Shortage of 'Unaffordable Housing' in NYC

By Bahar Tavakolian | April 8, 2013 10:57 AM ET

Market reports released last week for the first quarter of 2013 in New York were nothing short of impressive. There is record low inventory and high demand. There are buyers out there looking for that perfect New York home and fewer sellers. This has held true for all market segments, from the trophy properties to the more modest ones.

Not long ago I could not have imagined that it would be a challenge to find qualified buyers their New York dream pad. But in these past couple of months, it certainly has been. We have what my esteemed colleague Kirk Henckels calls "a shortage of unaffordable housing."

Once again we have a resurgence of competitive bidding for intelligently-priced quality properties, as buyers who qualify for a home mortgage want to take advantage of the record-low interest rates. Inventory is down 16.9 percent from a year ago and quality homes are selling rapidly and for compelling prices.
