As of February 24, 2021, there are 9,887 condos, co-ops, condops, and townhouses for sale throughout Manhattan, northern Brooklyn, western Queens, and parts of the Bronx. The Manhattan condo median price jumped 2.5 percent from last week to $2,186,835 ($1,712 per square foot). The Manhattan co-op median price also rose slightly to $892,205 (all figures per CityRealty listings).
We are now just over one month into the Biden administration, but the past four years have left a mark on many of us, including the owners of properties in Trump-branded buildings throughout New York. Prior to 2014, CityRealty records show that Trump-branded condos regularly sold for more than 50% higher than the overall Manhattan average price per square foot. But between the former president's policies and a new crop of more modern, stylish, and amenity-rich condos, the buildings that still bear his name (some have removed it) are losing what cachet they might have had at one time.
In this article:
While Manhattan closing prices have remained relatively flat in recent years (with the exception of last year), CityRealty data shows that Trump-branded condos have steadily declined to a point where they are down 25% since 2016, prices unseen here since 2006. This is bad news for both the flurry of owners who listed their apartments in Trump-branded buildings after Election Day and the Capitol riots, and for the former president himself - a recent Washington Post article muses that Mr. Trump's already struggling properties have been damaged by the coronavirus pandemic and his polarizing policies.
The news comes at a time when 257 sales listings throughout New York, apartments in Trump-branded buildings among them, experienced price reductions in the past seven days. A full, sortable chart may be found below; please be advised that all of the following figures reflect cumulative price cuts as opposed to the most recent reductions.
