📊 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 Kingsbridge Heights, 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 — Bronx. Period: April 2025 – March 2026. Excludes $0 transfers, nominal sales, non-arms-length transactions, and bulk portfolio transfers identified through same-date/same-price pattern analysis. Note: NYC Department of Finance reports Kingsbridge Heights together with University Heights as a combined dataset. The figures on this page reflect that combined data. Last updated: May 2026.

Takeaway for Sellers

Kingsbridge Heights sees its strongest closing activity in March, May, June, September, and November — 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.

What This Means for Sellers

Kingsbridge Heights's market is dominated by co-op apartment sales, which represent 54.4% of all recorded transactions. Most buyers entering the neighborhood are looking for apartments in elevator or walk-up buildings, and most sellers are competing with other co-op units. If you own a single-family home or condo here, you're in a smaller, less competitive segment where pricing strategy and marketing can have outsized impact. For co-op sellers, understanding building-specific dynamics — maintenance costs, board approval timing, building reputation — matters more than neighborhood-level trends.
