June 2022

Market Report

Inventory is up and mortgage rates are ascending, and as a result activity in Manhattan and Brooklyn have slowed.

This month was notable for the Manhattan Luxury Market ($5M+). Sales fell annually for the third month in a row. However, average price per square foot and days on market both improved year-over-year.

- Active listings rose 3% year-over-year, which was the first increase in Manhattan in over 11 months.

- Days on market fell below 200 despite the climb in inventory.

- There were a total of 74 sales, which is below average for May. This was a 24% fall from previous years.

Juneteenth

Here at the Ronita Kalra team, we wanted to highlight, Juneteenth- the holiday commemorating the end of slavery in the United States. It is also called Emancipation Day or Juneteenth Independence Day. The name “Juneteenth” references the date of the holiday, combining the words “June” and “nineteenth.”

Organizations like Juneteenth NYC can help you get more involved in honoring an invaluable day.

Father's Day

Father's Day 2022 fell on Sunday, June 19. Our team wouldn't miss a day honoring all of our clients, colleagues and friends who are fathers, grandfathers and father figures.

Cheers to all of you.

My own father and husband are both amazing examples of how each generation is becoming more and more involved in the day-to-day of our children's lives. I love and appreciate you both!
