Bidding wars for Long Island homes are so brutal, even all-cash buyers are getting burned

Frank DiMaio had the cash, a signed contract and $230,000 sitting in escrow. He still lost the house he wanted to buy. The orthopedic surgeon, who recently hung up his scalpel after four decades, spent much of this year trying to swap the Old Brookville estate he and his wife have called home for about 25 years for something smaller on Long Island’s North Shore. Instead, the couple got a front-row seat to the most cutthroat housing scrum in the country. “I’ve never experienced anything like this,” DiMaio told The Post. Long Island has become the hardest place in America to buy a home, with Redfin repeatedly ranking Nassau and Suffolk counties as the nation’s strongest seller’s market even as most big metros tilt toward buyers. Bloomberg via Getty Images He’s got plenty of company. Redfin has crowned Nassau and Suffolk counties the strongest seller’s market in America again and again, most recently clocking roughly 36% fewer sellers than buyers. Across most of the country, the pendulum has swung the other way, with 39 of the nation’s 50 biggest metros now favoring house hunters. On Long Island , nobody seems to have gotten the memo. The DiMaios thought they’d scored

Arlington volleyball sweep Monroe-Woodbury, punch ticket to regionals

CROSS RIVER - It's been a week to remember for Arlington volleyball. On Saturday, the Admirals broke a drought for the program, winning the school's first Section 1 Class AAA championship in 15 years in dramatic fashion. Arlington avenged early-season losses to John Jay with a thrilling four-set victory to capture the sectional crown. Just four days later, the Admirals were back on the court. The results were the same in the end, just a little less stressful this time. Controlling momentum from the opening serve, Arlington grabbed a convincing three-set sweep over Section 9's Monroe-Woodbury in the New York State Class AAA subregional at John Jay-Cross River on Wednesday afternoon. It's been a dream week inside of a dream season for the Admirals, who are making sure to cherish the moments and achievements along the way. "It means the world to me. These girls are my best friends, I say it all the time," senior Amelia Giorgi said after the game when asked about the emotions of the past two victories. "Our team, we love each other so much and it shows on the court." On Wednesday, there was a slight sweat for Arlington in the second set with

Beacon's bid for Section 9 football title falls short in championship loss

CENTRAL VALLEY - The 2026 has been a season to remember for Beacon football . Cruising through the regular season and playoffs with a lethal, multi-faceted offense, most nights the Bulldogs stepped onto the gridiron, a must-see show was to follow. Overall, the sentiment of a fantastic season still remains. In the current moment, Saturday was probably a day the program wanted to forget. Going up against powerhouse Port Jervis in the Section 9 Class B Championship at Monroe-Woodbury High School, Beacon's bid for the school's first ever Section 9 title ended in heartbreak with a disappointing 42-13 loss to the Raiders. "They set the standard for Beacon football moving forward," head coach Gerald Ryan appreciatively said of what this team accomplished. "We changed things in the last three years and it's been great with this great set of kids." The loss stings for everyone associated with the Beacon (9-2) program and in the community. After the two teams played to a competitive result earlier in the season, it was expected to be a back-and-forth thriller in the title game. The ball just didn't bounce in the Bulldogs favor.

Bull Hill (Mount Taurus) Hike in Cold Spring: An Easy Quarry Trail and a Fall Walking Meditation in the Hudson Valley

Bull Hill rises directly above the village of Cold Spring, and every weekend the Metro-North platform below it fills with people carrying backpacks, trail snacks and the bright expression of New Yorkers who have decided that today they are outdoorsy. Most of them are headed for the summit of Mount Taurus, the mountain’s other name and its more glamorous one. I came for the first half mile. On a clear November afternoon I walked the Washburn Trail up to the abandoned quarry at the foot of the mountain, a small and easy Hudson Valley hike that delivers a golden meadow, a wall of ancient rock and enough stillness to rearrange an entire week.

Scissors That Cut the Cost of Living

A pair of scissors, a comb and a few minutes in front of the mirror can change someone’s day. Such a simple act of personal care is sometimes postponed when the family budget gets tight. Let It Shine Inc. addresses that reality through free haircut days, which it periodically offers at its location in Verplanck. On Wednesday, Nov. 11, the small pantry at 137 Seventh Street became a hair salon for at least a few hours. The goal went beyond a haircut: it was to lift visitors’ spirits.
