Queens and Bronx figures cover 1–4 family homes. Brooklyn figures cover all residential property types, including co-ops and condos, so price levels are not directly comparable across all three columns.

These are monthly figures. For 12 months of recorded sales by neighborhood and property type from NYC Department of Finance records, see the full Queens, Brooklyn and Bronx market reports.

* Brooklyn homes sold (541) is well below both the prior month (1,028) and the same month last year (1,011), which usually means late-reported closings; the figure and the months-of-inventory calculation that depends on it may be revised.
