PRUDENTIAL DOUGLAS ELLIMAN REAL ESTATE’S MAGAZINE AND REPORTS ARE THE BEST READ ON THE MARKET
Profile Magazine
PROFILE magazine embodies all the energy, promise, passion, and character of New
York. In each issue, we showcase hundreds of our exclusive listings throughout New
York City, Long Island, the Hamptons, and select properties in other destinations.
Our magazine is unparalleled in the industry. It remains the largest real estate
in-house publication of its kind at well over 100 full-color pages with an annual
circulation of over one million copies. In addition to controlled distribution by
our nearly 70 offices and 4,400 sales professionals, each issue is delivered
to targeted household subscribers of both The New York Times and Newsday, and appears

Trends Analysis
Produced in conjunction with Miller Samuel, a leading independent appraisal firm,
our Manhattan market reports are the benchmark for residential real estate market
information and an essential reference source for the media, financial institutions,
government agencies, researchers and other market professionals.
Manhattan Market Overview: Quarterly
Our quarterly survey of the Manhattan real estate market gives you up-to-the-minute,
proprietary data not available anywhere else. We report on four market segments--co-ops,
condos, luxury properties and lofts. For each of these, we break out statistics
by apartment size and show the average sales price, the price per square foot and
the number of sales for the quarter. The Overview also compares the latest statistics
to those from the previous quarter and the previous year, to give you an idea of
emerging market trends.
Brooklyn Market Overview: Quarterly
Our Brooklyn overview analyzes the overall Brooklyn market as well as by region and property type,
which includes co-ops, condos, 1-3 family homes, new development, re-sales and luxury housing.
Comparisons against prior quarters and between years capture the immediate and historical trends
in this market.
Long Island and The Hamptons
Market Overviews
Our market reports for Long Island and Queens and for The Hamptons
and North Fork are each produced quarterly as an in-depth analysis of those two
markets. Comparisons against prior quarters and between years capture the immediate
and historical trends in those markets.
Retail Report
Our professional retail group evaluates the trends and highlights the transactions
in each quarter through this valuable resource guide. To keep up to date with this
fast moving market, this report is a must-read.
Manhattan Market Report: A 10-Year
Study
This exclusive survey of Manhattan residential co-operative and condominium sales
analyzes the data from more than 68,000 coops, condos, townhouses and lofts, sold
over a 10-year period. In it, you can see longer-term trends in the Manhattan market
as a whole as well as breakouts by neighborhood, apartment size, average sales price,
price per square foot, and the number of sales per neighborhood.
Manhattan Townhouse Report: A
10-Year Study
The Manhattan Townhouse Report is the city’s most extensive multi-year study
of residential townhouses available to the public. It looks at sales of more than
1,000 townhouses to show the average number of days properties were on the market
and, area by area, gives the number of sales, the average sales price and the price
per square foot, all broken out for one-, two- or three family homes.
Rental Report
This report is a bi-annual analysis of the rental market in Manhattan.

Maximizing Your Home's Potential For Sales
|
|
SIMPLE CHANGES CAN IMPACT HOW QUICKLY
YOUR PROPERTY SELLS AND AT WHAT PRICE
Many cosmetic changes can be made with minimal time and expense. Buyers will be
comparing your property to competing properties. So here are a few practical tips
to help yours stand out above the rest.
Unclutter
Eliminating clutter will make your property feel larger and brighter. If your property
is uncluttered and neutral, prospective buyers can explore it comfortably and envision
it with their own personal touches.
Repair
Making certain repairs will present your property in a more positive light to prospective
buyers, and can also add to its value. If you think something is too much trouble
to fix, chances are buyers will too.
Clean
Presenting a clean home to a buyer shows them the home has been valued and well
cared for.
Curbside Appeal
- Keep the lawn mowed and the steps swept.
- Store hoses neatly; be sure sprinklers don't water walkways.
- Repair gates, fences, sidewalks and driveways.
- Remove or replace dead or dying plants.
- Cut back shrubs obscuring windows.

- Apply fresh paint as needed and replace damaged bricks or wood siding.
