As we head into the last month of Q1 we are thrilled to feel and see our city coming back to life! Along with the increased energy and warmer weather, we are also beginning to see the Manhattan real estate market heat up. We attribute this to pent up demand, low interest rates, a robust stock market, optimism about the vaccine, stimulus dollars to help small businesses, and meaningful discounts! The market started to pick up in October and has continued to strengthen each month. The number of contracts signed is up 31% compared to this time last year. With 40 contracts signed at $4M+ the last week of February 2021, the weekly contracts signed for the manhattan luxury market are in line with August 2016 (considered to be the last peak of the market). With more appointments scheduled, more buyers making offers and more sellers willing to negotiate, we aren’t surprised the number of new contracts signed jumped 167% last month to 518, compared to 194 the previous year. With high demand and lower inventory, days on market are also beginning to drop. We are excited about the increase in activity and look forward to the the Spring with great optimism.

This past year we have relied on technology more than ever in the real estate industry. Virtual showings, Matterport 3D models and online tours became par for the course. Technology is not only weaving its way into the way that we sell homes, but also in the way that we build them.
Mighty Buildings, a startup that builds homes using 3D printing and robotics, is a testament to this technology boom. After raising $70 million, this California based company has gone to work on over a dozen projects. Mighty Buildings prints 3D panels that can be assembled on-site with no painting or finishing needed. 3D printing is the future for building more quickly efficiently, and sustainably.
