Before you visit the sales gallery, understand the broker registration rule. In many buildings the sponsor will only compensate a buyer’s broker who accompanied you on your first visit or registered you in writing beforehand. The sales team you meet at the door works for the developer, and once you have toured on your own that introduction is very hard to undo.

Prices are the figures recorded with the City, not asking prices. | Unit | Beds | Sq Ft | Sold Price | $/ft² | Sold | Source | | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | | 2 (Apartment) | 3 | 1,282 | $1,225,000 | $956/ft² | May 20, 2026 | City record | Every row is a recorded transaction, including ancillary spaces such as storage and staff rooms where they were sold separately. Those are excluded from the benchmark below. ### How this price compares The median closed price for comparable house sales in Fort Greene is $4,200,000, based on 13 sales between July 2022 and August 2026. This home is asking $1,250,000, $2,950,000 below that median. The middle half of those sales closed between $3,050,000 and $5,600,000. - **Median closed price**: $4,200,000 - **Middle half**: $3,050,000 – $5,600,000 - **Based on**: 13 house sales in Fort Greene - **Period**: July 2022 – August 2026 - **Median $/ft²**: $1,289/ft² Across the 8 of these sales with a published asking price, the median closed at 101.9% of what it originally asked. 38% of them closed below the original ask. A house is not part of a building of comparable apartments, so this benchmark is drawn from house sales across Fort Greene. Apartment sales are excluded from it entirely. ### How these sales were negotiated - **Sold vs original ask**: 101.9% of the original ask - **Closed below ask**: 38% of 8 sales - **Listed → in contract**: 30 days (about 4 weeks) - **In contract → closed**: 66 days (about 9 weeks) Across the 8 of these sales with a published asking price, the median closed at 101.9% of what it originally asked. 38% of them closed below the original ask. Half of these homes were in contract within 30 days (about 4 weeks) of coming to market, based on the 13 with a recorded listing date. Once a deal was agreed, closing took a further 66 days (about 9 weeks), based on the 13 with both dates recorded. 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 13 house sales in Fort Greene, July 2022 – August 2026. Each figure counts only the sales that recorded the dates it needs, which is why the denominators differ. 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.

The New York City and New York State transfer taxes are the seller’s in a resale and are passed to the purchaser in most offering plans, and the sponsor’s attorney fee and any working capital contribution sit on top of that. Together they commonly add 2% or more of the purchase price. - [Estimate these costs](https://realestaterebatesnewyork.com/calculators/new-development-closing-cost-calculator) - [What sponsor buyers pay](https://realestaterebatesnewyork.com/new-development-closing-costs-nyc) - [More new developments](https://realestaterebatesnewyork.com/new-developments) ## Fort Greene Overview of Fort Greene [Explore Fort Greene](https://realestaterebatesnewyork.com/neighborhoods/new-york-city/brooklyn/fort-greene) · [All Neighborhoods](https://realestaterebatesnewyork.com/neighborhoods) ### Nearby Fort Greene - [Clinton Hill real estate for sale](https://realestaterebatesnewyork.com/neighborhoods/new-york-city/brooklyn/clinton-hill) - [Boerum Hill real estate for sale](https://realestaterebatesnewyork.com/neighborhoods/new-york-city/brooklyn/boerum-hill) - [Downtown Brooklyn real estate for sale](https://realestaterebatesnewyork.com/neighborhoods/new-york-city/brooklyn/downtown-brooklyn) - [Navy Yard real estate for sale](https://realestaterebatesnewyork.com/neighborhoods/new-york-city/brooklyn/navy-yard) - [Vinegar Hill real estate for sale](https://realestaterebatesnewyork.com/neighborhoods/new-york-city/brooklyn/vinegar-hill) - [Prospect Heights real estate for sale](https://realestaterebatesnewyork.com/neighborhoods/new-york-city/brooklyn/prospect-heights) ## Related Links - [246 Cumberland Street — building page](https://realestaterebatesnewyork.com/buildings/new-york-city/brooklyn/246-cumberland-street) - [Fort Greene neighborhood guide](https://realestaterebatesnewyork.com/neighborhoods/new-york-city/brooklyn/fort-greene) - [Estimate your Buyer Commission Share and closing costs](https://realestaterebatesnewyork.com/calculators/buyer-closing-cost-calculator) - [Contact Régis Roumila](https://realestaterebatesnewyork.com/contact) --- > RLS IDX Data display by Real Estate Rebate Team.
