## Property Overview

Welcome to unit 203, a beautiful south-facing 1 BR condo in the highly desired 550 Vanderbilt Ave, one of Brooklyn's finest LEED-certified residential buildings. A 421-a tax abatement through 2043 (currently just $23/month) adds exceptional long-term value or an excellent investment opportunity to a home that's already a rare find.

 The 10' foot ceilings and oversized windows fill the home with soft, filtered light, while wide-plank oak flooring sets a bright tone throughout. The kitchen features custom gray lacquer cabinetry, Carrara marble counters and backsplash, and a fully integrated Miele appliance suite with vented cooktop hood. The spa-like bathroom continues the material palette with Carrara marble tile, a walnut vanity, and Grohe fixtures. A vented washer/dryer, walk-in closet, and central climate control complete the home.

 Amenities include a 24-hour attended lobby with live-in resident manager, a fitness center by The Wright Fit, a resident's lounge with catering kitchen, a library curated by McNally Jackson, a children's playroom, pet wash station, bike storage, private storage, and a landscaped rooftop terrace with gardens and grills. Designed by acclaimed firm COOKFOX, 550 Vanderbilt is known for its light-filled design and thoughtful use of natural materials - including the courtyard below, designed by landscape architect Thomas Balsley, that gives unit 203 its serene outlook.

 Set at the crossroads of five historic Brooklyn neighborhoods, the building is moments from Prospect Park, the Brooklyn Museum, and Barclays Center, with 11 subway lines (B/C/Q/2/3/4/5/G/D/N/R) plus the LIRR close by.

Showing the 40 most recent of 77 recorded sales in this period.

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 one-bedroom sales at 550 Vanderbilt Avenue is $980,000, based on 25 sales between April 2022 and July 2026. This home is asking $998,000, $18,000 above that median. The middle half of those sales closed between $960,000 and $999,550.

- **Median closed price**: $980,000
- **Middle half**: $960,000 – $999,550
- **Based on**: 25 one-bedroom sales at 550 Vanderbilt Avenue
- **Period**: April 2022 – July 2026
- **Median $/ft²**: $1,467/ft²

Across the 7 of these sales with a published asking price, the median closed at 98.2% of what it originally asked. 71% of them closed below the original ask.

### How these sales were negotiated

- **Sold vs original ask**: 98.2% of the original ask
- **Closed below ask**: 71% of 7 sales
- **Listed → in contract**: 56 days (about 8 weeks)
- **In contract → closed**: 76 days (about 11 weeks)

Across the 7 of these sales with a published asking price, the median closed at 98.2% of what it originally asked. 71% of them closed below the original ask.

Half of these homes were in contract within 56 days (about 8 weeks) of coming to market, based on the 15 with a recorded listing date.

Once a deal was agreed, closing took a further 76 days (about 11 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 25 one-bedroom sales at 550 Vanderbilt Avenue, April 2022 – July 2026. Each figure counts only the sales that recorded the dates it needs, which is why the denominators differ.

### Price trend

Median price per square foot for sales at 550 Vanderbilt Avenue, 2017 to 2026. Price per square foot is used rather than sale price so the line follows the market rather than whichever apartments happened to change hands that year.

| Year | Median $/ft² | Sales |
| --- | --- | --- |
| 2017 | $1,337/ft² | 156 |
| 2018 | $1,377/ft² | 54 |
| 2019 | $1,313/ft² | 28 |
| 2020 | $1,278/ft² | 8 |
| 2021 | $1,399/ft² | 15 |
| 2022 | $1,403/ft² | 18 |
| 2023 | $1,509/ft² | 19 |
| 2024 | $1,542/ft² | 10 |
| 2025 | $1,518/ft² | 15 |
| 2026 | $1,592/ft² | 6 |

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.
