Showing the 40 most recent of 59 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 The Vanderbilt is $850,000, based on 3 sales between July 2026 and August 2026. This home is asking $995,000, $145,000 above that median. The middle half of those sales closed between $803,000 and $902,500.

- **Median closed price**: $850,000
- **Middle half**: $803,000 – $902,500
- **Based on**: 3 one-bedroom sales at The Vanderbilt
- **Period**: July 2026 – August 2026
- **Median $/ft²**: $1,240/ft²

Across the 3 of these sales with a published asking price, the median closed at 97% of what it originally asked. 100% of them closed below the original ask.

### How these sales were negotiated

- **Sold vs original ask**: 97% of the original ask
- **Closed below ask**: 100% of 3 sales
- **Listed → in contract**: 89 days (about 13 weeks)
- **In contract → closed**: 96 days (about 14 weeks)

Across the 3 of these sales with a published asking price, the median closed at 97% of what it originally asked. 100% of them closed below the original ask.

Half of these homes were in contract within 89 days (about 13 weeks) of coming to market, based on the 3 with a recorded listing date.

Once a deal was agreed, closing took a further 96 days (about 14 weeks), based on the 3 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 3 one-bedroom sales at The Vanderbilt, July 2026 – August 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 The Vanderbilt, 2016 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 |
| --- | --- | --- |
| 2016 | $1,245/ft² | 4 (thin) |
| 2017 | $1,340/ft² | 12 |
| 2018 | $1,389/ft² | 12 |
| 2019 | $1,247/ft² | 8 |
| 2020 | $1,188/ft² | 4 (thin) |
| 2021 | $1,232/ft² | 15 |
| 2022 | $1,281/ft² | 18 |
| 2023 | $1,224/ft² | 12 |
| 2024 | $1,297/ft² | 3 (thin) |
| 2025 | $1,236/ft² | 14 |
| 2026 | $1,266/ft² | 4 (thin) |

Years marked "thin" rest on fewer than 5 sales, where a single unusual apartment moves the median a long way. Read those points as the small samples they are rather than as the market turning.

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.
