NEW YORK CITY / Q2 2022 / Market Report

The second quarter has been one of dichotomies. On the one hand, NYC experienced a bumper period for investment sales volume, clocking at $8.5B for the quarter ending June 30. This was driven by a flurry of activity as investors raced to beat the looming expiration of the 421a tax abatement program and also the expectation of rising inflation.
