Market Snapshot
There is a continued sense among buyers that there are few good deals available - so when new property hits the market, if priced appropriately, it is selling quickly. With so little inventory, especially so little reasonably priced "quality" inventory, there continues to be a logjam of buyers across most price ranges.
There has been a good deal of media coverage and market chatter about a possible glut of new condo inventory. From our perspective, the highest-end condo market ($10M and up) is the only price range where inventory may be outweighing demand.
Things to look out for this month: will the strength of the dollar start to drive foreign buyers out of the US market, and will anticipation of rising interest rates drive more buyers to act?

Sweating the Details
Olympic-size pools, basketball courts, catering kitchens, expansive lounges, full-size gyms, designer yoga studios, and the likes have all joined the amenity package for the "super luxury" new development market. Because every new project is trying to top the next, developers hope amenities will justify the record prices that we are now seeing. Today's "super luxury" buyer is looking for these over-the-top amenities, or "assets" within the building. Enjoy some of our favorite images of Manhattan's latest luxury amenities.

Spotlight on Lighting
The Stein Team interviewed Brian Pappa & Lauren MacCuaig of Frances Mildred Architecture & Design to discuss the importance of lighting in the design process:
"All too often overlooked during the design process, composed lighting is a potent and compelling way to add nuance and depth to any space. Beyond the physical qualities of a fixture itself, the light that it casts - how it plays on surfaces, and the resulting mood that is created - can transform even a simple space into transcendent architecture.
Thoughtfully designed illumination can enrich materials, manipulate shapes, and even change the perceived dimension of a space. The transformation may begin by selecting a sculptural chandelier to mark a dining table, but it will be the careful consideration of how the light behaves in the space, how the dimmed light spills onto the table that will evoke warmth and gather your guests for a dinner celebration.
With your designer you should discuss how you like to eat, sleep, relax, bathe, and design a lighting strategy that is commensurate with your personal taste and lifestyle. For it is this component that will elevate your newly designed house into a truly enduring home."
