market report: Brooklyn Year End Market Report - 02/27/15 09:38 PM
Brooklyn Year End Review
 
Summary
Intense demand in Brooklyn fueled price improvements in all metrics during 2014. Overall average condo and co-op price was 12% higher than a year ago and average price per square foot grew 9%. Overall median price increased 3%, exhibiting slight price growth in the middle of the market.
