“You do a search online, you have $10 million to spend, you can’t find anything. That’s the reality,” he said.

In addition to numerous foreign buyers, wealthy domestic buyers are some of the most active folks in the New York housing market, he said. Many, he told Liu, are just buying homes as an investment.

“They know the market is going to go up, and it’s a really great, safe place to put your money compared to the volatile stock exchange,” Eklund said.
