Based on a Manhattan-based Massey Knakal Realty Services' Third Quarter 2011 Property Sales Report for the entire New York City area (Manhattan, Northern Manhattan/Bronx, Brooklyn, and Queens), during the first three quarters of 2011 (1-3Q11) there was $19.1B in NYC property sales, a 111% increase from 1-3Q10.

This represents an 80% increase over 2010 on an annualized basis. Thus far, there have been 1,548 properties sold, representing an annualized turnover of 1.25%.

The Brooklyn market has outpaced all markets with 529 property sales through 1-3Q11, or 34% of total properties sold. Manhattan leads all markets in terms of dollar volume with $16.7B of sales or 87% of the $19.1B sold citywide.

"Conditions in New York City's investment sales market continue to steadily improve. While the 3rd quarter dollar volume of $6.5 billion dipped below 2nd quarter figures, it was still the best quarter, with the exception of the 2nd quarter, since 2008," said Massey Knakal Chairman and Founding Partner Robert A. Knakal. "The number of properties sold increased to 548, the best quarterly total since 4th quarter 2008. We expect the number of properties sold to continue to increase as, notwithstanding recent activity, we still remain well below the long-term trend," added Knakal.
