📊 Why this data is more reliable than other sites

The numbers on this page come from the NYC Department of Finance public records — every legally recorded property sale in Ocean Parkway, not just MLS-listed transactions. Sites like Zillow and StreetEasy only capture listings that go through their platforms, missing FSBO sales, off-market deals, and transfers that never hit the MLS. This dataset includes all of them.

We also remove bulk portfolio transfers, nominal sales, and non-arms-length transactions that would distort median prices — cleaning that most data sources don't do. The result is a more accurate picture of what individual homes are actually selling for in your market.

Data source: NYC Department of Finance, Rolling Sales Data — Brooklyn. Period: March 2025 – February 2026. Excludes $0 transfers, nominal sales, non-arms-length transactions, and bulk portfolio transfers identified through same-date/same-price pattern analysis. Last updated: April 2026.

Takeaway for Sellers

Ocean Parkway sees its strongest closing activity in March and June through August — the months highlighted in orange above. These peaks indicate when buyer demand is highest and the most transactions close.

Since the typical sale takes 3 months from listing to closing you should be listing approximately 3 months before these peak windows to position your home when competition among buyers is strongest.

The optimal listing date depends on your property type, your timeline, and current inventory levels. A strategy session can pinpoint the right window for your specific home.

Neighborhood Profile

Ocean Parkway, Brooklyn at a Glance

Ocean Parkway is a residential corridor in south-central Brooklyn, organized around the scenic Ocean Parkway boulevard — a six-lane road with parallel bike and pedestrian paths designed by Frederick Law Olmsted and Calvert Vaux in the 1870s. The neighborhood extends from Prospect Park in the north to Coney Island in the south, with the B and Q subway lines running beneath the parkway.

The housing stock along Ocean Parkway is dominated by mid-rise co-op apartment buildings from the 1920s through 1960s, interspersed with single-family detached homes and some newer condo developments. The neighborhood has long been home to diverse immigrant communities, including significant Russian-speaking, Central Asian, and Orthodox Jewish populations. Parks, tree-lined streets, and proximity to Prospect Park give the area a green, residential character uncommon in much of Brooklyn.
