MARKET SUMMARY

Quarter-over-quarter, the total sales volume of Queens sponsor units increased by 24.47%, from $131,819,771 in 4Q22 to $164,077,512 this past quarter. The total number of sales increased by 19.87%, from 151 total sales in 4Q22 to 181 sales this past quarter.

Quarter-over-quarter, the median price per square foot decreased by 1.0% from $1,187 psf to $1,175 psf. In that same span, the median price paid for a Queens sponsor unit decreased by 7.7%, from $784,053 to $724,000. Year-over-year, the median price paid per square foot decreased from $1,363 in 1Q22 to $1,175 in 1Q23, while the median sales price decreased by from $1,084,141 to $724,000. This annual price decrease was largely attributed to several more sales amongst studio and 1-bedroom apartments relative to 1Q22, and also less sales from higher priced areas like Long Island City.

This past quarter, the highest sales price and price per square foot was seen at Skyline Tower, 23-15 44th Drive, #PH308 which sold for $2,900,000 ($2,189 psf).
