What's Coming up This Weekend in Long Island Real Estate?

House hunting this weekend? Welcome to the real estate equivalent of speed dating—only it's six figures and someone else can ring the proposal buzzer before you even find a parking space. With spring in high gear, **Long Island's market is busier than a Sunday morning bagel store**. Open houses are booked solid from the Cross Island to Montauk, listings are selling at a rate faster than parking at Trader Joe's, and if you're not ready to pounce, you're just in it for the exercise.

Whether you’re a serious shopper, a casual browser, or a mere seeker of design inspiration and a complimentary cookie, here's your no-nonsense, sarcasm-level-5 guide to what's worth a look at this weekend

New Top Properties Coming to the Market

New listings are bursting forth like your allergy inducers. **Wantagh, Huntington, and Sayville** are unleashing new listings like it's actually Prime Day in the real-estate world. Wantagh's flaunting its move-in condition capes in the high-$600Ks, Huntington's unleashing remodeled colonials under $1M, and Sayville? Ocean-inspired housing for those who desire sea views on a budget, none of that Hamptons pricing, though.

It's effectively a bat signal when a listing comes on the market after Thursday. Make a move by Friday morning—because by Sunday afternoon, only crumbs of the open house cookies will remain.

Open Houses to Hit (and Even Learn From)

Not every open house visit is a romantic one. Some are **learning the game**. If it's not quite time to write the offer but you need to hone your instincts, connect in **Levittown's split-levels, the retro bungalows of Bellmore, and Dix Hills' expanded ranches**. Properties that have sat 15+ days are perhaps too pricey—or perhaps they're misunderstood. That's where the bargains lie.

Undervalued Opportunity Areas to Watch

**Massapequa**, **Bay Shore**, and **Miller Place** are home to the underdogs. Massapequa has some "needs-a-little-love" properties with good bones and potential to grow. Bay Shore retains some pre-flip opportunities (provided you can ignore the 1992 tile), and Miller Place remains Long Island's *quietly magical waterfront bargain*—for the time being, at least.

Want to outsmart the Zillow bots? These are your markets.

Investment Hype: Multi-Family and Rental Potential

This weekend, if you're looking for cash flow, check out **two-families in Hempstead, Patchogue, and Glen Cove**. Rental demand is hotter than on a Friday night at your favorite taco joint. If you're getting financed, don't even think about it unless you're ready to go, as they sell quickly and half the buyers arrive in tow with contractors.

New Home Construction and Quick-Move-In Homes

loathe popcorn ceilings, and beige tiles? **Smithtown, Yaphank, and East Meadow** have a new-construction alternative that resembles your Pinterest page. With a price range of $775K-$1.2M and builder bonuses including stainless steel appliance sets and closing cost assistance, it's a winning bet—but these ready-to-move-in stunners don't linger on the market.

Don't fall for the model home if you don't double-check the lot size. That kitchen island? It's not necessarily included in the standard.

Waterfront and Seasonal Home Monitoring

Want a Sound summer? **Babylon, Southold, and Westhampton peripheries** are launching new waterfront and summer listings this weekend. There's something for everyone—from refurbished cottages priced under $900K to mid-century ranches in need of a glow-up. Great for a summer getaway or passive income fantasy—if you beat the contractors to it.
