RYE BROOK—The luxury real estate market across New York and Connecticut remained active in the third quarter with continued buyer demand and strong results across several key markets, according to the Houlihan Lawrence Q3 2026 Luxury Market Report.
In New York, the luxury market showed particularly strong momentum. Westchester County, at the $2 million-and-above level, recorded increases in both home sales and prices. Homes moved quickly, with average days on market continuing to decline. In Putnam and Dutchess Counties, prices continued to increase in the $1 million-and-above market, although transaction activity declined and days on market edged slightly higher.
