Bay Head & Mantoloking Real Estate

This month’s newsletter topic is one that we could not have foreseen. We are certainly in new and uncharted territory. Moments like these can be unsettling and even scary. However, it is in these times of uncertainty that we can truly thrive and grow as a society. 

Over the past couple of days, I've been thinking about how NYC surmounted crises in the past and how our resilience can result not only in economic recovery but in growth.

To name a few: 

1. The 2008 Financial Crisis was the biggest economic downturn since the Great Depression. US stocks dropped 56.8% - recovered 68.6% within 12 months and NYC housing prices dramatically increased year over year.

You read the headline, “lowest unemployment rate in 50 years achieved in October 2018.” Not since 1969 has the unemployment rate been this low. Real wages and household incomes are growing at the fastest rate since the early 2000s.  

Meanwhile, existing home sales are slumping—down six of the last seven months on an annualized basis. New home sales are up slightly, but the year-over-year results have bounced up and down like someone on a trampoline. Affordability has decreased significantly. Inventory levels, while increasing in most markets, are still incredibly tight. Mortgage rates have risen to their highest levels in at least ten years. Year-over-year average price increases are softening.

Rome has been an epicenter for art, architecture, culture, and cuisine for nearly 3,000 years. Fittingly known as the “Eternal City,” visitors can walk the same cobble-stoned streets as Julius Caesar and Michelangelo once did.

But while its history is ancient, that doesn’t mean Rome hasn’t kept up with the times. Today, it’s a cosmopolitan metropolis that is home to world-renowned restaurants and five-star hotels. And we’ve got your guide on where to eat, drink, and stay while in the Italian capitol.
