Market Snapshot

Q3 is in the books, and we are now entering the last quarter/leg of the year. This last quarter will tell us a lot about what the local housing market will look like next year so it’s important to analyze the Q3 numbers and draw our best conclusions as to what we can expect moving forward. That said, Q3 continued the patterns that we’ve been seeing all year, less sales, higher prices, growing inventory, and continually elevated mortgage rates. Here’s a breakdown of the most recent quarter.

Home sales were down 11.2% quarter over quarter and 8.3% year over year. As for home prices, they continued to climb, rising 7% quarter over quarter and 10.5% year over year. As for new listings, Q3 brought in a total of 636 new residential listings to the market (on OneKey MLS). That’s down 9.1% quarter over quarter but up 6% year over year. Active listings on the other hand were down 6.8% quarter over quarter and 1.1% year over year.

Lastly, when it comes to mortgage rates, they have seen a slow and steady decline through the first 9 months of the year. For example, in early January rates for a 30 year fixed rate mortgage were about 7.1%, and right now they are hovering around 6.3%. With multiple rate cuts projected rate in 2026, we are anticipating that mortgage rates will continue a slow and steady decline over the next quarter and year. In the industry, many agents feel that once rates reach the low-mid 5’s, then a lot of demand will be unlocked.

We’ll continue to watch the market and keep you posted on any new developments.

Month’s Supply

What is Month’s Supply? Months of supply is the measure of how many months it would take for the current inventory of homes on the market to sell, given the current pace of home sales. For example, if there are 50 homes on the market and 10 homes selling each month, there is a 5 month supply of homes for sale.

Months of supply is a good indicator of whether a particular real estate market is favoring buyers or sellers. Typically, a market that favors sellers has less than 6 months of supply, while more than 6 months of supply indicates an excess of homes for sale that favors buyers.

Median Home Price

As for Home Prices, the One Key MLS reported a median home price in Brooklyn of $839,000. This is UP 7% from the previous quarter and UP 10.5% compared to the same quarter last year.

Mortgage Rates

Mortgage Rates Lowest Since Fed Day

Mortgage rates saw their biggest day-over-day decline of the past several weeks today in response to unexpected news regarding additional tariffs on China. Trump had previously been scheduled to meet with China’s President Xi in 2 weeks, but  today said there was no reason to do so and that the administration is currently calculating a massive increase in Chinese tariffs. 

Stocks and bonds immediately responded with the former moving lower and bonds rallying.  When bonds rally, interest rates move lower, all else equal. Mortgage lenders use mortgage-backed securities (MBS) to determine what rates they can offer.  When bonds move enough during the course of a day, mortgage lenders can reissue higher/lower mortgage rates.  Today’s big mid-day rally is resulting in fairly widespread improvements.

The net effect is an average 30yr fixed rate that is now as low as it’s been since the September 17th Fed meeting. For context, today’s rates are only a hair lower than October 3rd. (view article)
