Brooklyn’s luxury market cooled off slightly last week.

Forty-one homes asking $2 million or more went into contract, according to Compass’ weekly report.

The total value of those contracts was $120.7 million, down from the previous week’s $124.8 million. That ended the borough’s five-week streak of rising contract volume, but the combined asking price of those 42 deals was the third-highest the market has seen since March.

The median asking price was $2.95 million, while the average price per square foot was $1,192.

Contracts were signed for 13 condominiums and 28 townhouses. And condo units continued to be more expensive: The median asking price for those properties was $2.98 million, compared to $2.95 million for townhomes.
