Square footage is recorded for only 4 of these 36 sales (11%), 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 Brooklyn Heights instead. ### How these sales were negotiated - **Sale-to-list price**: 97.4% (36 sales) - **Sold below asking**: 61% (36 sales) - **Typical time to find a buyer**: 57 days (36 sales) - **Typical time to close**: 79 days (36 sales) Based on co-op studio sales in Brooklyn Heights 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 studio sales in Brooklyn Heights | Year | Median sold price | Sales | | --- | --- | --- | | 2017 | $476,900 | 14 | | 2018 | $410,000 | 11 | | 2019 | $400,000 | 13 | | 2020 | $405,000 | 12 | | 2021 | $431,341 | 18 | | 2022 | $399,000 | 17 | | 2023 | $455,000 | 22 | | 2024 | $430,000 | 20 | | 2025 | $427,800 | 18 | Based on recorded co-op studio sales in Brooklyn Heights. Sales data through May 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. ## Price and Property History for 70 REMSEN Street, Unit 8J Review the recorded listing activity for 70 REMSEN Street, Unit 8J, including asking-price changes and prior market dates. - **Latest price change**: Reduced by $10,000, or 3%, on August 20, 2026 - **Originally listed**: March 25, 2026 at $375,000 - **Last sold**: $325,000 on August 19, 2026 | Date | Price | Listing event | | --- | --- | --- | | August 20, 2026 | $325,000 | Asking price reduced by $10,000, or 3% | | August 19, 2026 | $325,000 | Sold | | May 18, 2026 | $335,000 | Entered contract | | April 18, 2026 | $335,000 | Asking price reduced by $40,000, or 10.7% | | March 25, 2026 | $375,000 | Listed for sale by Douglas Elliman Real Estate | ## Brooklyn Heights Overview of Brooklyn Heights [Explore Brooklyn Heights](https://realestaterebatesnewyork.com/neighborhoods/new-york-city/brooklyn/brooklyn-heights) · [All Neighborhoods](https://realestaterebatesnewyork.com/neighborhoods) ### Nearby Brooklyn Heights - [Downtown Brooklyn real estate for sale](https://realestaterebatesnewyork.com/neighborhoods/new-york-city/brooklyn/downtown-brooklyn) - [Cobble Hill real estate for sale](https://realestaterebatesnewyork.com/neighborhoods/new-york-city/brooklyn/cobble-hill) - [DUMBO real estate for sale](https://realestaterebatesnewyork.com/neighborhoods/new-york-city/brooklyn/dumbo) - [Vinegar Hill real estate for sale](https://realestaterebatesnewyork.com/neighborhoods/new-york-city/brooklyn/vinegar-hill) - [Columbia St real estate for sale](https://realestaterebatesnewyork.com/neighborhoods/new-york-city/brooklyn/columbia-st) - [Boerum Hill real estate for sale](https://realestaterebatesnewyork.com/neighborhoods/new-york-city/brooklyn/boerum-hill) ## Related Links - [Brooklyn Heights neighborhood guide](https://realestaterebatesnewyork.com/neighborhoods/new-york-city/brooklyn/brooklyn-heights) - [Estimate your Buyer Commission Share and closing costs](https://realestaterebatesnewyork.com/calculators/buyer-closing-cost-calculator) - [Contact Régis Roumila](https://realestaterebatesnewyork.com/contact) --- > RLS IDX Data display by Real Estate Rebate Team.
