In the latest installment of the Trulia Trends report (PDF), Texas newcomers Houston and Austin came in at spots nine and ten on the list of America’s hottest cities, bumping Orlando, FL and Queens, NY out of the top 10. At the top of the list, Manhattan nudged Chicago out of its one month reign in the #1 spot.
The top ten homes viewed on Trulia this month were all from coastal states, ranging from this $285,000 two bedroom apartment on Madison Avenue in East Harlem to this three floor penthouse bordering Central Park with 360-degree views of Manhattan for 256x that amount at $70 million.
- The biggest steals this month were found in a location not known for its affordable housing prices – The Big Apple. For less than $300,000, home buyers can purchase this studio, just steps away from Carnegie Hall or this two bedroom in East Harlem.
- This three bedroom 1914 model home in Glen Rock, NJ has the lowest price per bedroom ratio with each bedroom costing roughly $253,000. The highest price per bedroom ratio goes to this 5th Avenue penthouse with a price per bedroom ratio of $14 million each.
- The dreamers were out in force this month, with three homes priced higher than $50 million on the list. Two of those were in the City by the Bay, including this $55 million hilltop mansion with views of the Golden Gate Bridge and Bay from almost every room and this $65 million “Gold Coast Masterpiece in the making” priced at $3,154 per square foot.
