As the fall season unfolded, the Manhattan real estate market gained momentum in October and November, delivering strong performance across several segments. December has continued on a positive note, though activity is expected to taper as we approach year-end and seasonal distractions take hold.
Inventory is also coming off the market at a higher rate than we typically see in winter, as many sellers choose to pause rather than list during a quieter period.
The presence of a K-shaped economy remains clear: while some parts of the market are still price-sensitive and cautious, the luxury sector continues to show resilience, outperforming the broader market with steady demand. As we close out the year, conditions are aligning for an interesting start to the new year.
Wishing you and your loved ones a season filled with joy, comfort, and the little moments that make this time of year meaningful.
随着秋季的推进，曼哈顿房地产市场在十月和十一月逐渐回暖，各个细分领域的表现都相当强劲。十二月的市场延续了这一积极势头，但随着年底临近以及季节性因素的影响，市场活跃度预计将有所放缓。
库存方面，也出现了比往年冬季更高的下架速度，许多卖家选择暂缓上市，而不是在相对清淡的时期试水，这为新一年市场的开局增添了新的变化。
“K型经济”的特征依然明显：部分市场仍对价格高度敏感、态度谨慎，而高端住宅市场则持续展现出韧性，以稳定的需求跑赢整体市场。随着我们结束这一年，市场条件正逐步铺设出新一年有趣的开局。
祝您和家人节日充满欢乐与温暖，并享受这一时期带来的点滴美好。

A New Housing Market Era Emerges in 2026 |
| 2026 marks a step toward “normal.” After four years of pandemic-driven extremes — including frozen migration, volatile mortgage rates, major affordability challenges, and uneven supply across regions — the U.S. housing market enters a new era.
In this next phase, home sales are positioned to grow again and affordability starts to improve as home prices level out and mortgage rates come down. Many of the unusual dynamics of the early 2020s are beginning to fade: mobility is slowly picking up, inventory is normalizing in many regions, and buyers and sellers are resetting their expectations after years of dramatic changes. |

Four Signals to Watch in 2026 |
|
|
|
|
|
|
| | Inventory Nationally, buyers could benefit from 10% growth in the number of homes coming to market, bringing more options and improved affordability. |
|
|
|
|
| | | Home Prices Prices are likely to rise modestly by 0.5%, while incomes grow faster — conditions that would improve affordability. |
|
|
|
|
| | | Mortgage Rates Rates are expected to trade in a range of 5.9%–6.9%, with an average of about 6.4% for the year, offering buyers a more favorable financing environment. |
|
|
|
|
| | | Home Sales Home sales could reach 4.25 million, a 5% increase from 2025, as lowering rates and growing inventory draw more buyers back to the market. |
