Jul. 10, 2008

Categorized in: what makes a loft a "loft"

Manhattan loft inventory / setting a base line of 745

May. 19, 2008

Categorized in: Market Data - reports

Tagged with: data, inventory, olr

My first useful report about the number of Manhattan lofts offered for sale establishes a base line of 745, with more than one-third from $1 to $2 million and about 70% under $3 million.
