New York City Q1 2023 Market Update
MARKET OVERVIEW
Please find the Sotheby’s International Realty 2023 Q1 report. As you look through, it is important to note that comparing Q1 ‘23 to Q1 ‘22 is a bit misleading, as ‘22 Q1 was an incredibly active quarter and we saw more real estate change hands than ever before. This was due to the pent up demand from buyers who had been on the sidelines during the depths of the pandemic who finally reemerged and went on a buying frenzy. The frenzy came to an abrupt halt in April of 2022 with the rise in interest rates and the drop in the financial markets. From April ‘22 to until very recently, we saw far far less real estate trade as buyers again retreated to the sidelines. It has only been in the past month or so that we have seen an increase in activity, with buyers now returning to the market.
One other observation from this report worth mentioning is that while Q1 of ‘23 was slow in almost all sectors, the ultra-high end, $10m and above, remained strong and this is reflected in the fact that the average sales price rose year over year. We attribute this to the fact that ultra-high-net-worth buyers have been undeterred by interest rate hikes as many purchase in all cash.
We appreciate the continued trust you place in us and our entire team. We value the opportunity to advise you, your family, colleagues & friends. Please always feel free to reach out to us with any questions.

Testimonials
“My wife and I have used Robin and Jeremy Stein as our real estate brokers for the past 15 years, representing us in the sale of four apartments in New York City. We have used the Stein Team to represent us because of their professionalism, market knowledge, hard work and ability to maximize value. In every instance, they have dedicated the appropriate resources, time and effort in managing the sale process resulting in a successful transaction.”
- THOMAS
“Jeremy and Robin are the only people that I would trust as my brokers. They take the time to understand precisely what I am looking for, and as a result, constantly deliver the right stuff. Whether I’m on the buy side or the sell side, Jeremy and Robin always protect my interests, yet still manage to get the deal done. Both their strategy and execution are brilliant, and there’s no one else I’d want in my corner when it comes to residential real estate.”
- ERIC
“Jeremy and Robin are professional, knowledgeable and extremely effective. In addition, we always know that they will put our interests first. Twice, they have talked us out of purchasing homes, and each time something better came along later, just as they had suggested it would. We recommend Jeremy and Robin wholeheartedly.”
- ED & LAUREN
“Thank you for the great job you and your team did in helping to sell our home. We always felt well supported, from our earliest meetings through the final closing. The time, effort, energy and focus that you showed really made a difference, and we appreciate the high level of communication with your team throughout the process. We would highly recommend your group in the future!”
- MICHAEL & LAURIE
“Your broker becomes the most important person in your life when finding a home for your family. Jeremy and Robin were trusted advisors during these times in our life. I wouldn’t trust anyone else with that responsibility.”

The historic absorption range of equilibrium for the New York City market area is 6-8 months. We ended Q1 2023 with 6,120 active units on the market. The absorption rate of active inventory was 6.8 months in Q1 2023. This statistic means that it would take 6.8 months to absorb the active inventory that is currently on the market based upon the rate of sales over the last 6 months. Based on the same calculation, it would take less than 7 months to absorb the current inventory priced below $2M, less than 12 months for inventory priced between $2M-$6M, over 17 months for inventory priced between $6M-20M, and nearly 2 years to absorb properties priced above $20M given the current inventory in Manhattan.
