Brooklyn Apartment Listings

For the first time in nearly two years, overall Brooklyn apartment inventory dipped year-over-year. Inventory decreased 1%

from last year to 2,545 listings, but the decline was fueled solely by the dip in co-op listings, as condo inventory was up year-

over-year. There were also fewer new listings overall in the market, which were down 13% from a year ago.
