The Big Apple navigates its real estate troubles
In today’s Daily Download episode, HW+ Managing Editor Brena Nath spotlights New York City’s struggling housing market, as the metro is experiencing a significant decline in residential sales.
For some background on the story, here’s a brief summary of the article:
New York City is the U.S. epicenter of the coronavirus pandemic, and the local economy has been harshly impacted by the health crisis. But the city’s residential real estate market was facing problems before the pandemic hit town.According to the Real Estate Board of New York, the city’s total sales volume during the first quarter of this year fell 16% year-over-year from $10.5 billion to $8.7 billion. Total residential transactions also took a 16% year-over-year hit, down from 10,382 sales in the first quarter of 2019 to 8,702 sales during the first three months of this year.
But after the pandemic paralyzed the city’s economy and created a healthcare nightmare in its hospitals, the housing market took an even sharper dive.According to data from PropertyShark, residential sales activity sank from the second week of March to the end of the month in a 61% year-over-year freefall. Sales activity during the first two weeks of April were 62% below the same period one year earlier.
