Houlihan Lawrence 3Q17 Luxury Market Report

Excerpt from Third Quarter 2017 Executive Summary by Anthony Cutugno (Senior Vice President and Director of Private Brokerage)

New York luxury markets of Westchester (sales $2M and higher), Putnam and Dutchess (sales $1M and higher) counties posted a slight increase in year-to-date sales when compared to the same period last year. In the third quarter, Westchester experienced a 13% decline in homes sold compared to third quarter 2016, indicating a potential softening of the luxury market. Third quarter declines were concentrated in the $2M to $2.99M price range, the traditional sweet spot of the luxury market. In Greenwich, the sale of luxury homes ($3M and higher) increased in the third quarter and year-to-date. The ultra-luxury market ($5M and higher) has picked up steam with solid gains in both homes sold and pended sales. Luxury sales in Darien ($2M and higher) have increased markedly though the preponderance of sales are within the $2M to $2.99 price range. Inventory over $5M is building and the oversupply of homes for sale is
keeping buyers at bay. While market conditions can vary from one community to another, one trend that is here to stay is the demographic shift and changes in buyer preferences which are redefining the luxury market. Today’s luxury buyer wants to purchase a picture-perfect home – most don’t have the time, interest or know-how to improve or renovate a home. Many luxury homesellers are listening to the market – they are repairing and updating, staging and styling, lightening and brightening their homes in preparation for coming to market.
