Here are the NYC apartments for sale with the deepest price chops in August

Here are the NYC apartments for sale with the deepest price chops in August
After months of steady increases in the number of sellers slashing their listing prices, price chopping in New York City did not fluctuate much in August compared to July, according to a new RealtyHop report.
This comes as some NYC sellers are holding onto their prices and not negotiating very much (one survey found Manhattan sellers were willing to accept on average initial bids that were 5.65 percent below the last asking price or an average of $87,041 off the ask. In Brooklyn, it was much tighter.)
But some sellers really need to sell and are willing to make deals—and then there are the extreme price choppers, who take millions of dollars off their asking prices, as seen in RealtyHop's report.
In August, the Upper West Side had the most price cuts across the city, and a 109 percent increase from August 2019. The neighborhood saw 159 price drops, compared to 76 last August. The neighborhood's biggest price drop in dollars was $2,112,000, or 13 percent, for a two-bedroom condo. Turtle Bay-East Midtown had the second most price cuts, with 148 total.
In its monthly price drop report, RealtyHop identifies neighborhoods with the highest total number of price cuts. It also highlights areas with the biggest percentage drop in median price, and the biggest median dollar price drop.
The top five addresses with the biggest dollar price drops were all in Manhattan. A three-bedroom, three-bath co-op in the Theater District had the highest price drop, with $7,999,999, or 50 percent, slashed from the listing price. The rest of the price drops ranged from $4,000,000 to $2,112,000.
