June 2026 Market Snapshot
QUEENS
Buyer demand remains strong, particularly for well-priced condos and co-ops. Properties positioned correctly are continuing to attract quick offers and multiple showings within days of hitting the market.
BROOKLYN
Luxury inventory and townhomes remain historically limited, creating highly competitive conditions for buyers. Preparation, financing strength, and quick decision-making continue to be essential.
NASSAU COUNTY
Suburban demand remains fierce as buyers continue seeking additional space and lifestyle upgrades. Homes with manicured curb appeal, updated interiors, and move-in-ready conditions are generating significant activity and competitive bidding scenarios.

Summer Homeowner Tip
Audit Your Cooling Systems Before Peak Heat Arrives
Before summer temperatures fully arrive, take time to:
- Check ceiling fans and airflow throughout the home
- Replace HVAC and AC filters
- Clear debris from outdoor condenser units
- Test cooling systems early before heatwaves hit
Seller Advantage Tip:
If your home is currently on the market, maintaining a crisp, cool indoor temperature during showings can significantly improve buyer experience. A comfortable home encourages buyers to stay longer and emotionally connect with the property.
