Because Brighton mixes housing types with retail and other commercial space by design, a buyer here is often weighing a new-build unit against a nearby resale option, since the neighbourhood is still adding both kinds of inventory at once.
Sellers in Brighton are usually competing against a builder's own inventory as well as other resale listings, which is a different pricing dynamic than in an older, fully built-out neighbourhood with no new construction to compete against.
