## Sales Evidence

### Recent closed sales

5 apartments at 161 East 90th Street have recorded sales since September 2021, the most recent for $1,230,000 in November 2025. Prices are the figures recorded with the City, not asking prices.

| Unit | Beds | Sq Ft | Sold Price | $/ft² | Sold | Source |
| --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- |
| 3B (Apartment) | 2 | — | $1,230,000 | — | November 24, 2025 | City record · MLS |
| 3A (Apartment) | 1 | 844 | $680,000 | $806/ft² | January 15, 2025 | City record · MLS |
| 5B (Apartment) | 2 | — | $1,100,000 | — | December 16, 2024 | City record · MLS |
| 8C (Apartment) | 3 | — | $1,675,000 | — | June 5, 2024 | City record · MLS |
| PHB (Apartment) | 1 | — | $1,325,000 | — | January 4, 2023 | 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 co-op three-bedroom sales in Upper East Side is $2,432,500, based on 85 sales between September 2024 and July 2026. This home is asking $1,795,000, $637,500 below that median. The middle half of those sales closed between $1,975,000 and $3,200,000.

- **Median closed price**: $2,432,500
- **Middle half**: $1,975,000 – $3,200,000
- **Based on**: 85 co-op three-bedroom sales in Upper East Side
- **Period**: September 2024 – July 2026

Square footage is recorded for only 19 of these 85 sales (22%), 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 74 of these sales with a published asking price, the median closed at 96.3% of what it originally asked. 73% 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**: 96.3% of the original ask
- **Closed below ask**: 73% of 74 sales
- **Listed → in contract**: 59 days (about 8 weeks)
- **In contract → closed**: 104 days (about 15 weeks)

Across the 74 of these sales with a published asking price, the median closed at 96.3% of what it originally asked. 73% of them closed below the original ask.

Half of these homes were in contract within 59 days (about 8 weeks) of coming to market, based on the 79 with a recorded listing date.

Once a deal was agreed, closing took a further 104 days (about 15 weeks), based on the 79 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 85 co-op three-bedroom sales in Upper East Side, September 2024 – July 2026. Each figure counts only the sales that recorded the dates it needs, which is why the denominators differ.

### Price trend

Median sold price for co-op three-bedroom sales in Upper East Side, 2017 to 2026. The series is held to one bedroom count and one ownership type for the same reason: an unfiltered median tracks which apartments sold, not what they were worth.

| Year | Median sold price | Sales |
| --- | --- | --- |
| 2017 | $2,990,000 | 37 |
| 2018 | $2,250,000 | 40 |
| 2019 | $2,089,500 | 36 |
| 2020 | $1,985,000 | 27 |
| 2021 | $2,003,666 | 59 |
| 2022 | $2,120,000 | 75 |
| 2023 | $2,100,000 | 45 |
| 2024 | $2,125,000 | 38 |
| 2025 | $2,237,500 | 51 |
| 2026 | $2,695,000 | 27 |

This building does not have enough sales with a recorded floor area to chart its own price per square foot, which is usual for a co-op. The series above follows comparable homes across Upper East Side instead.

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.

## Property Taxes

This apartment is part of a co-op that is taxed as one lot shared across 27 apartments. The corporation’s 2026 property tax bill was $521,089 for the whole building. Shareholders cover it through their monthly maintenance rather than a separate bill for this unit.
