The Private Brokerage Advantage
As an independent luxury buyer representative, Régis shares 50% of the buyer-side commission he actually receives on your purchase. Eligible buyers receive that Buyer Commission Share directly at closing to offset closing costs, down payments, or renovations. The figures beside this are illustrative, based on a 3% buyer-broker commission; your share follows the commission offered on the transaction.

Square footage is recorded for only 11 of these 24 sales (46%), so no price per square foot is shown for this group. Co-op sales rarely carry a floor area, and a figure drawn from a handful of them would not describe the rest.
Across the 22 of these sales with a published asking price, the median closed at 100% of what it originally asked. 46% of them closed below the original ask.
This building has not had enough comparable sales of its own in the period to support a median, so the benchmark is drawn from Brooklyn Heights instead.

- 100% of the original ask

Across the 22 of these sales with a published asking price, the median closed at 100% of what it originally asked. 46% of them closed below the original ask.
Half of these homes were in contract within 54 days (about 8 weeks) of coming to market, based on the 23 with a recorded listing date.
Once a deal was agreed, closing took a further 93 days (about 13 weeks), based on the 23 with both dates recorded. A co-op board package and its interview account for much of that.
These are two separate periods measured on different clocks — time to find a buyer, and time from agreed deal to closing. They are medians of different sets of sales and do not add together into a single "days on market" figure.
Based on 24 co-op two-bedroom sales in Brooklyn Heights, October 2024 – July 2026. Each figure counts only the sales that recorded the dates it needs, which is why the denominators differ.
Price trend
Median sold price for co-op two-bedroom sales in Brooklyn Heights, 2017 to 2025. The series is held to one bedroom count and one ownership type for the same reason: an unfiltered median tracks which apartments sold, not what they were worth.

|---|---|---|
| 2017 | $1,215,000 | 22 |
| 2018 | $1,089,080 | 18 |
| 2019 | $1,220,000 | 17 |

This building does not have enough sales with a recorded floor area to chart its own price per square foot, which is usual for a co-op. The series above follows comparable homes across Brooklyn Heights instead.
Sale prices are the consideration recorded with the City in ACRIS, and each sale is dated by the day the City recorded it. A closing date reported to the MLS typically falls one to two weeks earlier. Recorded sales describe what has already happened and are not an appraisal, a valuation, or an estimate of what this home will sell for.

Location Context
Brooklyn Heights
Overview of Brooklyn Heights
Brooklyn Heights is the original suburb, America's first designated historic district, and arguably the most beautiful neighborhood in New York City. Perched on a bluff overlooking the harbor, it offers unbeatable views of Lower Manhattan and the Statue of Liberty. For buyers seeking Brooklyn Heights real estate, it is the pinnacle of stability, history, and elegance. Living in Brooklyn Heights is serene. The streets are named after fruit (Pineapple, Orange, Cranberry) and lined with pristine pre-Civil War brownstones. As a premier Brooklyn NYC neighborhood, it feels timeless and removed from the city's chaos, yet is only one subway stop away.Real Estate & Housing Market
The market for homes for sale in Brooklyn Heights is blue-chip. Listings range from $10 million+ townhouses to pre-war co-ops with harbor views. It is a retention market; people buy here and stay for decades. Inventory is perpetually low because the entire neighborhood is landmarked, preventing new development. This scarcity protects property values.Lifestyle & Community
The lifestyle in Brooklyn Heights is polished and quiet. Residents walk the Promenade at sunset, dine at Henry Street's bistros, and shop at the Borough Hall Greenmarket. The community is a mix of literary figures, financial professionals, and families who want the best of both worlds: a village atmosphere with Wall Street proximity.Transportation & Accessibility
Brooklyn Heights is a transit paradise. The Borough Hall hub offers access to the 2, 3, 4, 5, and R trains. The A/C stops at High Street. The NYC Ferry at Brooklyn Bridge Park provides a scenic commute, though many residents simply walk across the Brooklyn Bridge to work in the Financial District.Parks, Schools & Amenities
The Brooklyn Heights Promenade is iconic, but Brooklyn Bridge Park below offers active recreation (soccer, basketball, roller skating). The neighborhood is home to prestigious private schools like Packer and Saint Ann's. Amenities are refined: bespoke tailors, independent bookstores, and high-end grocers populate Montague and Henry Streets.Who This Neighborhood Is Best For
Brooklyn Heights is best for history lovers, Wall Street commuters, and families seeking a safe, postcard-perfect neighborhood with elite schools.
