John’s New York Market Insights
In 2023, New York’s residential real estate markets faced challenges, including diminished buying power and a price adjustment in Manhattan. Sales fell for the fifth straight quarter, with market-wide closings decreasing by 3%. New listings hit a four-year low, contributing to a decline in inventory.
However, signs of stabilization emerged as inflation cooled and mortgage rates began to subside.
Cooperatives saw an increase in inventory, while the rental market experienced its first decline in median rental prices.
In early 2024, an uptick in customer calls for showings suggests a window of opportunity for buyers, but uncertainty looms with economic and political factors at play. Read his full New York Market Update.
Independent but Never Alone
Going independent can feel isolating, but not when you’re part of the Side Community.
Side is the industry’s only national network made up of company owners who are collaborative, supportive and eager to learn from each other. It’s one of the main reasons agents partner with Side.

These top New York agents left traditional brokerages to bet on themselves — and it’s paying off.
In just the first year, I've gotten more referrals from the Side network than I did during the last five years as an agent with a legacy firm.
