Around Brooklyn: Brooklyn sees huge increase in rents
Brooklyn sees huge increase in rents
Brooklyn saw its largest year-over-year increase in residential rents since 2013, according to the StreetEasy Brooklyn Rent Increase. Rents in the borough went up 5.5 percent to $2,745. Brooklyn’s rent growth was led by Williamsburg and Greenpoint, collectively classified as North Brooklyn in the report. North Brooklyn is now the fourth-most expensive sub-market in New York City behind only Downtown Manhattan, the Upper West Side and Midtown Manhattan. The surge in Brooklyn rents has the borough closing in on Manhattan prices, says the study.
