typically lasting only 41

days, while condos took a median time of

49 days to enter contract.

How is time on the market measured?

The number of days from the original

listing on StreetEasy to when it enters

contract. After a buyer enters contract on a

unit, it is pulled from the market and is no

longer available to other buyers - creating

a logical end point to “days on market.”

Low vacancy pushes asking rents higher in ManhattanWith the official vacancy rate at less than

4 percent, according to recent Census

data, the Manhattan rental market

remains highly competitive. The median

asking monthly rent rose 1.5 percent from

last year to $3,300. The price of studio

apartments saw the greatest increase in

the last year, rising 5.1 percent to $2,495.

Manhattan sellers get more of initial asking price in Q2Manhattan home sellers were able to

get more of their initial asking price

in the final sale price in Q2 as supply

continues to lag behind strong domestic

and international demand. The typical

Manhattan home sold for 98.9 percent of

the intial asking price set by the seller, an

increase of 0.5 percent from last year. The

Upper West Side and Upper Manhattan

submarkets saw the highest sale-to-list

price ratios, both at 100 percent, while

the Midtown submarket saw the greatest

annual growth at 0.8 percent.

Page 11: Quarterly Market Report Q2 2015 - The Real Deal · Page 16 Brooklyn rent prices eased slightly from last year, ... StreetEasy Quarterly Market Report Q2 2015 | PAGE 5. Key price indicators

The median resale value of all Brooklyn homes reached an all-time high

at the close of the second quarter according to StreetEasy’s Brooklyn

Price Index (BPI), although annual price growth slowed to less than half

the 2014 annual growth rate. While the resale value of Brooklyn homes

grew by 10.1 percent in 2014, the year-over-year price growth in June

2015 slowed to 4.1 percent.

The small but rising number of homes available for sale has helped

to slow price growth in Brooklyn. Although the number of homes

available for sale throughout the second quarter jumped 17.4 percent

from last year to 5,262, it was still less than half (44.6 percent) of the

total number of homes available for sale in Manhattan. Inventory grew

in all five of Brooklyn’s submarkets, although the strongest growth

was seen in East Brooklyn (which includes Crown Heights, Bedford-

Stuyvesant, Bushwick, Brownsville and East New York) and North

Brooklyn (which includes Williamsburg and Greenpoint).

THE TYPICAL BROOKLYN SELLER GETS 100% OF ASKING PRICE

The median sale-to-list price ratio rose by 0.4 percent from last year to

100.0 percent in the second quarter, meaning Brooklyn home sellers

could expect to receive most if not all of their initial asking price in the

final sale of their home. Sale-to-list price ratios exceeded 100 percent

in the Prospect Park (101.8 percent) and East Brooklyn (101.2 percent)

submarkets, which were fertile grounds for bidding wars as buyers

fiercely competed for available units in those areas. Other key price

indicators show that sellers retain more of the bargaining power in

Brooklyn. The share of all homes for sale that saw a price cut fell by 4.4

percent from last year to 21.2 percent in the second quarter, and the

median discount between initial asking price and final recorded sales

price fell to 5.65 percent.

BROOKLYN HOMES SELL FASTER THAN MANHATTAN

Despite the growth in prices, Brooklyn buyers were quick to close on

sales in the second quarter. The median time on market of homes that

went into contract was 41 days – three days shorter than Manhattan

homes during the same quarter but 6 days longer than last year. Homes

sold the quickest in the Prospect Park submarket (31 days), followed

by North Brooklyn (35 days), Northwest Brooklyn (36 days), South

Brooklyn (55 days) and East Brooklyn (58 days). The demand for higher-

priced homes in Brooklyn was particularly acute in the second quarter.

Homes priced in the top price tier (above $716,000) took just 36 days to

sell, whereas homes priced in the bottom price tier (below $381,000)

took 54 days to sell, indicating that newer or higher-quality units in

Brooklyn were far more attractive to existing buyers than older and

perhaps lower-quality listings.

BROOKLYN RENTS DIP SLIGHTLY

Renters in Brooklyn face the highest rent burden in the city according

to a recent StreetEasy study, although price trends in the second

quarter could spell relief for Brooklynites. The median asking rent fell

1.0 percent from last year to $2,550. Two-bedroom rentals saw the

greatest price drop, with the median asking rent declining 7.1 percent

from last year to $2,500. The most expensive submarket was North

Brooklyn, with a median asking rent of $3,100, followed by Northwest

Brooklyn ($2,990), Prospect Park ($2,650), East Brooklyn ($2,400) and

South Brooklyn ($1,800).

Brooklyn resale price growth in June slowed to less than half the 2014

rate amid strong inventory growth across the borough. June resale

prices were 4.1 percent higher than last year, reaching a median of

$526,474 according to StreetEasy’s Brooklyn Price Index. The median

resale price of all homes closed the second quarter 5.8 percent above

the previous market peak level ($497,449) set in November 2006,

according to the Index.

