Investing in real estate in New York City can be expensive, but nevertheless, an investment if NYC is the city where you see yourself living for the rest of your life. With more than 8.5 million people residing, across the five boroughs, there are plentiful of housing and investment opportunities for those looking to purchase real estate. This monthly report has its focus on the previous transactions made in September, showing the most expensive transactions (commercial transactions excluded), celebrity transactions, and some statistics to go along with it. The data for the report is provided by ACRIS.<\/em><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h5><strong>Some information about ACRIS<\/strong><\/h5>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">With data publicly available by <a href=\"https:\/\/a836-acris.nyc.gov\/CP\/\">ACRIS<\/a> (ACRIS being the Automated City Register Information System) the public can search property records and view documents for Manhattan, Queens, Bronx, and Brooklyn from 1966 to the present.
