The week by the numbers
We track single-family only so the signals stay clean.
Closings: 55
Median sale price: $699,888
Median days on market (DOM): 45
45 days reads as steady. Not a frenzy; not a stall. Well-priced homes are finding buyers inside 6–7 weeks, with outliers depending on condition and location.
Where the action was
10314 led the island with 11 closings. When one ZIP dominates volume, comps refresh faster and buyers/appraisers anchor to fresher data. If you’re listing in 10314, assume you’re competing in a busy arena; your first week matters most.
What moved fastest (by price)
We bucketed sales by closed price and looked at median DOM.
The $1.0–$1.24M band was the quickest at 25 days.
Translation:
Turnkey, well-staged homes in the move-up range are winning on speed.
Entry tiers are more price-sensitive right now; value buyers are negotiating on condition and credits.
Buyer Game Plan (This Week)
$1.0–$1.24M: Have underwriting ready and move decisively on clean homes; small terms tweaks often beat headline price cuts.
Under $750k: Hunt value among longer-DOM listings. Tie asks to inspection items or dated finishes to unlock credits instead of a big sticker cut.
Seller game plan (this week)
Price inside the band that’s selling. If your home sits above the active band, your presentation must be best-in-class or your price needs to bridge the gap.
Make the first frame count. If showings are less than 3 per week by the end of week two, refresh the lead photo/headline and tighten price 1–2% rather than waiting another month.
What I’m Watching Next
Does 10314 keep the volume lead? If yes, expect DOM to hold or dip there first.
Do we see more entry-tier cuts next week, widening value for first-time buyers?
Weekend traffic: if open-house counts tick up while DOM stays flat, fall pipeline is building.
TL;DR
Closings: 55
Median Sale: $699,888
Median DOM: 45 days
Top ZIP: 10314 (11 closings)
Fastest Band: $1.0–$1.24M (25 DOM)
