Key Findings

  1. The neighborhood's primary market indicator is the median sold price: $1,295,000, which represents recent transaction value; coupled with a median days on market: 335, this suggests a representative recent sale price but slower sales velocity that may indicate pricing friction.

  2. The gap between median listing price: $1,399,000 and the median sold price suggests sellers are listing above what recent transactions have been achieving, which may require price adjustments or longer marketing periods to reach contract.

  3. Market strength signals are positive: market temperature: hot with a price year-over-year trend: up and rent year-over-year trend: up; together with a median price per square foot: 1,376 and median market rent: 3,680, this points to continued upward pressure on valuations in well-positioned SFR and condo stock and supports targeting quality product for list-price resiliency.

  4. Financing and timing risks are elevated: interest rate pressure: elevated which, when combined with the long median days on market, increases the importance of priced-to-market listings and flexible transaction terms—recommend buyers and sellers model offer contingencies and consider staged pricing strategies to manage execution risk.

Key Findings

  1. median sold price: $1,292,500 is the primary indicator of recent market value in ZIP 10016 and represents the most reliable signal of transaction-level pricing given the available data.

  2. median listing price: $1,397,000 sits above the median sold price, which may indicate pricing friction between seller expectations and recent transaction prices and suggests that some listings are still testing the market.

  3. median days on market: 335 is very long relative to typical urban turnover and appears to reflect slower sales velocity despite a hot market temperature; this combination suggests that while the market shows strength, transactions may be concentrated in select segments or price bands.

  4. median price per square foot: $1,376 combined with a up price year-over-year trend and a up rent year-over-year trend points to continued appreciation and rental demand, but elevated interest rate pressure may temper buyer activity and prolong time-to-sale.
