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 studio sales at Mandarin Oriental is $2,550,000, based on 6 sales between December 2023 and December 2024. This home is asking $1,975,000, $575,000 below that median. The middle half of those sales closed between $2,343,750 and $2,662,500.

- **Median closed price**: $2,550,000
- **Middle half**: $2,343,750 – $2,662,500
- **Based on**: 6 studio sales at Mandarin Oriental
- **Period**: December 2023 – December 2024
- **Median $/ft²**: $4,104/ft²

Across the 6 of these sales with a published asking price, the median closed at 99.2% of what it originally asked. 50% of them closed below the original ask.

### How these sales were negotiated

- **Sold vs original ask**: 99.2% of the original ask
- **Closed below ask**: 50% of 6 sales
- **In contract → closed**: 12 days

Across the 6 of these sales with a published asking price, the median closed at 99.2% of what it originally asked. 50% of them closed below the original ask.

Once a deal was agreed, closing took a further 12 days, based on the 6 with both dates recorded.

Based on 6 studio sales at Mandarin Oriental, December 2023 – December 2024. 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 Mandarin Oriental, 2023 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 |
| --- | --- | --- |
| 2023 | $5,293/ft² | 10 |
| 2024 | $4,574/ft² | 8 |
| 2025 | $3,537/ft² | 3 (thin) |
| 2026 | $3,141/ft² | 3 (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.

## Property Tax History

Taxes at 685 5th Avenue #8E were $21,828 in 2026, down 0.9% from 2025.

| Year | Tax Assessment | Land | Additions | Billable Value | Property Tax | Tax Rate |
| --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- |
| 2026 (FY 2026/27) | $178,966 | $43,745 | $135,221 | $174,621 | $21,828 | 12.5% (estimated) |
| 2025 (FY 2025/26) | $185,912 | $43,745 | $142,167 | $176,286 | $22,036 | 12.5% (estimated) |
| 2024 (FY 2024/25) | $174,867 | $43,745 | $131,122 | $174,867 | $21,858 | 12.5% |

The City has not published the official FY2026/27 and FY2025/26 tax rates yet. 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.

Figures are the New York City Department of Finance assessment roll for tax lot 1012891017. 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.
