This building has not had enough comparable sales of its own in the period to support a median, so the benchmark is drawn from Prospect Heights instead. ### How these sales were negotiated - **Sale-to-list price**: 99.8% (9 sales) - **Sold below asking**: 56% (9 sales) - **Typical time to find a buyer**: 51 days (10 sales) - **Typical time to close**: 52 days (10 sales) Based on condo three-bedroom sales in Prospect Heights with the required listing and closing data. Sample sizes vary by metric. 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. ### Price trend Median sale price, condo and house three-bedroom sales in Prospect Heights | Year | Median sold price | Sales | | --- | --- | --- | | 2017 | $2,204,511 | 15 | | 2018 | $2,756,309 | 14 | | 2021 | $2,475,000 | 11 | Based on recorded condo and house three-bedroom sales in Prospect Heights. Sales data through May 2026. 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. ## Price and Property History for 856 WASHINGTON Avenue, Unit PH1 Review the recorded listing activity for 856 WASHINGTON Avenue, Unit PH1, including asking-price changes and prior market dates. - **Latest price change**: Reduced by $245,000, or 6.1%, on January 30, 2026 - **Originally listed**: November 12, 2025 at $3,995,000 | Date | Price | Listing event | | --- | --- | --- | | January 30, 2026 | $3,750,000 | Asking price reduced by $245,000, or 6.1% | | December 21, 2025 | $3,750,000 | Entered contract | | November 12, 2025 | $3,995,000 | Listed for sale by Douglas Elliman Real Estate | ## Potential NYC Second-Home Tax This property may be subject to New York City’s non-primary residence surcharge if it is not used as a qualifying primary residence.
