## Property Overview

Located on a beautiful, tree-lined block in prime East Flatbush, 160 East 31st Street is a two-family brick home offering scale, flexibility, and strong long-term upside in one of Brooklyn's most established residential neighborhoods. With classic curb appeal and solid construction, this property presents a compelling opportunity for buyers looking to renovate and create significant value.

 Spanning approximately 2,400 square feet, the house features five bedrooms and two-and-a-half bathrooms across two units. The upper duplex is thoughtfully laid out with four bedrooms and one-and-a-half bathrooms and enjoys direct access to a lovely backyard, ideal for entertaining, gardening, or everyday outdoor living. While the home would benefit from a full renovation, the space offers great natural light, generous room sizes, and a layout that can be reimagined into a modern, high-end residence.

 The lower unit is a one-bedroom, one-bathroom apartment, well suited for rental income, extended family use, or a private workspace. With the proper updates, this unit can further enhance the overall income potential or functionality of the property.

 The home is ideally positioned near the 2 and 5 subway lines at Newkirk Avenue-Little Haiti station and the B and Q lines at Church Avenue station, providing convenient access throughout Brooklyn and into Manhattan. Nearby bus routes include the B8, B44, and B35. Everyday conveniences are close by, including Key Food, Associated Supermarkets, and ShopRite, along with a variety of neighborhood restaurants, coffee shops, and local services. Nearby parks add to the neighborhood's appeal and overall livability.

 With strong bones, a flexible layout, and a prime location, 160 East 31st Street is ideal for buyers ready to take on a full renovation project and unlock its true potential as a customized home or high-performing investment in the heart of East Flatbush.

## Sales Evidence

### How this price compares

The median closed price for comparable house sales in Flatbush is $1,024,500, based on 8 sales between December 2021 and June 2026. This home is asking $750,000, $274,500 below that median. The middle half of those sales closed between $930,000 and $1,283,750.

- **Median closed price**: $1,024,500
- **Middle half**: $930,000 – $1,283,750
- **Based on**: 8 house sales in Flatbush
- **Period**: December 2021 – June 2026
- **Median $/ft²**: $506/ft²

Across the 5 of these sales with a published asking price, the median closed at 100.7% of what it originally asked. 0% 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 Flatbush. Apartment sales are excluded from it entirely.

### How these sales were negotiated

- **Sold vs original ask**: 100.7% of the original ask
- **Closed below ask**: 0% of 5 sales
- **Listed → in contract**: 24 days (about 3 weeks)
- **In contract → closed**: 66 days (about 9 weeks)

Across the 5 of these sales with a published asking price, the median closed at 100.7% of what it originally asked. 0% of them closed below the original ask.

Half of these homes were in contract within 24 days (about 3 weeks) of coming to market, based on the 7 with a recorded listing date.

Once a deal was agreed, closing took a further 66 days (about 9 weeks), based on the 6 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 8 house sales in Flatbush, December 2021 – June 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 City has not published the official FY2026/27 and FY2025/26 tax rates yet. We calculated the tax for those years using the prior year’s rate, so treat them as an estimate rather than a figure the City has adopted. Every rate without the Estimated marker is the published one.

Tax Assessment is the assessed value on the City’s roll, and it is the figure other listing sites publish. It is not what the bill is calculated on. New York phases assessment changes in gradually for some tax classes, so the City bills the Billable Value shown beside it, less any exemption the owner holds. It usually trails the assessment, and it can sit above it for a few years after an assessment falls.

Figures are the New York City Department of Finance assessment roll for tax lot 3049150009. Assessed and billable values are determined by the City for tax purposes and are not an appraisal or an estimate of market value. Tax classes and rates are set annually and can change.
