Information and statistics on the latest trends in the Brooklyn real estate market. *
May 2026
Monthly data for the latest available year.
Monthly supply and activity totals for the latest available year.
Market gauge is calculated using active listings and pending sales from the most recently available reporting period (May 2026).
Brooklyn’s housing numbers show modest price growth over the past year alongside a big shift in how long homes sit on the market. Typical home values are up about 2% year over year, while the median list price is nearly flat over the same period. At the same time, median days on market have surged compared with last year, signaling that buyers generally have more time to make decisions.
Conditions in May 2026 point to a clear tilt toward buyers. Months of supply is up to 7.5, nearly double last year’s level, and active listings have risen slightly year over year, widening choices across the borough. Even with more inventory, sellers are still achieving strong pricing, with the average sale-to-list ratio just under 98% and about one in five homes closing above the asking price.
Short‑term trends show activity picking up again after a slower stretch. Pending sales jumped nearly 25% from April to May, even though homes sold fell more than 12% compared with a year ago and new listings declined slightly year over year. Buyers benefit from increased selection and longer marketing times, while sellers face more competition and need sharp pricing to stand out. Whether you are buying or selling in Brooklyn, Agent Pronto can connect you with a local agent who understands these shifting dynamics and can guide your next move.
Brooklyn offers residents a vibrant, diverse blend of neighborhoods, thriving arts and food scenes, plentiful parks and waterfronts, and easy transit that together foster a connected, opportunity-rich community.
Brooklyn offers a distinct sense of identity compared with nearby Manhattan or Queens, blending historic neighborhoods with an ever-evolving creative and culinary scene. From tree-lined streets in Brooklyn Heights overlooking the harbor to art-filled blocks in Bushwick, each area carries its own character and pace.
Residents spend weekends along the waterfront at Brooklyn Bridge Park, in the cultural core around the Brooklyn Museum and Brooklyn Botanic Garden, or exploring boutiques and brownstones in Park Slope and Carroll Gardens. Neighborhoods like Williamsburg and DUMBO appeal to those seeking loft living, restaurants, and easy access to the NYC Ferry.
Subway and bus connections link most of Brooklyn to Downtown Brooklyn and across the river, supporting a strong base of local businesses, schools, and community institutions. Housing options range from historic brownstones and co-ops to new condos and rentals, with prices and competition varying significantly by neighborhood and building type.
Because the market can shift quickly between multiple-offer situations and quieter periods, timing and preparation are critical. Whether you are planning to buy into a favorite block or sell a long-held property, Agent Pronto can connect you with a Brooklyn real estate agent who understands these nuances and can help you move at the right moment.
