Open Houses Attract First Time Home Buyers in New York City!
My team and I had 3 open houses yesterday ( Sunday 1/25/09), each open house was about 1 hour and 30 minutes. Although there may be a slow down in buyers pulling the trigger and signing those contracts, but the buyers are still out on the market and looking at properties. Especially at entry level of properties (In Manhattan, that can be anywhere from $350,000 - $550,000). First time home buyers buying starter studio apartments, that segment of the market are still vibrant, very much alive and ready to commit if there is a match for their needs.
Take a look at the summary report of each open house below:
