Prices are the figures recorded with the City, not asking prices. | Unit | Beds | Sq Ft | Sold Price | $/ft² | Sold | Source | | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | | 3-C (Apartment) | 2 | 825 | $800,000 | $970/ft² | February 9, 2024 | City record · MLS | | 22 (Apartment) | 2 | 1,744 | $2,185,000 | $1,253/ft² | June 29, 2023 | City record · MLS | | 5-D (Apartment) | 1 | 789 | $850,000 | $1,077/ft² | October 28, 2021 | City record · MLS | | 8-B (Apartment) | 1 | 656 | $750,000 | $1,143/ft² | October 1, 2021 | City record · MLS | | 6A (Apartment) | 1 | 538 | $560,000 | $1,041/ft² | September 30, 2021 | City record | | 18B (Apartment) | 2 | 1,075 | $1,222,000 | $1,137/ft² | September 17, 2021 | City record · MLS | 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 The Bentley is $750,000, based on 3 sales between September 2021 and October 2021. This home is asking $899,000, $149,000 above that median. The middle half of those sales closed between $655,000 and $800,000. - **Median closed price**: $750,000 - **Middle half**: $655,000 – $800,000 - **Based on**: 3 one-bedroom sales at The Bentley - **Period**: September 2021 – October 2021 - **Median $/ft²**: $1,077/ft² ### Price trend Median sold price for condo and house one-bedroom sales in Kips Bay, 2017 to 2026. The series is held to one bedroom count and one ownership type for the same reason: an unfiltered median tracks which apartments sold, not what they were worth. | Year | Median sold price | Sales | | --- | --- | --- | | 2017 | $876,000 | 19 | | 2018 | $885,000 | 11 | | 2021 | $850,000 | 32 | | 2022 | $1,330,750 | 50 | | 2023 | $1,307,018 | 40 | | 2024 | $975,000 | 19 | | 2025 | $1,250,000 | 45 | | 2026 | $1,150,000 | 19 | This building does not have enough sales with a recorded floor area to chart its own price per square foot, which is usual for a co-op. The series above follows comparable homes across Kips Bay instead. 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.

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. Where an abatement applies, Property Tax is the amount owed after it. Abatements are granted to the property and do not necessarily transfer to a new owner. Figures are the New York City Department of Finance assessment roll for tax lot 1008861120. 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.
