Square footage is recorded for only 44 of these 159 sales (28%), 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. This building has not had enough comparable sales of its own in the period to support a median, so the benchmark is drawn from Lenox Hill instead. ### How these sales were negotiated - **Sale-to-list price**: 94.6% (153 sales) - **Sold below asking**: 73% (153 sales) - **Typical time to find a buyer**: 69 days (151 sales) - **Typical time to close**: 100 days (154 sales) Based on co-op three-bedroom sales in Lenox Hill 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 three-bedroom sales in Lenox Hill | Year | Median sold price | Sales | | --- | --- | --- | | 2016 | $2,295,000 | 11 | | 2017 | $2,500,000 | 59 | | 2018 | $2,572,500 | 54 | | 2019 | $2,375,000 | 79 | | 2020 | $2,167,500 | 38 | | 2021 | $2,202,500 | 96 | | 2022 | $2,475,000 | 108 | | 2023 | $2,250,000 | 90 | | 2024 | $2,460,000 | 72 | | 2025 | $2,550,000 | 89 | | 2026 YTD | $2,750,000 | 59 | Based on recorded co-op three-bedroom sales in Lenox Hill. 2026 is year-to-date. Sales data through August 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 140 East 72ND Street, Unit 15C Review the recorded listing activity for 140 East 72ND Street, Unit 15C, including asking-price changes and prior market dates. - **Latest price change**: Reduced by $170,000, or 5.2%, on September 18, 2026 - **Originally listed**: May 12, 2026 at $3,295,000 - **Last sold**: $3,125,000 on September 17, 2026 | Date | Price | Listing event | | --- | --- | --- | | September 18, 2026 | $3,125,000 | Asking price reduced by $170,000, or 5.2% | | September 17, 2026 | $3,125,000 | Sold | | June 12, 2026 | $3,295,000 | Entered contract | | May 12, 2026 | $3,295,000 | Listed for sale by Corcoran Group | ## Lenox Hill Overview of Lenox Hill [Explore Lenox Hill](https://realestaterebatesnewyork.com/neighborhoods/new-york-city/manhattan/lenox-hill) · [All Neighborhoods](https://realestaterebatesnewyork.com/neighborhoods) ### Nearby Lenox Hill - [Inwood real estate for sale](https://realestaterebatesnewyork.com/neighborhoods/new-york-city/manhattan/inwood) ## Related Links - [Lenox Hill neighborhood guide](https://realestaterebatesnewyork.com/neighborhoods/new-york-city/manhattan/lenox-hill) - [Estimate your Buyer Commission Share and closing costs](https://realestaterebatesnewyork.com/calculators/buyer-closing-cost-calculator) - [Contact Régis Roumila](https://realestaterebatesnewyork.com/contact) --- > RLS IDX Data display by Real Estate Rebate Team.
