2016 MARKET ACTIVITY REPORT
NORTH CENTRAL BROOKLYN OUTPACES THE REST OF THE BOROUGH, DESPITE A SLUGGISH 4TH QUARTERAccording to Cushman & Wakefield Research, Brooklyn YE16 concluded with a total of 1,702 transactions and an aggregate value of $8.2 billion, a 2.4% decrease from 2015. The annual statistics below will highlight activity during 2016, specifically in the North Central Brooklyn submarket, which is comprised of the Bedford-Stuyvesant, Bushwick, Crown Heights, and Prospect Lefferts Gardens neighborhoods.
North Central Brooklyn closed on another seemingly strong year with a total dollar volume of $1.3B and a transaction volume of 390, both within 5% of the record highs, set in 2015. It is worth noting however that the 4th quarter saw a significant decline in both metrics, down 40% in transaction volume and 53% in dollar volume, compared to the first 3 quarters of the year. We are tracking 1Q17 closely to see if the market rebounds or remains consistent with this new pace. As a whole, The North Central Brooklyn submarket in 2016 accounted for 15% of the total dollar volume and 27% of total transaction volume across all of Brooklyn.

2016 MARKET ACTIVITY REPORT
NOTABLE TRENDSDevelopment: Development activity is down 20% in both dollar volume and transaction volume. This is due to a number of factors but most notably the lack of tax abatements. The average price per BSF has increased however from $175 per BSF to $213 per BSF, suggesting that while we are seeing fewer transactions, those transitions are trading at higher sales prices on average. This is likely due to spill over from 2015 and developers transition to more prime pockets while they wait for news on tax abatements.
Walk-Up Multifamily: This product is the majority asset class in North Central Brooklyn. Tracking this activity is important to gage the general health of our submarket. 2016 saw fewer buildings sell in comparison to 2015, but the average price per transaction went up by 25% from $2.2M to $2.9M, a significant increase. This is due to more renovated properties being sold, a result of owners selling properties they recently renovated as opposed to re-financing. A trend we expect to continue.
Mixed-Use: Mixed-use was the only asset class to see an increase in both transaction and dollar volume. This is due to a shift in investor strategy from rent regulated multifamily to free market investing. Retail presents unrestricted upside, so while the pop in value is similar to investing in rent stabilized assets, the speculation on turnover is avoided. We believe this type of investing will draw a variety of new businesses and retailers, increasing the quality of life for residents.

THE JOHNSTON TEAM
Specialized Attention – Our Team Focuses Exclusively on the Sale of Commercial Properties• We don’t allow ourselves to get distracted by other real estate services such as management, residential sales or
retail leasing.
• We primarily focus on multifamily, development, retail, and industrial properties.
• Other teams within Cushman & Wakefield focus exclusively on leasing, financing, and other core service lines, should you need assistance.
Owners Come First – We Only Represent Sellers• Our interest are always aligned with the seller and we remain their advocate throughout the sales cycle. While we
have a good reputation with buyers, we care most about providing the best price and terms for our clients.
• We have the ability to negotiate with many buyers without the conflict of interest our competitors face when representing both buyers and sellers.
• We will actively co-broke with buyer brokers in order to cast the widest net. By hiring us, you are essentially hiring every broker with an interest in your property.
Territory ExpertiseTM – For 10 Years Our Sole Responsibility Has Been Your Neighborhood• Each neighborhood is supported by a single Cushman and Wakefield Capital Markets team that focuses
specifically in that territory. Our team has covered the Bedford-Stuyvesant, Bushwick, Crown Heights, and Prospect Lefferts Gardens territory for the last 10 years.
• We are experts in all real estate matters affiliated with our territory (i.e. most active buyers, recent sales, new developments, zoning changes, new retailers).
• Our deep understanding and appreciation for our territory enables us to better justify to buyers why they should pay the best price for your property.
What has made us unique has also made us successful. As NYC’s #1 Building Sales Firm, we have sold more than three times the properties as our nearest competitor.
