## The Private Brokerage Advantage

As an independent luxury buyer representative, Régis shares 50% of the buyer-side commission he actually receives on your purchase. Eligible buyers receive that Buyer Commission Share directly at closing to offset closing costs, down payments, or renovations. The figures below are illustrative, based on a **3% buyer-broker commission**; your share follows the commission offered on the transaction.

- **Contract Purchase Price**: $2,060,000
- **Illustrative Buyer Commission Share**: -$30,900*
- **Illustrative Net Cost**: $2,029,100

*Illustrative Buyer Savings of $30,900 — 50% of a 3% buyer-broker commission, shared at closing.*

## Sales Evidence

### Recent closed sales

5 apartments at 5-12 51st Avenue have recorded sales since September 2021, the most recent for $1,466,280 in November 2024. Prices are the figures recorded with the City, not asking prices.

| Unit | Beds | Sq Ft | Sold Price | $/ft² | Sold | Source |
| --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- |
| 3-B (Apartment) | 2 | 1,073 | $1,466,280 | $1,367/ft² | November 1, 2024 | City record · MLS |
| 3-A (Apartment) | 2 | 1,060 | $1,425,000 | $1,344/ft² | October 31, 2024 | City record · MLS |
| 1-A (Apartment) | 2 | 1,086 | $1,525,339 | $1,405/ft² | October 31, 2024 | City record · MLS |
| 2-B (Apartment) | 1 | 674 | $903,188 | $1,340/ft² | October 24, 2024 | City record · MLS |
| 2-A (Apartment) | 1 | 656 | $896,060 | $1,366/ft² | October 24, 2024 | 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 one-bedroom sales in Long Island City is $945,000, based on 122 sales between September 2024 and July 2026. This home is asking $2,060,000, $1,115,000 above that median. The middle half of those sales closed between $864,124 and $1,065,000.

- **Median closed price**: $945,000
- **Middle half**: $864,124 – $1,065,000
- **Based on**: 122 condo one-bedroom sales in Long Island City
- **Period**: September 2024 – July 2026
- **Median $/ft²**: $1,524/ft²

Across the 105 of these sales with a published asking price, the median closed at 99.6% of what it originally asked. 51% 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 Long Island City instead.

### How these sales were negotiated

- **Sold vs original ask**: 99.6% of the original ask
- **Closed below ask**: 51% of 105 sales
- **Listed → in contract**: 49 days (about 7 weeks)
- **In contract → closed**: 85 days (about 12 weeks)

Across the 105 of these sales with a published asking price, the median closed at 99.6% of what it originally asked. 51% of them closed below the original ask.

Half of these homes were in contract within 49 days (about 7 weeks) of coming to market, based on the 104 with a recorded listing date.

Once a deal was agreed, closing took a further 85 days (about 12 weeks), based on the 103 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 122 condo one-bedroom sales in Long Island City, 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 condo and house one-bedroom sales in Long Island City, 2016 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 |
| --- | --- | --- |
| 2016 | $848,000 | 13 |
| 2017 | $840,000 | 26 |
| 2018 | $766,890 | 34 |
| 2019 | $920,425 | 95 |
| 2020 | $862,665 | 48 |
| 2021 | $900,000 | 217 |
| 2022 | $980,256 | 78 |
| 2023 | $870,000 | 94 |
| 2024 | $950,146 | 66 |
| 2025 | $903,500 | 72 |
| 2026 | $975,000 | 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 Long Island City 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.
