There were just seven contracts signed in Brooklyn’s luxury market last week for a total of about $18.3 million.

The properties were split between five condominiums and two townhouses, and they went for an average price of about $2.6 million, according to the latest report from Stribling & Associates. The firm defines the borough’s luxury market as all homes priced at $2 million or higher.

Both numbers were down from the week before, when the market saw 13 contracts signed for about $37 million overall.
