📊 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 Neponsit, 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 — Queens. 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: March 2026.

Neponsit, Queens at a Glance

Neponsit is a small, affluent beachfront neighborhood on the Rockaway Peninsula in southern Queens, bordered by the Atlantic Ocean to the south, Jamaica Bay to the north, Belle Harbor to the east, and Breezy Point to the west. The housing stock consists of large single-family detached homes, many on oversized lots with ocean or bay views. The A train at Beach 116th Street is the nearest subway station.

The neighborhood was developed in the early 1900s as a beachside residential community and has maintained its low-density, upscale character. Properties in Neponsit command some of the highest prices on the peninsula. The neighborhood experienced damage during Hurricane Sandy but has rebuilt, with many homes incorporating updated flood-mitigation construction.
