A seller’s market on Long Island
The area offers Cape Cod and ranch-style homes with yards on streets shaded by mature trees. Prices typically range from around $550,000 to $1.1 million. Markets all over Long Island continue to experience low inventory and high demand, and South Valley Stream is no different. “Sellers are still getting a good amount of money for their homes, and there are definitely buyers out there,” Cherubin says. Pricing is key, she adds, noting that a home that’s priced right will find a buyer quickly. Renovated, move-in-ready residences with gleaming kitchens and bathrooms may even spark a bidding war and sell for over the asking price.
Many homes in South Valley Stream have spacious front and back yards.
Contemporary Modern Style homes usually have manicured lawns.
