Those are excluded from the benchmark below. ### How this price compares The median closed price for comparable one-bedroom sales at 128 West 138TH Street is $300,000, based on 5 sales between September 2021 and September 2023. This home is asking $349,000, $49,000 above that median. The middle half of those sales closed between $282,500 and $305,000. - **Median closed price**: $300,000 - **Middle half**: $282,500 – $305,000 - **Based on**: 5 one-bedroom sales at 128 West 138TH Street - **Period**: September 2021 – September 2023 Square footage is recorded for only 1 of these 5 sales (20%), 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. Across the 5 of these sales with a published asking price, the median closed at 92.4% of what it originally asked. 100% of them closed below the original ask. ### How these sales were negotiated - **Sold vs original ask**: 92.4% of the original ask - **Closed below ask**: 100% of 5 sales - **Listed → in contract**: 141 days (about 20 weeks) - **In contract → closed**: 83 days (about 12 weeks) Across the 5 of these sales with a published asking price, the median closed at 92.4% of what it originally asked. 100% of them closed below the original ask. Half of these homes were in contract within 141 days (about 20 weeks) of coming to market, based on the 4 with a recorded listing date. Once a deal was agreed, closing took a further 83 days (about 12 weeks), based on the 4 with both dates recorded. A co-op board package and its interview account for much of that. 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 5 one-bedroom sales at 128 West 138TH Street, September 2021 – September 2023. Each figure counts only the sales that recorded the dates it needs, which is why the denominators differ. 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.
