Pearl River is one of the largest communities in Rockland County New York and is located within the Town of Orangetown. Most well known as the home of Wyeth and for its close proximity to the New York City metro area, Pearl River offers housing from one bedroom condos up to estate homes and everything in between.

Average Days on Market (Single Family Homes vs Condos)

Pearl River currently has 4 condominiums on the market and they’re seeing a strong increase in the number of days on market during August 2009. Because the statistic pool size is so small it’s hard to gauge exactly why the average days on market for this home type is rising so rapidly. Single family homes are seeing a stable, and lower than other local communities, average days on market of about 70 – 80 days.

Palisades New York Real Estate Report For August 2009

Posted on 11. Sep, 2009 by Joshua Ferris in Blog, Market Reports, Real Estate, Rockland County

Palisades is a tiny hamlet located in the Town of Orangetown New York. It’s one of the closest points in Rockland County to New York City, New Jersey and Westchester County. There are no condominiums in Palisades so our report for August 2009 will focus exclusively on single family home sales in the area.

Average Days on Market

palisadesavgdomaug2009

Due in part to Palisades’ location and home styles the average days on market during August 2009 continued to rise sharply. Though the community is close to some of the most sought after work cities in the tri-state area, the price of Palisades homes makes it nearly impossible for many first time home buyers to purchase in the hamlet.

Median Price in Palisades New York For August 2009

Although the Palisades market appears to be appreciating at a rapid rate it is important to note there are only 12 homes for sale in the area which might skew the statistics for median price slightly.

Nyack New York Real Estate Report For August 2009

Posted on 10. Sep, 2009 by Joshua Ferris in Blog, Market Reports, New York, Real Estate, Rockland County

Nyack is a Village within the Towns of Orangetown and Clarkstown in Rockland County New York. The Village is most well known for its live music at Memorial Park, popular nightlife and the Clermont condominiums which, in some parts, offer panoramic Hudson River views.

The following statistics are for August 2009 and compare single family homes to condominiums in Nyack:

Average Days on Market (Single Family Homes vs Condominiums)

nyackdomaug09

Condominiums in Nyack have seen a major increase in the average days on market with a 30 day increase. Single family homes in the area bared a similar, but less significant bump up of about two weeks. This could be caused by the median price changes as shown below.

Median Price in Nyack For August 2009

nyackmedianpriceaug09

The condominium market continues to hover around the low $400s mark which is most likely the reason for the dramatic increase in average days on market for that home style. There are smaller condominium communities in Nyack but the largest, by far, is The Clermont waterfront condos. The Clermont also commands some of the highest prices in Nyack of any home type.

Single family home prices trended downward by about $30,000 during August 2009 indicating the single family home market for Nyack will continue to see price declines in the foreseeable future.

Nyack New York Home Inventory For August 2009

nyackinventoryaug09

Only a few homes sold in Nyack during August 2009 with both single family and condominium home styles posting a modest sales increase for the final month of the Summer home buying season. Given the higher price of the Nyack market it remains to be seen whether the looming $8,000 first time home buyer tax credit expiration will have an impact on home sales in the area.

The condominium market has been under siege for some time now due to tighter lending standards and the higher average condo price in the Piermont area. Surprisingly Piermont’s single family homes are seeing a strong uptick in the average days on market while condominiums have maintained a relatively consistent average of 126 days on market.