Homes in the North Brooklyn submarket had the highest resale price

High demand leads to bidding wars in Prospect Park & East BrooklynThe median sale-to-list price ratio among

Brooklyn homes edged up to 100.0

percent in Q2. In Prospect Park and East

Brooklyn, the sales-to-list price ratio

exceeded 100 percent (101.8 percent and

101.2 percent , respectively), hinting at

particularly fierce competition among

buyers in those markets which led to

bidding wars for available units.

What is the sale-to-list price ratio?

The final recorded sales price of a home

divided by its initial asking price. A sale-to-

list price ratio of 90 percent means the home

sold for 90 percent of its initial asking price.

The sale-to-list price ratio reported is the

exact middle ratio among all homes that

we are able to match a recorded sale with a

listing on StreetEasy.

BROOKLYN RECORDED SALES

StreetEasy Quarterly Market Report Q2 2015 | PAGE 16

1 Sales data is based on Brooklyn condo, co-op, townhouse, and single family home transactions recorded by the New York City Department of Finance as of July 15, 2015 and adjusted using a multiplier. This may not represent all Q2 2015 sales transactions.

Page 17: Quarterly Market Report Q2 2015 - The Real Deal · Page 16 Brooklyn rent prices eased slightly from last year, ... StreetEasy Quarterly Market Report Q2 2015 | PAGE 5. Key price indicators

Prices ease slightly in Q2, but Brooklyn rents remain highly unaffordable for most rentersAccording to a StreetEasy study of asking

rents and incomes across the city, the

typical Brooklyn household will need to

spend an estimated 60.0 percent of its

annual income on asking rent in 2015 -

the highest rent burden among all five

boroughs in New York City. The median

asking rent declined 1.0 percent from last

year to $2,550, providing a small measure

of relief to highly burdened renters in

Brooklyn.

GLOSSARY

Days on Market

The number of days from the original listing on StreetEasy to when

it enters contract. After a buyer enters contract on a unit, it is pulled

from the market and is no longer available to other buyers - creating a

logical end point to “days on market.” Measuring days on market by the

number of days from the original listing to the recorded closing date

may be skewed by lengthy closing periods during which the unit is not

technically on the market.

Inventory

The sum of all homes that were available on StreetEasy at any point

during the quarter. For example, if a unit was originally listed in

February and sold in May, it would be included in the inventory number

for the first quarter and the second quarter. This approach allows us to

analyze what was available to buyers in a given quarter - instead of an

arbitrary moment or cut-off point.

Median Asking Price

The exact middle asking price among all asking prices of listed homes

during the quarter.

Median Price Cut

The exact middle price cut (as a percentage of total asking price)

among all listings on StreetEasy during the quarter that saw a price cut.

Median Price Per Square Foot

The exact middle recorded price per square foot among all homes that

sold during the quarter that included square footage information in

closing documents with the New York City Department of Finance.

Median Sale-to-List Price Ratio

The final recorded sales price of a home divided by its initial asking

price. A sale-to-list price ratio of 90 percent means the home sold for

90 percent of its initial asking price. The sale-to-list price ratio reported

is the exact middle ratio among all homes that we are able to match a

recorded sale with a listing on StreetEasy.

Median Sales Price

The exact middle sales price among all recorded sales prices of homes

that closed during the quarter. In general, median values are more

accurate than average values, which may be skewed by price outliers

(a few sales that are extremely expensive or extremely inexpensive).

In order to consider only arms-length transactions, we do not include

foreclosures or sales prices lower than $10,000 in this calculation.

Pending Sales

The number of all homes that entered contract during the quarter.

Price Tiers

All listings are placed into one of three price tiers - bottom, middle, and

top - using price cut-offs derived from a 12-month weighted moving

average of recorded sales prices at the 33rd and 66th percentiles. Price

tier cut-offs change each month in order to capture evolving trends

in homes that are being sold. The top tier corresponds with the most

expensive home listings.

Share of Inventory with a Price Cut

The share of all active inventory during the quarter that saw a price cut.

GLOSSARY

StreetEasy Price Forecasts

The Manhattan Price Forecast and the Brooklyn Price Forecast predict

the change in resale prices one month out from the current reported

period. Each forecast incorporates the Price Index for each borough,

StreetEasy’s comprehensive database of listing prices and days on

market - two leading indicators to future resale prices to accurately

forecast what next month’s resale prices will be before the release of

publicly recorded sales data.

StreetEasy Price Indices

The Manhattan Price Index (MPI) and Brooklyn Price Index (BPI) are

monthly indices that track changes in resale prices of condo, co-op,

and townhouse units. Each index uses a repeat-sales method of

comparing the sales prices of the same properties since January 1995

in Manhattan and January 2004 in Brooklyn. Given this methodology,

each Index accurately captures the change in home prices by

controlling for the varying composition of homes sold in a given month.

Data on arms-length sales of homes is sourced from the New York City

Department of Finance.
