The city saw nearly 4,600 homes hit the market in September, marking a nearly 10% uptick from last season. Buyers, especially in Brooklyn, responded in kind. The real estate portal StreetEasy released its September market report detailing the top 10 city neighborhoods where homes sold above the asking price. Kings County reigned supreme."

Just 'round Prospect Park and Grand Army Plaza, neighboring Park Slope achieved the city's second-highest rate of demand with 44% of its homes selling over the list price. The median sale price in the bistro and stroller-filled district neared $1.4 million."
