Square footage is recorded for only 2 of these 3 sales (67%), 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. ### How these sales were negotiated - **Sale-to-list price**: 94.6% (3 sales) - **Sold below asking**: 100% (3 sales) - **Typical time to find a buyer**: 166 days (3 sales) - **Typical time to close**: 72 days (3 sales) Based on two-bedroom sales at 249 West 29th Street 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, co-op two-bedroom sales in Chelsea | Year | Median sold price | Sales | | --- | --- | --- | | 2017 | $1,495,000 | 27 | | 2018 | $1,470,000 | 21 | | 2019 | $1,497,500 | 22 | | 2020 | $1,600,000 | 17 | | 2021 | $1,400,000 | 35 | | 2022 | $1,600,000 | 44 | | 2023 | $1,135,000 | 25 | | 2024 | $1,453,772 | 24 | | 2025 | $1,500,000 | 29 | | 2026 YTD | $1,695,000 | 18 | Based on recorded co-op two-bedroom sales in Chelsea. 2026 is year-to-date.
