Recent listing and pending timelines show why buyers should question pace before reacting to price.
If you are close to making an offer in Forest Hills, NY but still unsure whether the timing feels right, I would look harder at listing history before I looked at anything else. The recent timelines are mixed enough that buyers should not assume every property needs a fast decision.
Over the last 3 months, new multifamily listings in Forest Hills, NY spent a typical 70 days on market, while pending listings showed a typical timeline of 143 days. Closed listed sales where timing was reported closed in 20, 51, and 82 days. That range tells me one thing clearly pace depends heavily on the property. I would not let one seller's urgency or one polished listing push you into a decision that ignores the broader timing picture. Some homes are moving faster, but many are taking much longer to secure a commitment. Ask when the property first hit the market and whether pricing changed. Compare its timeline to the recent mix before you decide how aggressive to be. Move quickly only when the facts support it.
