The snapshot
- •Closings tracked, last 6 months: 1,783
- •Median sold price, last 6 months: $865,000
- •Median sold $/sqft, last 6 months: $965
What the numbers say
Resideline tracked 1,783 closed sales in Manhattan over the last six months, with a median closing price of $865,000. That median is the midpoint of what buyers actually paid, not what sellers hoped to get, which is why it moves differently from the asking prices you see on listing sites. These are the closings Resideline tracks and may differ from complete county or municipal records. The large tracked sample provides substantial market-level evidence. 98% of the Manhattan closings we track here are condos, so these figures describe that segment rather than every property type in the city, and the citywide $/sqft figure primarily reflects that segment as well. Across the 689 closings with usable living area, the middle half sold between $746 and $1,274 per square foot.

From market read to offer price
In a market this concentrated in condos, pricing any one property starts with its own segment, not the citywide line. The decision still comes down to one property and one number: what it is actually worth and what you should pay. Every Resideline report opens with this same market snapshot for the subject's exact ZIP code, then gives you the property's value, the sold comps behind it, and a market rent estimate. Pricing a specific deal? The free ARV calculator and rental property calculator run the numbers in about a minute.
And we show our work. Every estimate is frozen while the home is for sale and graded against the real closing price after it sells. See the live accuracy dashboard for the receipts, or read how the Area Market Snapshot works.
Run any Manhattan address through Resideline and you will see the local market and the property's value together, in one report.

The local market statistics in this report are calculated from closed sales tracked by Resideline. Transaction coverage may differ from complete county or municipal records.
Every local market figure on this page is computed from closed sales Resideline tracked in Manhattan over the last six months, and is refreshed when the data is. The closings we track across Manhattan (a county subdivision) are not limited to listing-service sales: they also include foreclosure deeds, estate and family transfers, and other off-market sales that portal medians exclude, which is why 42% of the 1,783 closings in this window never appeared on a listing service, and the median of MLS-listed sales alone was $850,000.
