2024 Q3 Property Market Report
This week we welcome local resident Casey Soloff, a Licensed Real Estate Salesperson with Compass, who breaks down the latest Q3 property market report and explains what all the numbers really mean:
“Looking back at Brooklyn this past quarter, you would never suspect that interest rates, after a steep two year climb to their 23 year high, finally began their much anticipated descent. Or that the real estate business underwent a shift that could change the way property is bought and sold for the foreseeable future.
No. If you read the latest market report, you would assume it was business as usual. Prices across the borough continued to tick up incrementally, again. Luxury apartments outperformed the rest of the market, again. Condos continued to shine, while co-ops and houses lagged behind in the number of units closed. Again.
…
Of course, the biggest news of the quarter happened on September 18th, when the Federal Reserve lowered interest rates by 50 basis points, down from the highest they’ve been in 23 years.
Since then, mortgage rates have gone… up?
