This summer the city continued to be immune to the rest of the country’s housing woes, according to a report released by the Real Estate Board of New York. REBNY’s third quarter stats show the average price of homes in the city up 20 percent from the same time last year, to $782,000; Brooklyn prices averaged $621,000, an 8 percent hike over 2006. The average condo price in Brooklyn, meanwhile, was $613,000, a slightly more modest 5 percent rise over last year. Good news, of course, but we have to wonder whether the fourth quarter’s going to look this rosy. Predictions?

  1. Wall St bonuses will be fine this year (wouldnt count on ’08)

    Goldman has already put aside 16 BILLION for bonuses;
    Merrill Lynch has UP’D the % of revenue for bonuses from last year (and overall revenue is up).

  3. 9:09 You hit the nail right on the head. In addition, I am also surprised because I have seen tons of price cuts. Price cuts that range anywhere from 75k to 125k…so this very surprising!
