## Sales Evidence

### Recent closed sales

3 apartments at 27 East 79th Street have recorded sales since September 2021, the most recent for $7,000,000 in June 2025. Prices are the figures recorded with the City, not asking prices.

| Unit | Beds | Sq Ft | Sold Price | $/ft² | Sold | Source |
| --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- |
| DUP11 (Duplex) | 4 | 3,006 | $7,000,000 | $2,329/ft² | June 5, 2025 | City record · MLS |
| PH (Apartment) | 5 | 4,346 | $17,763,800 | $4,087/ft² | April 27, 2022 | City record · MLS |
| DUP7 (Apartment) | 3 | 3,006 | $8,700,000 | $2,894/ft² | March 15, 2022 | City record · MLS |

Every row is a recorded transaction, including ancillary spaces such as storage and staff rooms where they were sold separately. Those are excluded from the benchmark below.

### How this price compares

The median closed price for comparable condo five-bedroom sales in Upper East Side is $9,000,000, based on 5 sales between May 2025 and May 2026. This home is asking $8,450,000, $550,000 below that median. The middle half of those sales closed between $8,400,000 and $11,735,563.

- **Median closed price**: $9,000,000
- **Middle half**: $8,400,000 – $11,735,563
- **Based on**: 5 condo five-bedroom sales in Upper East Side
- **Period**: May 2025 – May 2026
- **Median $/ft²**: $2,772/ft²

Across the 5 of these sales with a published asking price, the median closed at 102.7% of what it originally asked. 40% of them closed below the original ask.

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

### How these sales were negotiated

- **Sold vs original ask**: 102.7% of the original ask
- **Closed below ask**: 40% of 5 sales
- **Listed → in contract**: 233 days (about 33 weeks)
- **In contract → closed**: 63 days (about 9 weeks)

Across the 5 of these sales with a published asking price, the median closed at 102.7% of what it originally asked. 40% of them closed below the original ask.

Half of these homes were in contract within 233 days (about 33 weeks) of coming to market, based on the 5 with a recorded listing date.

Once a deal was agreed, closing took a further 63 days (about 9 weeks), based on the 3 with both dates recorded.

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 condo five-bedroom sales in Upper East Side, May 2025 – May 2026. 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.
