Those are excluded from the benchmark below. ### How this price compares - **This home**: $835,000 - **Median sold price**: $902,500 - **Difference**: -$67,500 (-7.5%) - **Comparable sales**: 4 - **Sales from**: December 2023 – October 2025 - **Middle half of those sales**: $865,000 – $1,097,500 Based on two-bedroom sales at 156 East 79TH Street. Square footage is recorded for only 2 of these 4 sales (50%), 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**: 84% (4 sales) - **Sold below asking**: 100% (4 sales) - **Typical time to find a buyer**: 98 days (4 sales) - **Typical time to close**: 122 days (4 sales) Based on two-bedroom sales at 156 East 79TH Street 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. ### Price trend Median sale price, co-op two-bedroom sales in Upper East Side | Year | Median sold price | Sales | | --- | --- | --- | | 2016 | $1,225,000 | 25 | | 2017 | $1,299,500 | 88 | | 2018 | $1,340,000 | 79 | | 2019 | $1,300,000 | 75 | | 2020 | $1,299,000 | 41 | | 2021 | $1,275,000 | 141 | | 2022 | $1,374,250 | 120 | | 2023 | $1,300,000 | 99 | | 2024 | $1,270,000 | 99 | | 2025 | $1,350,000 | 99 | | 2026 YTD | $1,417,500 | 54 | Based on recorded co-op two-bedroom sales in Upper East Side. 2026 is year-to-date.
