NEW YORK CITY — Silverback Development, a New York City-based developer, has released its plans for a $250 million condominium building in midtown Manhattan. Located at 131 E. 47th St., the 200-unit building will rise 500 feet and will feature 5,000 square feet of ground-floor retail space as well as several landscaping features and sky lounges. Silverback Development is undertaking the project in partnership with Hong Kong-based Hopson Development Holdings. The property is situated four blocks southeast of Rockefeller Center. The developers plan to include a technologically advanced management system, advanced digital security systems and fully integrated home automation. “The market in midtown Manhattan will see continued demand as it is at the epicenter of corporate headquarters, national landmarks, renowned cultural institutions and Michelin-starred eateries,” says Josh Schuster, managing principal at Silverback Development.

The Impact of COVID-19 on the Multifamily Appraisal Industry

by Sarah Daniels June 19, 2020

The spread of COVID-19 is impacting all industries and markets — including the appraisal space. That said, appraisers should avoid making long-term assumptions about the impact the virus will have on real estate values. According to the Appraisal Institute, the current environment is fluid: An important part of any appraisal assignment is an analysis of market conditions. The coronavirus threat may be impacting market conditions. However, in most markets, it is not yet clear to what extent, if any, market conditions are affected. Related, complicating factors include fluctuations in the stock market and changes in mortgage interest rates. Market analysis includes observing market reactions. This analysis becomes more complicated when market participants themselves are facing uncertainty. Appraisal reports should include a discussion of market conditions and should mention the coronavirus outbreak and its possible impact. However, it is not appropriate to include a disclaimer or extraordinary assumption that suggests the appraiser is not taking responsibility for the analysis of market conditions. While it is important that multifamily appraisers do not jump to conclusions and make long-term predictions, we must understand the different ways in which COVID-19 is currently impacting the commercial real estate market. It is also important that we …
