Weekend Wrap

Just a thought- where is the inventory? A look at StreetEasy shows that over both the 3 month and 6 month time frame that inventory is down close to 13%. It is down a slightly greater amount from the May peak. It was a busy Summer, for my company busier than the summer before. One catch though, all the buyers were in the sub- $1 Million category. So, more work for the same amount of commission. Third Quarter reports should be real interesting a few weeks down the road. Don't be surprised to see a sizable pick up in volume.
Side note- turn to The Brompton Ad on Page 12 of Sunday's real estate section in the times. The ad copy reads "opening to rave reviews". The rave review cited- from A. Fine Blog. It's a good thing that I only write about buildings that I genuinely like, and The Brompton is at the top of the list.
