Who Determines the Value of your Property?
In this difficult buyer’s market where values continue to slide downwards (albeit at a slow pace), sellers often ask why their home isn’t selling close to the property’s asking price. 
 
The reality is…
 
Sellers & Agents Set the Price
Buyers Set the Value
And Value is in part determined by how many competitive homes are for sale at the time you are listed, and more importantly (and this is the interesting thing), by how motivated your competitors are. If the sellers of competing property to yours are more motivated than you, they will likely sell before you, and that will certainly affect your value.
 
The Reality Is That Sellers Only Have Control Over 4 Things:
Price
Condition of The Home
Accessibility to Show the Home
Selecting the Right Broker
 
Sellers Do Not Control:
Value
Local Market Conditions
# Of Competitors on The Market
Motivations of Their Competitors
 
We are working hard to carefully review the competitive marketplace for each of our sellers. We continue to keep our sellers informed on the ever-changing landscape and strategize with them on how to best position and reposition their homes.

ROBIN'S ROUND UP
 

TOWNHOUSE MARKET UPDATE

We're excited to introduce a new section of our Newsletter: Robin's Round Up. Robin will be sharing statistics every month - focusing on a specific neighborhood or a specific type of property. This month, we've chosen to highlight Townhouses, both Downtown and on the Upper East Side. In this ever-changing competitive marketplace, it is more important than ever to be well-informed on recent sales data, both as a purchaser and seller.

THE WORLD OF SOTHEBY'S
 
A LASTING IMPRESSION

Powered by a Claude Monet landscape that doubled its estimate and elicited applause in the salesroom, Sotheby’s May Impressionist and Modern Auction in New York galloped to a market-affirming $349.9 million tally.

The record-setting work was Claude Monet’s landscape Meules (Haystacks), 1890. It fetched a record-breaking $110.7 million, selling to an unidentified purchaser.

The 1890 painting is one of only four works from Monet’s acclaimed Haystacks series to come to auction this century, and one of only eight remaining in private hands. The 17 others reside in museums.

At least eight bidders sought the Impressionist prize in a drawn-out bidding war that lasted eight minutes. It represents the highest price ever paid for an Impressionist work of art, and it ranks as the ninth-most expensive work of art to sell at auction. 

 
 

 

 
NEIGHBORHOOD SPOTLIGHT
MAKING AN ENTRANCE 

With a little more than two years to go before Penn Station is transformed into the brand-new Moynihan Train Hall, new plans and renderings have been unveiled this past week for the East End Gateway - the main entrance of the train depot, located at 33rd Street and Seventh Avenue. 

The East End Gateway, will lead passengers into the Long Island Rail Road concourse via an open, airy atrium with three escalators, bringing illumination and light in that concourse for the first time in over 50 years.

Beginning this month, construction is expected to be completed in 2020
