Based on co-op two-bedroom sales in Yorkville.

Square footage is recorded for only 62 of these 109 sales (57%), 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.

This building has not had enough comparable sales of its own in the period to support a median, so the benchmark is drawn from Yorkville instead.

### How these sales were negotiated

- **Sale-to-list price**: 96.9% (103 sales)
- **Sold below asking**: 60% (103 sales)
- **Typical time to find a buyer**: 76 days (96 sales)
- **Typical time to close**: 91 days (103 sales)

Based on co-op two-bedroom sales in Yorkville 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.

Sales data through July 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.
