## Sales Evidence

### Recent closed sales

11 apartments at Twelve Twelve 5th have recorded sales since September 2021, the most recent for $752,500 in January 2026. Prices are the figures recorded with the City, not asking prices.

| Unit | Beds | Sq Ft | Sold Price | $/ft² | Sold | Source |
| --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- |
| 4A (Apartment) | 3 | 2,389 | $752,500 | $315/ft² | January 1, 2026 | City record |
| 8C (Apartment) | 1 | — | $1,125,000 | — | June 16, 2025 | City record · MLS |
| 6A (Apartment) | 3 | 2,389 | $2,982,834 | $1,249/ft² | March 1, 2025 | City record |
| 7B (Apartment) | 4 | 2,750 | $4,960,000 | $1,804/ft² | July 31, 2024 | City record · MLS |
| 16-S (Apartment) | 3 | 3,045 | $6,850,000 | $2,250/ft² | September 20, 2023 | City record · MLS |
| 5B (Apartment) | 3 | 1,804 | $3,300,000 | $1,829/ft² | May 11, 2023 | City record |

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 condo two-bedroom sales in East Harlem is $742,500, based on 18 sales between September 2024 and June 2026. This home is asking $1,970,000, $1,227,500 above that median. The middle half of those sales closed between $577,500 and $971,000.

- **Median closed price**: $742,500
- **Middle half**: $577,500 – $971,000
- **Based on**: 18 condo two-bedroom sales in East Harlem
- **Period**: September 2024 – June 2026
- **Median $/ft²**: $1,024/ft²

Across the 14 of these sales with a published asking price, the median closed at 94.8% of what it originally asked. 86% 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 East Harlem instead.

### How these sales were negotiated

- **Sold vs original ask**: 94.8% of the original ask
- **Closed below ask**: 86% of 14 sales
- **Listed → in contract**: 75 days (about 11 weeks)
- **In contract → closed**: 80 days (about 11 weeks)

Across the 14 of these sales with a published asking price, the median closed at 94.8% of what it originally asked. 86% of them closed below the original ask.

Half of these homes were in contract within 75 days (about 11 weeks) of coming to market, based on the 14 with a recorded listing date.

Once a deal was agreed, closing took a further 80 days (about 11 weeks), based on the 14 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 18 condo two-bedroom sales in East Harlem, September 2024 – June 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 Twelve Twelve 5th, 2021 to 2023. 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 |
| --- | --- | --- |
| 2021 | $2,363/ft² | 3 (thin) |
| 2022 | $1,815/ft² | 3 (thin) |
| 2023 | $1,829/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.

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.

Where an abatement applies, Property Tax is the amount owed after it. Abatements are granted to the property and do not necessarily transfer to a new owner.

Figures are the New York City Department of Finance assessment roll for tax lot 1016071118. 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.
