Donald J. Trump's presidency has been over for nearly five months, but his impact on Manhattan real estate endures. Almost immediately following Trump’s inauguration and the introduction of some of his more odious policies, several buildings lobbied to remove the Trump name in protest. Of the eight New York City buildings that kept the name, CityRealty’s Trump Report, as released in 2018, showed prices in Trump-branded buildings dipping below average prices for all other Manhattan condos.
In the days following January 6, 2021, Trump’s reputation took a deep hit in the business and real estate communities, and some owners refused to even mention their address out of reluctance to be associated with him, however distantly. As reported in a recent Associated Press article, CityRealty research now shows that Trump-branded buildings are at a 15-year low. Prices per square foot are at an average of $1,530, the lowest since 2006.
While some buyers refuse to consider looking at Trump-branded buildings, others see bargains and show a willingness to look past the name at sweeping views, high-end finishes, and top-of-the-line amenities. Below, see a selection of listings at bargain prices.
