While the median asking price for a home on the East End ($2,195,000) is up by 4.7 percent compared to the same time last year, the average pale in comparison to the year’s most staggering sales.
“The housing market continues to soften across the country — particularly in some of the most expensive areas like the Hamptons and New York City. With so many homes for sale right now, and listings lingering on the market for longer than in the past, it’s a tough time to be a seller,” Out East GM, Matt Daimler reflected. “But this list of transactions proves that there is still demand for the unique, high-end homes in the Hamptons. If you’re patient, persistent and price your home correctly, the right buyer will come along.”
