Reporting period: October 5–11, 2026; comparison of the first two October weeks
Activity with weekly variation
Olshan recorded 25 contracts, five fewer than the prior week. The first two October weeks total 55 versus 54 last year. The report covers Manhattan homes asking at least $4 million, not every New York price segment.
A contract is not a closing
The mix was 15 condos, six co-ops, one condop and three townhouses. Their last asking prices total about $177.2 million. This is asking-price volume, not completed sales or a guarantee of eventual prices.
Apply the evidence to your own plan
Compare current offerings separately from recent closed comparables. Review each home’s costs, condition and financing. Sellers can discuss pricing against comparable closings, competing inventory and property features. Contact Daimian to organize a consultation around your budget, timing and intended use.
