Those are excluded from the benchmark below. ### How this price compares - **This home**: $3,750,000 - **Median sold price**: $1,537,500 - **Difference**: +$2,212,500 (+143.9%) - **Comparable sales**: 4 - **Sales from**: March 2022 – May 2025 - **Middle half of those sales**: $1,240,000 – $1,758,250 Based on two-bedroom sales at Oliver Cromwell. Square footage is recorded for only 1 of these 4 sales (25%), 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**: 82.2% (3 sales) - **Sold below asking**: 100% (3 sales) - **Typical time to find a buyer**: 97 days (3 sales) - **Typical time to close**: 108 days (3 sales) Based on two-bedroom sales at Oliver Cromwell 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 Lincoln Square | Year | Median sold price | Sales | | --- | --- | --- | | 2017 | $1,540,000 | 26 | | 2018 | $1,520,000 | 36 | | 2019 | $1,325,000 | 18 | | 2020 | $1,240,000 | 19 | | 2021 | $1,190,000 | 50 | | 2022 | $1,384,509 | 39 | | 2023 | $1,380,000 | 41 | | 2024 | $1,451,000 | 43 | | 2025 | $1,325,000 | 29 | | 2026 YTD | $1,585,000 | 17 | Based on recorded co-op two-bedroom sales in Lincoln Square. 2026 is year-to-date. Sales data through July 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.
