OneKey® MLS has released its annual housing market report, detailing residential real estate trends across the New York Metropolitan Area. The analysis notes that inventory shortages are driving up prices in some areas, while others see steadier growth, and buyer activity is returning to pre-pandemic levels. In 2025, pending sales rose 0.7% to 50,541, and closed sales dipped 0.6% to 48,833. Median home prices increased 5.9% year over year to $675,000, though at a slower pace than in past years. Inventory dropped 8.2% to 12,794 active listings, highlighting ongoing supply constraints. Local performance varied notably by region: New York City showed pronounced contrasts . Manhattan faced challenging conditions, with closed sales falling sharply—down 77.7% year over year—and inventory swelling to a 22.3-month supply, signaling sluggish demand and prolonged negotiations. Conversely, the Bronx outperformed with a 12.3% increase in median sales price to $410,000, while Brooklyn and Queens maintained steady buyer interest despite listings spending longer on the market. Long Island stood out for its stability amid broader volatility . Nassau County’s 9,799 closed sales were virtually unchanged compared to last year, as median prices climbed 5.9% to $805,000. Suffolk County’s sales edged down just 0.4%, but sellers there still averaged over 100% of the original list price, contrasting with softer conditions in nearby Manhattan and indicating Long Island’s persistent demand for appropriately priced homes. The Hudson Valley presented yet another picture . Putnam County’s closed sales jumped 15.6%, and Ulster County rose 8.3%. Median prices grew 7.6% in Putnam and 7.3% in Rockland County, highlighting continued strong buyer demand for comparatively affordable communities, in contrast to weak sales growth in parts of Manhattan. “Our data shows the market is adjusting rather than declining," said Richard Haggerty, CEO of OneKey® MLS. "While Manhattan recalibrates, parts of Long Island and the Hudson Valley display strength, revealing that local markets are progressing at different rates but gradually moving toward balance." Sellers across the region performed well in 2025, averaging 99.2% of the original list price. Single-family homes received 99.6%, condominiums 98.3%, and co-ops 97.4%. Transactions for homes priced at $849,000 or more increased 11.4%. Looking ahead to 2026, OneKey® MLS anticipates a gradual improvement in the New York metropolitan area . Mortgage rates fell in the second half of 2025 and are expected to remain near 6%, supporting some gains in affordability. Inventory growth will likely continue unevenly by county, with moderate price appreciation expected.

Farmingdale, NY – January 20, 2026 –The OneKey® MLS December 2025 Market Report highlights a housing market that closed the year with measured growth, resilient demand, and continued price stability across the region’s diverse housing segments. Across the OneKey® MLS service area, total closed sales increased 1.5% year-over-year, reaching 4,303 transactions, with gains across single-family homes, condominiums, and co-ops. Median sales prices continued their upward trajectory, rising 3.8% year-over-year to $675,000, reflecting sustained buyer confidence amid constrained inventory. Single-family homes led the market with 3,229 closed sales, reflecting a 1.4% increase over the previous year. The median sales price for single-family homes rose to $740,000, up 4.2% from December 2024. Condominiums saw a median price increase of 9.0%, while co-ops rose by 8.9%. Pending sales for all property types increased by 12.8%, indicating positive momentum entering early 2026. Inventory remained tight, with total homes for sale down 9.0% year-over-year, helping to keep days on market relatively low. Properties sold in a median of 54 days, nearly 7% faster than one year ago, while sellers continued to receive close to the asking price, averaging 98.6% of the original list price. “December’s data shows a market that continues to move forward with discipline and durability,” said Richard Haggerty, CEO of OneKey® MLS. “Even with ongoing inventory challenges, buyers and sellers remained engaged through year-end, and the strength we’re seeing in pending sales and pricing points to a constructive start for 2026. These trends reflect the adaptability of our professionals and the enduring appeal of our region.” Looking ahead, market activity is expected to remain steady as demand continues to outpace available inventory. With buyer engagement holding firm and pricing trends showing resilience, the region enters 2026 on a solid footing.

Farmingdale, NY – December 16, 2025 – The New York real estate market remained strong and accelerated in November. Home values rose, and buyer interest increased. The regional median sales price jumped 6.5% year-over-year to $685,000, showing high demand in the New York Metropolitan area. Closed sales fell 7.5% year-over-year due to seasonality, but the market stayed strong. Pending sales rose across all housing categories: single-family homes up 4.0%, condominiums up 6.0%, and co-ops up 11.6%. This contract activity mirrors national patterns, underscoring that buyers are responding quickly to steady mortgage rates and favorable fall conditions. Richard Haggerty, CEO of OneKey® MLS, said: “Pending sales, especially the 5% jump across all property types, show buyers gaining confidence. Consumers are moving quickly, setting up an active start to 2026.” Meanwhile, the single-family homes segment continues to drive the market, with median sales reaching $750,000—a 6.3% increase from November 2024. As inventory remains limited, down 7.1% year-over-year for all property types, competition for move-in-ready homes continues to boost equity gains for current homeowners. Looking ahead, expect this competitive environment to persist into early 2026, as buyers remain eager despite limited options. Many are expanding their searches to surrounding counties and suburban markets in hopes of finding suitable homes. This increase in activity is likely to support continued price growth and keep market momentum strong as the new year begins, sustaining the region's positive trends.
