From September 7-13, 10 luxury contracts were signed at $4 million and above for a total asking price volume of $60,385,000. Olshan's market report observes that this is the lowest number of contracts signed in a post-Labor Day weekend since 2013, when 10 contracts were also signed.
The report also notes that this was the ninth time in 2020 that not a single co-op contract was signed at $4 million and above. However, the week's top contracts were dominated by condominiums in typically co-op-rich bastions of New York City. Chief among them was a duplex condo at 27 East 79th Street asking $12.495 million. Developer's and buyer's broker Pamela Johananoff of Corcoran described the transaction as emblematic of the new age of real estate - the international couple never set foot in the apartment, but signed the contract after three FaceTime showings.
The second-highest contract also took place in a new Upper East Side condominium - #14A at the nearly-completed Beckford Tower, a three-bedroom unit asking $6.65 million. These local buyers saw the apartment for themselves three times before New York went on lockdown, and one more time last week.
