Get a look at luxury at these $10 million-plus Manhattan open houses
CORE Group
When the Republican tax plan is enacted, home prices in Manhattan could drop by nearly 10 percent because of the increased tax burden brought on by limiting the property tax deduction, according to Moody's analysts. The legislation would cap the property tax deduction at $10,000 and eliminate state and local tax deductions. Homeowners will see the biggest impacts, particularly those with higher-priced apartments and houses, because the greater the property tax bill, the more of a hit from the loss of all but a chunk of the deduction.
Still, the titans of industry are likely to benefit from slashed corporate tax rates and other goodies for the very wealthy, and Moody's researchers predict that between rising stock prices and falling property values in high-tax states, the tax plan will be "a wash" for high-income Manhattan homeowners and their similarly situated peers.
With that in mind, plus a curiosity about how the one percent lives, we found five Manhattan properties that are having open houses this weekend, all of them listed for $10 million or more. They're open houses, so theoretically the brokers won't be checking bank balances at the door.
