Amid the narrative of New York City residents leaving during the pandemic, a hidden trend emerges — out-of-state buyers investing in Manhattan real estate. Analyzing residential sales over the past two years, excluding purchases through shell companies, reveals a dynamic market.
- New Jersey residents led the pack, investing $1.48 billion in over 1,400 deals, comprising over 20% of the total sample volume.
- California followed closely, contributing $1.25 billion across 900 deals, with San Francisco buyers accounting for over 15% of that spending.
- Florida saw significant investment, with Floridians spending nearly $788 million on 651 homes.
And where are they buying?
- Upper West Side emerged as the hotspot for out-of-state buyers, with almost $592 million spent on 384 homes.
- Lenox Hill was second with almost $512 million in volume across 278 deals.
- Lincoln Square followed with nearly $481 million over 306 purchases.
