Average Manhattan, New York Apartment Prices
Posted by Wei Min Tan on May 11, 2022
Average Manhattan apartment prices are based on whether the apartment is a condo or coop. Price per square foot of a condo is higher than for a coop because: a condo owner gets real estate title, does not require board approval and can rent out the apartment as desired without limitation.

As apartments get larger, the price per square foot increases. Why? Generally, it’s because the larger apartments are on higher floors and have better views. Therefore, larger apartments get higher price per square foot.

Number of Sales by Size
2020 was Covid year and the market was shut down for three months. The bottom of the market during the Covid period was in July of 2020. The market recovery started in 2021 and we had record high sales volume. Sales volume in 2021 was almost as high as 2007 driven by pent up demand, low mortgage rates and overall optimism as the vaccines came out.
The most recent quarterly numbers in 2022 shows the same trend. Supply has increased a bit, to the relief of buyers. Overall market is defined by low supply and very high demand.
