Prudential Douglas Elliman Releases Manhattan Market Overview 1Q09 Report
Market conditions in Q1 09 confirm what we began to observe at the end of 2008: the credit crunch and national recession have created a new housing market defined by a lower level of prices and sales activity, a first step in improving affordability for many.
