The NYC Real Estate Climate and Its Developments


You may know how the NYC market work, which by the way is the largest and most vibrant one in America, but the question is whether you’re familiar with the housing construction in other parts of the United States. Real estate founder and CEO Adam Hochfelder took this matter into his own hands and investigated whether there has been a reversal in other cities, or was this exclusive to NYC.

Overall, almost everything that burdened the housing stock in NYC was sold, which created a feeling that there are a lot of unsold apartments, highlights Hochfelder, an honoree at the Chamber of Commerce.

- If I say that today there are thousands of them, I would reveal too much, added Hochfelder.

Therefore to him, it wasn’t a surprise at all that in the last year, at a certain point there were 1,400 new apartments build, and changes in the tax laws contributed to the increased sales. According to this renewed real estate expert, this year is rather surprising mainly because of the apartment hunts, and the building of new ones, explaining that in NYC there hasn’t been any new construction for a quite some time.

- Of course, there were some sporadic building constructions, Hochfelder recalls, adding that it has been almost three years of his company's expansion and about ten years since the housing bubble. New housing is mostly sought by those who are single or have just started a family. As their first property, they bought mainly smaller apartments, but now they need bigger ones. The market is closely related to the climate in the society, which now he evaluates as positive. There was also a GDP rise, which made the banks more stable.

- Every New Yorker wants an apartment in NYC. So those that are able to afford one, usually buy an apartment, and once they no longer need it they put it up for a lease, not for sale. Rentals make up five percent of the annual income, and the savings have a 0.5 percent interest rate. Furthermore, in ten years the value of a real estate will surely be increased - explained Adam Hochfelder in his post for Realty Times. This is one of the main reasons for buying a residential property in NYC, even if you end up living in another place. The housing market is one of the best indicators of positive developments.

The After Effects of Real Property Acquisition and Development

The typical acquisition is a fairly short process, where normally the parties involved walk away after closing. But sometimes the effects of an acquisition stay longer and linger on the buyer. After a deal has been made, the buyer owns the property and has to live with its flaws, while the seller can have some exposure to liability for non-disclosure, environmental contamination, etc. Satisfying the parties’ reasonable expectations in these areas is a major part of the negotiation that purchase agreements include. During the past couple of years, the general outlook on real estate acquisitions has shifted from a traditional point of view. Due to that, more and more often, we see potential buyers seeking guidance from real estate experts. Adam Hochfelder currently serves as the Consultant of Real Estate Acquisitions & Development at Merchants Hospitality, but prior to that, he was one of America’s most famous real estate executives. Now he uses his industry knowledge and experie...

Real Estate Taxes in New York

In the last three years in New York State, almost three billion dollars were collected from real estate taxes. So, in 2015, were collected 828.6 million dollars, which means 13 percent less than in 2014, when from real estate taxes 950.7 million dollars were collected. Also, that is 27 percent less than in 2013, when 1.13 billion dollars were collected. These data were the basic reason for Adam Hochfelder to reduce the taxes on real estates. Helen Keit - a licensed real estate broker, says that reducing the taxes by 2 percent will considerably increase the turnover. Mr. Hochfelder explains that it is the total amount of money collected on taxes, including sale and purchase, inheritance, maintenance and all other types of real estate turnover. Known as the "Wharton Whiz Kid" for his fast rise to fame, Adam Hochfelder has the ability to leverage exclusive deals, fearlessness towards risk and endless ambition. All this helped him generate multimillion-dollar deals as well...

Hochfelder recommends that you research before you invest

Real estate is a business and like any other, it also requires that you plan, analyze, negotiate and manage. If it’s not producing a profit, your business won’t stay in business for very long. Adam Hochfelder has been in the real estate industry for over three decades. As he explains, this business demands a certain level of commitment. But unlike many other businesses, real estate allows you to control your working hours and set your own schedule. The important thing is to set the goals that you want to achieve, and then work to make that happen. Setting clear and specific investment goals will pave the way toward becoming financially independent. In real estate, objectivity is very important. As human beings, we have the tendency to either like or dislike a certain property. But if you are in the investment business this can be a big financial mistake. That’s why objectivity is the key to success as an investor. Knowledge is the other tool that can save you from sure failure. ...
