Brooklyn Real Estate Market Outlook

Thinking about buying in Brooklyn? Now could not be a better time, with just 476 residential dwellings it's a highly sought after location. The average property price in this area is in the region of $1,449,000 with prices in this suburb ranging from $540,000 to $3,948,000. Brooklyn is located very near to the coast so expect stunning views of the ocean and access to beaches. Demand is likely to be very strong in this location which will support higher prices

Consistent high demand relative to supply is a key feature in Brooklyn driving regular price increases. Recent rapid price increases however may constrain future growth by limiting demand. In this area of average incomes, there is a mix of housing size and quality. While this may present buying opportunities, growth may be constrained. As buyers begin to examine Brooklyn due to other areas being out of the price range and the trend to working from home, "gentrification" may incease price growth. The slightly lower than average earnings from occupations in Brooklyn changes the housing and lifestyle preference. It is more a matter of what can be afforded rather than what would we prefer, leading to slower price increases over time. Medium density in Brooklyn necessitates a mix of lifestyle options for housing, shops, open areas, and facilties. Where this is available, demand is high and growth ensured. Lower than average industry presence in Brooklyn we believe will be less of a negative impact than it has in the past. Post-COVID and the growth in working from home has lessened the demand for local employment options. This may make Brooklyn a better buying opportunity than it may have been in the past.
