📊 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 Port Morris, 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.

Port Morris sees its strongest closing activity in February, April, August, October, November, and December — 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.

What This Means for Sellers
Port Morris is a two-family market — 40.5% of recent sales. Two-family houses draw a split buyer pool: owner-occupants who want the second unit to offset the mortgage, and small investors pricing off the rent roll. The same house can be valued two different ways, and the stronger number usually comes from the buyer who intends to live in it. Documenting legal use, current rents, and lease status before listing keeps the sale from stalling in due diligence.
