Lower housing prices have people now scrambling to buy in the city, and home inspector Jacqueline Gathers is taking advantage of the trend. A report by Douglas Elliman Real Estate brokerage released in April showed that Manhattan home-buying increased 2.1% in the first quarter of 2021 from the same time last year.
