Back in 2007 the United States faced a housing crisis. There was a surplus of homes on the market combined with a depressed economy, resulting in activity falling drastically among the real estate market.

We may or may not have learned from our mistakes then, but our political climate in the US is different now. In this video broadcast via Facebook Live, Anthony Licciardello and Hannah Jay discuss the main three reasons that we believe the next housing downturn could happen.

In this discussion, we touch on themes ranging from banking institutions to housing affordability. Here in Staten Island, home affordability has especially become a big problem for new home buyers. This could be an issue for anyone who owns real estate and is looking to

This month's real estate snapshot was telling, and may forecast some big changes in the future.

Active listings were way up in May. At 1,892, this represents a high we have not seen in several years. This would not be so noteworthy if sales were up as well, but closed sales have stayed flat for four months now while active listings continue to rise. Closed sales remain stagnant at just about 300. Obviously, lots of homes listed have continued to go unsold.

It appears (though we'll have to follow this trend in the coming months) that demand may be slipping on the buyer side. Home affordability has really become an issue. Average home sale prices were down about $10,000 to $566,449.

But this is not cause to panic for sellers- we've seen

Opportunity doesn’t come knocking often- don’t let it pass you by! A lot zoned for condo development just hit the market in the most talked about neighborhood in Staten Island: St. George.

This hillside property at 59 Hamilton Avenue features R6 zoning with over 17,400 buildable square feet just three blocks away from the St. George Ferry Terminal to Manhattan. Currently on this land plot is an income-producing Victorian two-family home. This lot could potentially offer greater income for a developer who transforms the property into a mid-rise apartment building with 22-24 units.

 

Why St. George Is The #1 Place To Invest

Just how much do we owe to technology here at RealEstateSINY? Pretty much everything, as it turns out.

Not only was this company founded based on internet marketing, but it's indispensable the real estate market as we know it. 90% of buyers use the internet to find their next home. Can you imagine sorting through a physical MLS book to find a home before you could type keywords into a search field? This was the reality a generation ago, and it seems like ancient history to imagine that now.

In this live video via Facebook broadcast, Hannah Jay interviews Anthony Licciardello about the role technology has played in the creation of our company. We talk about the search tools that take the stress out of home searching, and the tools we use to reach

April marked yet another month for Staten Island real estate prices to hit record highs.

The average home sale price was up to $576,525. But prices are what we call a “trailing indicator”, meaning they reflect the market several months prior to the actual closing date, when the house was first put into acceptance. In this live video discussion, we look to other stats to dissect the market in its current state. 

Even though the market still appears to hold the seller’s favor, with homes selling faster than they have in many months and fetching high prices, there were some strange findings. Inventory is now up to 1,630, with 669 new listings in April. This is considerably higher than the same time last year. 

So when we saw that only 328
