The Weekly Manhattan Market Report - 03/02/2026

The Luxury Sector:

Thirty-two contracts were signed last week in Manhattan at $4 million and above, nine more than the previous week. Condos dominated, outselling co-ops 29-9, with three townhouses also in the mix. February 2026 closed with 123 luxury contracts signed, compared to 114 in February 2025. The most striking difference, however, was in total dollar volume. February 2026 generated $1.38 billion in signed contracts, with an average price of approximately $11.24 million, versus $954.9 million and an average of $8.38 million in February 2025. The reason: this year‘s deals were inked at significantly higher price points. The top contract was a townhouse at 15 E. 63rd St., asking $39.5 million, after being reduced from $65 million when it first came to the market two years ago. The second-highest contract was unit 18N at 175 5th Ave., asking $24.8 million, which began marketing off floorplan in September.

Overall City/Market Supply:

There are currently 5,376 listings on the market, about 7% less inventory than this time last year. Week-over-week, supply increased just .5%, continuing the pattern of minimal growth. Overall, inventory in early 2026 remains a noticeable step-down from the level seen at this point in recent years. Looking at the weekly supply numbers, 262 new listings came on the market, a 4.4% decline from the prior week. This marks three consecutive weeks of essentially flat supply growth, which is somewhat unusual for this time of year, when inventory typically begins to build on a week-over-week basis. Whether they slow down, is weather-related or simply a temporary pause before larger waves of listings hit the market remains to be seen.

Liquidity Pace (The 30-Day Pace of Buyer Demand):

The 30-Day liquidity pace shows 851 contracts signed over the rolling period., a 6% decline from last week and 3% below this point last year. For the month, February closed with 851 contracts signed, roughly 100 fewer than last year‘s total. On the weekly front, however, recent contract-signed activity shows a much stronger picture: 234 apartments went into contract last week, a 22.5% increase week-over-week. Despite the ongoing low-inventory environment, weekly contract signing activity is now at or exceeding last year’s levels, making it the most encouraging metric to report so far as we head into the early spring sales market.
