NEW YORK--(BUSINESS WIRE)--TOWN Residential is proud to announce the launch of The TOWN Rental Report, a monthly update which breaks down Manhattan rental data based on apartment size in relation to 12-16 micro-neighborhoods, on a rotating basis, subject to data reliability. TOWN’s goal is to demonstrate current rental asking prices so renters know what to expect in today’s housing market.
In terms of macro-city trends, the report covers market-wide rental prices, as well as the asking rents for doorman and non-doorman apartments. TOWN’s hope is to display the information readers will find most useful during their search for the perfect home. It is also to inform industry insiders, developers and investors.
“In Manhattan there are interesting relationships between what is going on in the sales market and the rental market,” said Damien Parker, TOWN’s Chief Statistician and one of the authors of TOWN’s well-received quarterly Aggregate Report. “We are happy to begin analyzing New York City pricing trends on a hyper-local level.”
The TOWN Rental Report reveals that month over month, there were mild percentage increases in rental prices pertaining to all apartment sizes. In general, doorman apartments commanded greater than 25% pricing premiums over non-doorman apartments. Among the largest sized apartments securing the highest prices downtown, those in Battery Park/Financial District were among the most expensive, as compared to the apartments in Soho/Tribeca. Uptown, contrary to previous trends, The Upper West Side drew higher prices than the Upper East Side.
“We are committed to providing fully comprehensive and transparent data and information that customers, clients, consumers and industry experts can rely on,” said Andrew Heiberger, Founder and CEO of TOWN.
