Those are excluded from the benchmark below. ### How this price compares - **This home**: $749,000 - **Median sold price**: $775,000 - **Difference**: -$26,000 (-3.4%) - **Comparable sales**: 15 - **Sales from**: March 2022 – June 2026 - **Middle half of those sales**: $732,000 – $821,250 Based on two-bedroom sales at 1270 5TH Avenue. Square footage is recorded for only 4 of these 15 sales (27%), 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**: 97.4% (11 sales) - **Sold below asking**: 73% (11 sales) - **Typical time to find a buyer**: 92 days (11 sales) - **Typical time to close**: 89 days (11 sales) Based on two-bedroom sales at 1270 5TH Avenue with the required listing and closing data.

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.
