### How these sales were negotiated

- **Sale-to-list price**: 93.8% (6 sales)
- **Sold below asking**: 100% (6 sales)
- **Typical time to find a buyer**: 131 days (9 sales)

Based on two-bedroom sales at RIVIERA APARTMENTS 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.

Based on recorded co-op two-bedroom sales in Washington Heights. 2026 is year-to-date.

Sales data through September 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.
