This home is asking $3,450,000, $125,000 below that median. The middle half of those sales closed between $2,600,000 and $4,655,000. - **Median closed price**: $3,575,000 - **Middle half**: $2,600,000 – $4,655,000 - **Based on**: 131 condo three-bedroom sales in Upper West Side - **Period**: September 2024 – July 2026 - **Median $/ft²**: $1,862/ft² Across the 115 of these sales with a published asking price, the median closed at 96% of what it originally asked. 80% of them closed below the original ask. This building has not had enough comparable sales of its own in the period to support a median, so the benchmark is drawn from Upper West Side instead. ### How these sales were negotiated - **Sold vs original ask**: 96% of the original ask - **Closed below ask**: 80% of 115 sales - **Listed → in contract**: 71 days (about 10 weeks) - **In contract → closed**: 60 days (about 9 weeks) Across the 115 of these sales with a published asking price, the median closed at 96% of what it originally asked. 80% of them closed below the original ask. Half of these homes were in contract within 71 days (about 10 weeks) of coming to market, based on the 110 with a recorded listing date. Once a deal was agreed, closing took a further 60 days (about 9 weeks), based on the 113 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 131 condo three-bedroom sales in Upper West Side, September 2024 – July 2026. Each figure counts only the sales that recorded the dates it needs, which is why the denominators differ. ### Price trend Median sold price for condo and house three-bedroom sales in Upper West Side, 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 | $4,000,000 | 31 | | 2018 | $3,429,453 | 46 | | 2019 | $3,175,000 | 41 | | 2020 | $2,700,000 | 37 | | 2021 | $2,800,000 | 69 | | 2022 | $3,400,000 | 67 | | 2023 | $3,550,000 | 56 | | 2024 | $3,375,000 | 64 | | 2025 | $3,600,000 | 55 | | 2026 | $3,587,500 | 54 | 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 Upper West Side 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. ## Estimated Monthly Payment **$20,030 / month**, assuming a 20% down payment ($690,000), a 6.5% interest rate and a 30-year term. The page's calculator lets a buyer change all three. - **Principal & Interest**: $17,445 - **Common Charges**: $2,585 Estimates only. Actual payments may vary. Confirm terms with your lender. ## Potential NYC Second-Home Tax This property may be subject to New York City’s non-primary residence surcharge if it is not used as a qualifying primary residence. The surcharge is based on the NYC Department of Finance market value, not the listing price.
